This game is great! The instructions were a bit wordy but after trying a few times, I figured out how the game is supposed to work. Still couldn't get to the end, but it was fun.

Interesting concept! the collision is abit unforgiving and the UI to gamble the money is abit hard to locate. nice idea though!

I like that there are orcas flying over the screen and the sheep animations are great too but I got a bit confused why I keep falling off is it because I shouldn’t touch the grass?

Developer

Yea. I have the brush as a stationary obstacle while the sheep are moving obstacles.

Really fun game. Don't know what sharks have to do with the game though. That seemed kind of odd. But apart from that, well done game!

very fun game, two quick tipps though,first the text wall was hard to get through , maybe make a system that only displays the current line but idk that's jus a me issue, secondly in game dev you should avoid y and z as keys cuz they are switched on some keyboards for example german ones, sot this can be a little weird but cool game otherwise

Interesting concept, feels a bit weird though; I didn't really understand why the fish were spawning (were they sharks?). Apart from that you had good music and appealing visuals, good job!

the idea is cool and unique and the game itself is great, but the game itself feels odd... Idk how to explain it but it just feels weird, prob just a me problem though

Concept is cool but the rng is brutal.


Are the whales/sharks suppose to be a reference to something? They really seem off compared to everything else.

My idea was to add a loan shark business card as a power up and the shark theming stemed from that. I thought it would be a fun idea to have a shark chase you as long as you had debts to pay off, as an extra incentive to do so. I probably could have themed it better.

Interesting concept but the game seemed unfair to me on several occasions. I lost because of the RNG. It didn't want to send me that little red ball (I don't know what it is) to reload.

This is the most cracked up idea. Good job!

Interesting concept! I was a little bit confused though, but still had fun. Love the goat sprite
