Thanks so much for the detailed live feedback, Hythrain — I’d definitely love to see the VOD once it’s up on YouTube, that would be awesome to watch . You’re spot on about the sound being a bit loud, that’s already on my list to optimize in future builds . Also, really appreciate the control suggestions — I plan to add full WASD movement so it feels more natural instead of just relying on clicks. And haha, about those last 3 optional sheep in the second puzzle: 1) the moon , 2) getting 3 coins (yep, that’s the one you called ‘the back of the console’), and 3) realizing that the mushrooms can actually be stepped on (but not touched from the side) . Thanks again for playing during Feedback Quest and for all the thoughtful notes, it really helps me a lot!”

Ok, so went through that second puzzle again; I'm still missing two sheep. So I'm just gonna detail everything I do in order.
First, I turn the TV on and go to the third channel. I sit in the chair. I then move the chair to the middle painting, fix it, then complete the painting. Before I go in, I move the chair to third painting to fix it and get the coin. I then move the chair back to the middle. Inside, I turn on the water and then grab the stick before returning to the room. I get the floaty out from under the table then change the TV to the game. I go into the game. I collect all of the coins in game, then release the mushroom and jump on it. I talk to the plumber. Now I return to the painting and get the coin in the bush since, for some reason, I couldn't get it before. I get the plumbing fixed. I make the jump to the other side to get the clock turner. I head back into the painting and use the clock turner, then make it night time. I go back to the room, move the chair to the first painting and fix it. I go back into the painting and make it morning. I go back out and use the fan to blow the clouds into the painting. Before I go into the painting, I go to the back of the console and unplug all three and exit the screen. I then go back into that screen, which triggers one sheep (not sure why I need to go out and back in but whatevs). I then go into the painting and use the tub.
This leaves me with two missing sheep.
Also, if the 3 coins aren't needed for beating the game then there's something missing, as I needed to get two coins in order to pay the plumber.
Thank you so much for taking the time to test everything so carefully. I followed your steps and was able to reproduce it. After digging in, I realized the two missed sheep are:
-
The coin under the table (this one can only be found before plumbing is fixed—since that event consumes all coin-related triggers).
-
The sheep that spawns simply by pushing the table (if the table is never pushed, that one never appears).
And about the one you mentioned with “I then go back into that screen, which triggers one sheep” — yeah, that’s a bit odd. I originally intended it to trigger the first time you connect correctly, but right now it spawns just by re-entering the screen. I’ll adjust that to feel more natural.
By the way, I’m also currently trying to add WASD movement everywhere, and it feels so much smoother to play ~
Really appreciate your super detailed feedback—it helps me a lot!
