Wow that was a nice game. Sadly I had very low FPS on the windows build so I ended up running the HTML5 version. I feel bad about zapping the sheep and it would be nice with a short story as to why I'm zapping the sheep :D

This is way more peaceful and charming game than I thought. It doesn't seem like there is any sort of endgame to it, but its cool to just see a huge stream of sheep folowing you :)
Interesting game! Having a flock of sheep following in my wake was funny, only to have them zapped unceremoniously (or VERY ceremoniously) at the altar is an entertaining sight!
The map is quite large, and actually quite detailed; it seems to be built with a sense of real architecture in mind! It's quite easy to get lost, but I did like to marvel at some of the open spaces and alleys and passageways.
The music seemed to stutter no matter how I ran the game (running in either Chrome or Firefox) and I ran into issues trying to run the exe file, which is unfortunate because I liked what I could make of the music, even as it stuttered to play!
Hopefully those sheep will find better lives somewhere beyond the altar...
Funny having sheep follow me to there inevitable death! muahahahahahah! :see_no_evil: Jokes aside, fun game at first. Very laggy/low FPS for me unfortunately though, especially when spamming the flute while sheep are beeing sacraficed. Good visuals!
Good presentation. I liked the sound and graphics, but the sound was a bit garbled. Our group actually discussed doing a pied piper mechanic in our game. It was left out due to time, but it was fun to see your game used that idea. Great minds think alike.
Good map and visual. I had a bug is music on HTML5 version (I dont use FireFox). I don't like to search things/object/animal in real life so it was not really to my taste but I liked the FX and the flock of sheeps.
@mccarlp and @boyzandgirlz i think that since we used "FMOD STUDIO" for procedural Sfx and sound tracks, and it's mulithreaded, however webgl is completely single threaded, it's stuttering and looking like chiptune... you should try the computer version ... the sound is amazing, our sound deginer did an awesome work
Good use of procedural generation! I'd have liked a few more mobility tools as walking around was a little slow for the size of the city. The fx, city and music were all excellent.
