The entry was a bit difficult for me, because the camera zooms in again and again during the explanation of the control / reloads the level. Since I would wish for a faster entry.
Otherwise, a fantastic idea that was also well implemented. Small stuff like collision detection with trees could still be adjusted but that's really only small stuff. The theme and the artstyle fit together wonderfully. Feels really comfortable to collect the sheep. It was really a lot of fun. Bork Bork!
Brilliant. Simply brilliant

Gorgeous game. As an owner of a belgian malinois I absolutely love it!
The art is really something. The attention to detail with the animations too make it feel very polished. Brilliant!
Gorgeous grass! I missed an explanation at the beginning and had to double back to this page to understand how to play it.

Really cool unique entry! I was worried that it might be annoying to control the sheep but the game mechanics worked surprisingly well! Great job

The visuals are amazing! The game has such a lovely warm atmosphere and is incredibly polished :smile:
I tried to play the game in browser first but I think there's a little too much going on for it to run properly - I found the controls were really unresponsive so I downloaded the game and then it ran perfectly. It's really satisfying rounding up a herd of sheep and then herding them all together in a big group. My only complaint is that sheep would sometimes get stuck at the boundaries of the level, and they were really hard to get moving again - since it seems like you don't need all the sheep herded to complete the level though this wasn't too much of an issue.
Overall I really enjoyed the game, great job!
Love it! First game of the Jam I've played, but it might end up being my favorite. I wish my Aussie could play it. The controls pop-ups are a bit small, so it took me a while to figure out the growl.

The design is very creative and the art style is fantastic. Congrats on the amount of polish in such a small timeframe. The controls could be a bit better, sometimes its a bit frustrating trying to get all the sheep together, and not in a "good frustrating" way. Also invisible walls on the levels are a bit weird. Even with all that one of the coolest games I've seen yet! Congrats guys.
The style of this game was really nice and wholesome, which I imagine is the vibe you were going for when making this game - great art and audio!
I did find it a little frustrating with the sliding dog like a high-speed car as opposed to moving like a dog, but in the time given this is a really fun little game.
Maybe in future a key to switch perspectives would be great, I actually had a lot more fun playing zoomed in/3rd person as opposed to top down.
Well done!

Really nice art style and a good application of the theme! I enjoyed it, but could not figure out how to complete it. I put all the sheep in the circle but nothing happened!
Very original theme entry. Loved the little cutscenes and the gameloop was very fun!! Sound was a little bit annoying after a while 😬 Has a blast tho, great work!!
You made the 3d version of our tri-jam game and in one level you used the music of one of our ludum it's really trippy :) Really cute art for the succes of a level and the sheep being little oval jumping up and down are really cool ... wait is this sheep doing break dance ? SheepBreakDance.png
This is fantastic! Awesome visuals and music and a very wholesome experience! I have just a tiny bit of feedback:
- I wish I could bark while moving - I wish I could unscare sheep so I won't have to wait
Great game, and a great take on the theme!

Wow. Unreal art in this. Maybe the best of any submission I've seen so far. Very impressive that this was all done in a weekend!
Unfortunately, the game was super laggy in browser. The controls were pretty good and the sheep AI seemed to be quite responsive.
Although the music was really well done, I didn't feel like it suited the game too well. I think something more ambient and relaxing would have fit a lot better here.
Great submission!

Very cute and intuitive! The last level I played I couldn't really figure out, where I was supposed to lead the large herd because I missed the overview it gives in start when zoomed in. Love any game with a good boy (or girl) :)
It's Very calming although a bit confusing. I enjoyed it alot.
Wow. fantastic game! I like everything and all 5 rating! Welcome to play my game as well.
Really cute art and fun vibes! It felt really rewarding seeing the flowers fly up on a success.
I appreciate the art you guys create in such a short time. It's soooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo cute and adorable!!! i really love the sheep jumping up and down. And the mechanic is fun. However, I have to mention that you could add a small map to show the location of the destination and sheep. Because when the scene becomes larger, it always takes time for player to find the target first and guide is very important in this time.

I have to say it's the best art of all games I've played, whar a cute game!
Wonderful game - so so so cute. The world was so inviting, and the music was cute, and the art was a delight. Movement controlls were a little rough (haha) sometimes, getting stuck on rocks, or not being able to bark and move at the same time. SFX were great (adorable bark sound). Very cute idea. Well done ☺️

Fantastic art design this game really has character. I was worried that the hearding would be annoying with sheep going everywhere but the mechanic is very well implemented, great job!

Very nice idea and super well executed. Very cute graphics, all consistently executed, varying maps with different goals. It was fun to work with sheep and a nice mechanic :) Congrats super game!
Graphics are amazing and I thought the camera handled pretty well. I knew exactly where the dog was at all times and the camera smoothly followed the dog.
Graphics were on point. The art style is so good and really matches the gameplay.
I did find it a little hard to understand if I got my sheep in the correct spot. That was my only small problem.
Cozy nice game, liked the audio, cute art and graphics!
I loved the graphics, especially the cute sheeps. The concept is fun, well done! :smile:
