It's totally reproducible. I first go straight down to get the sprint powerup. With it I go up and then left to get this red one:

As soon as I touch it, the game crashes. I also get "Memory protection violation" error in the console, if that helps.

The game is not saving my sounds preferences after restart. Running on Linux.

Totally understandable! I think even the achievements would scratch that itch of having some sense how well I'm doing vs how well it could go if I practice/try new things.

It did not crash if I got two sprint ones, the first one was still active though.

I think I can reproduce the crash. It crashed twice for me if I got 2 different power ups in the same run. For example the green one first and then it crashes when taking the red one.

Yeah, definitely I feel that I get more points and fun with just focusing on the sheep and keeping the x8 combo going. I still have not found organically other powerups, and if a killed a different animal it was purely by accident as it was on my path to the next sheep.

What a "cute" game :)

From a pure gameplay loop perspective, the game is very fun. I appreciate that I could play it with only the mouse.

On my first run I made over 900 points, without finding any powerups or catching anything other then sheep. I have no idea if that's good or bad, as the highscores were pretty low. On the second run, I got 970 with finding a single powerup up (the sprint one) and catching 2 rabbits. I also wondered to the left, it was almost empty and wasted some of my time.

Basically, I don't see why I would try a third time, as I have no context if my performance was good or bad, or any sense of progress. Perhaps some of the animals or powerups would only appear after achieving some score, or some other unlock system. Anything that would motivate me to actually run again, see if I can do better and be curious how the next unlock/achievement will alter the game.

I will be playing more though, to get a better sense of the balance etc. that you mentioned in the post.

Looks like it's working now! Thanks!

Now, back to playing :)

I bought for the Linux version - unfortunately, after the Unity logo I see a VHS tape, which disappears once clicked, and then all I get is black. I can alt-tab and alt-F4 just fine, the process manager shows the game using a modest 5% CPU in this state, so not sure whats going on. The logs also don't give an obvious answer.

I hope you'll release a Linux version once you're done with the Mac one, looking forward to playing this!
