The music was great! It took me awhile to realize I could scroll around the world map. I'm going to have nightmares about goats and goat-emperors tonight.

I loved the presentation and the concept. The only problem here is that there was nothing stopping me from spamming the button to generate more goats and the slaughtering everything right away.

Quite honestly, I was just confused and clicking buttons. Eventually anytime I attacked or slaughtered I would win. I couldn't figure out the logic of it. Apparently I was a cruel and leader, since it looks like I got the bad ending. Triforce is a nice touch.

Agree with Datw, I can make goats like a freak and be the emperor in no time.

@MrEvilGuy <3 sorry about those bad dreams!
@Datw @Manuel777 I had to cut down on the feature that would make the game lengthier which also caused the game to be extremely unloseable

Maybe was it too easy, i hope you will improve it.
Good job.

Liked it although I never lost a battle. I'm not even sure if you can. After the second town I had 125% on slaughter.

Good concept, and I liked the idea of THE EVIL GOAT KING KILLING ALL THE HUMANS, but it was a bit too easy - could have done with some resource management mechanics or something

comrad_gremlin 2012-12-17 19:48

It's neat and simple :)

cthu 2012-12-17 21:56

I am the emperor!

wisegamer 2012-12-18 00:28

Too simple that made it not much fun

The goat texture and story are pretty funny, but the gameplay is somewhat confusing (it is unclear if there are any limits to goat creation).

jomomomo 2012-12-18 03:06

I am the goat emperor! Could make it more of a challenge, maybe add some turn based choices during the battles?

loggiant 2012-12-18 04:06

The instructions were not helpful, but I figured it out pretty quickly. There wasn't much stopping me from just spamming goats and conquering. I did enjoy the game's humor.

quantumvm 2012-12-18 04:51

Ugh well that was a bit easy. The sense of humor was to die for though!

twilightflandre 2012-12-18 05:32

The game was pretty funny, for me at least. The audio was great though overall it took me awhile to figure out the controls.

kewry 2012-12-18 05:40

Thanks for checking out the game guys, and I'll take your feedback in account when I get to work on this again!

boenahhh 2012-12-18 09:39

Haha loved the idea. A little bit too easy though but good fun :)

kgs0142 2012-12-18 10:02

Fun idea to give goat the role to emperor the world!

amoaeba-junior 2012-12-18 11:06

haha goat empire, had some issues with the more goats button

william_edwards 2012-12-18 12:07

Evil Goats? Going for a 10 on the theme scale? :)

CireNeikual 2012-12-18 15:50

I got so many goats that the sign changed!

jaj 2012-12-19 14:40

Nice use of theme but I wasn't really challenged.

cwilloughby 2012-12-20 08:49

Like civilization, but with goats. I could make goats a bit too easy.

adventureislands 2012-12-30 16:56

Interesting idea, the game is pretty easy though because you can just make lots of goats and slaughter everything in instant.
