Hello! I love the description, it got me interested in playing it, but when I click the links, I get a 404 from itch.io, maybe I tried the link while you were making changes? Anyway, I'll be back!

tubadude99 2020-04-21 03:58

Thank you so much @noahnewline for pointing this out to us. Unfortunately @elmos-minion is asleep so we probably won't be able to fix it until tomorrow morning (EDT), but please come back to play the game and leave us some feedback.

Tried to play. Broken link as someone else already pointed out. Shame, hopefully i get around to coming back! So many games to play, looks fun tho!

nicko-klyukay 2020-04-21 05:30

Error 404 :(

yoshify 2020-04-21 05:32

404. I'll come back later!

ricna 2020-04-21 05:45

"We couldn't find your page"XL

Looks interesting from the screenshots, but was getting a broken link error :/

elmos-minion 2020-04-21 12:10

Hello! I fixed the broken links! I'm not sure who rated, though, cuz it wasn't even up, I would appreciate ya'll trying to play again.

elmos-minion 2020-04-21 12:14

@noahnewline @blue-pin-studio @nicko-klyukay @yoshify @ricna @yinian @jasonsumm1

I fixed the links, terribly sorry (the itch.io page was complete *but not public*, it was still a "draft")

elmos-minion 2020-04-21 12:16

I am curious how we got 5 ratings without any game to play, though...maybe people are rating without playing games....or it's just based on the images

megamasterx 2020-04-21 15:01

Mechanically, this is a pretty interesting title! I COMPLETELY forgot Blender had a built in game engine basically. This gave me a pretty good arcadey feel so very well done! Hit 94k score before stopping.

slothtimistic 2020-04-21 15:34

Sorry you got bunk ratings, thats pretty sucky and I hope it doesn't affect your ending score too terribly.

Really cute idea and fits the theme so well! I had some issues with the direction the cattle prod 'poked' the sheep being a bit inconsistent, but overall the game worked just fine and was quite fun!

texz 2020-04-21 16:54

Wtffff, how can we loose ?

maxestla 2020-04-21 16:54

Hey ! The game is charming but it might need some more work :) (I'm happy to see that someone made a game on blender <<3)

tubadude99 2020-04-21 17:30

@texz You lose when all of your sheep die.

abdurrahman-khallouf 2020-04-21 18:03

fun game bro. I hope only you know that something will get broke and had a slower pace...

most annoying thing is when I try to push some sheeps and they blink behind me.. needs better physics.

cool entry though

unidaystudio 2020-04-21 18:14

Upbge squad here! Glad to see your project here! Congratulations for the entry!

narom42 2020-04-21 18:31

That was a funny sort of tower defense experience. Thanks :)

noahnewline 2020-04-21 20:18

I'm glad you got your link fixed! I think this is my first time actually seeing a blender game, that's awesome. I like how fast-paced it is, while being simple to control and understand. I wish there was a sound when one of the fences would break, or when more bushes would spawn. All of the baahs were making me laugh, nice job!

bastian-bresson 2020-04-22 08:07

Interesting game! I was not fan of the pace of the game, everything was going so fast that it was difficult to understand what happened in the game and stop sheeps from going off to die. Did the sheep destroy fences, or did they randomly get destroyed? Anyways, good submission, and nice to see a different engine being used.

elmos-minion 2020-04-22 13:14

@bastian-bresson The sheep actually destroy the fences over time, the more sheep pushing the fence the faster it gets destroyed.

Thanks for the feedback everyone!

melomel 2020-04-22 20:07

I killed 315 sheep. I like that they stand on top of each other to get over the fences. Actually I hate it, but it's funny.

aaranos 2020-04-23 03:54

Bit of a sketchy packaging of the game, could of used some bloat removed too as it had a lot of python packages it didn't need included.

As for the game, it seemed to go on forever in my case. I think some of the sheep got attracted to something they couldn't get to so they kind of bunched up on the hill, so I always had at least 6 sheep.

elmos-minion 2020-04-23 19:28

@aaranos I noticed that too actually, when testing, but I still have no idea what object they're targeting over that side. Also, thanks for the feedback, I didn't notice that a lot of the python packages were unused, so I'll be sure to trim down the packaging a lot next time!

isiah-brighton 2020-04-25 23:56

I don't know what it is: the frantic pace, the sound design, the fact that the sheep seem to want to die - this is the funniest game I have played in a long time.

ausstein 2020-05-08 16:38

Thanks for suggesting your game

Dying was harder for me than surviving :D
