I'll admit, I'm not a big fan of herding games. But there's something about this one that I can't quite put my finger on it. It might be the gentle farm music. The rolling green hills? Perhaps the gentle bleating of the sheep?
Actually, it's probably the gangs of sheep drifting around corners creating an actual warzone of explosionsThis is probably my favorite submission that I've played so far. Nice work!

What a concept, it was hilarious! Lots of fun causing explosions :D Loved the style and music paired with the explosive nature of it all hahah Great work!
I really like this one, it took me a while to get it and I caused a lot of accidental explosions. Once I got it it was very fun! well done guys!
Remember guys, always wear savety glasses when working with sheeps!
This is hilarious! I really liked the "chemistry" part in the game, had a great laugh while playing! Also, awesome visuals, the style is quite nice. Good job!
A really nice game t's really unusual but I maneged to break it by pressing esc 30 times
:D:D:D
ok, lots of fun. explosions are great. i mean its a bit buggy but hey - gamejams - and who gives a d... am I right? :D
Level two was not finishable because of the camera perspective / walls of the "barn" were blocking everything. Also the "flaming sheep pathfinding into gate/barn" didn't seem to work.
Also in the second level, the audio was clipping and playing a trillion times :D
Maybe it was because the "shepherding mechanic" was a bit buggy (sheep just stop, I can't even push them) maybe a bark + cooldown to make the sheep sort of dash opposite would give more freedom and a more differentiated way of controlling.
Maybe in the future "clumping / swarming / flocking" of the sheep when shepherded would be really cool :P if you know what I mean...
Nice idea! Funny to play. Congratulation on your submission!
Thank you so much for playing! Yeahh we definitely struggled a bit with the sheep movement, it has flocking/wandering/evasion but it took us too long to finetune the movement variables xD
Ya who cares!! :D its a lot of fun already. My favorite are the explosions
Thanks for making it and sharing!
