Really enjoyed this. I actually like that it was pretty easy, because it felt really relaxing in a good way. The music helped a lot like that, and even though you used pre-existing audio, it was a good match for the game. I've played a few shepherding games during this jam, and even though this one was the easiest, it also felt the best to play. Good job!

Awesome, so glad you liked it! We also found your game to be verrry satisfying to play. That's the main thing we were shooting for with this I think. Obviously, there's a decided lack of polish in certain areas, but we spent a fair amount of time just tuning the level and character scale and an even bigger amount of time getting the flocking behavior to work just right (it's that last part I think that hopefully sets us apart from a lot of the other herding games we've seen so far. We took our inspiration from several different Boids algorithms).
And on the off-chance it makes any difference, we did at least write the music ourselves, just not during the jam :-D
Thanks so much for playing!
