For some reason, the game just began zooming in and making it impossible to see anything. I see what you were going for, but something clearly went wrong.

A little short but fun

I couldn't get it to start

really pretty game! could do with audio and more minor interactions to show that the game is reading your input, e.g. buttons change when you hover over them and such

I'm sorry to hear that the game won't start. I have a possible solution: press "start" before switching to fullscreen mode, then go fullscreen afterwards. If it won't work, just click the START bottom (everywhere) several times. I hope this helps!(BTW Due to time limit, we weren’t able to finish this game or add sound. Maybe we'll have the chance to complete it in the future!) —ZhuLi

Cute sheep, love it!

Very cute art:D Nice idea, but gameplay is so slow:< Didn't reach 25/25 because camera zoom and many robots. Please, write in the description controls! Great work :v:

Incredible animations, and really cool tutorial screen. It's pretty surreal to control a flock of units that are locked in position like that, and a neat take on a dodge-game where you are controlling more and more hitboxes.

I had a bit of trouble starting the game, but your solution to press begin before fullscreen worked. I was a bit confused about what happened to the sheep after they were spotted by the sentrybot things, but had a pretty good time playing. I would have like a bit more feedback in the gameplay loop, as mentioned above. Just a little something more to tell me that I was gaining or losing sheep.

Very cool entry, looking forward to more. Thanks for sharing!

I too was unable to start the game :( The web version didnt start at all so I downloaded the zip file to try too and that just wont let me click on start at all. IT looks promising though and I really wanted to check it out. Let me know if you have any idea on how to fix this pls.

All of the art and animations were incredibly impressive! The only problem I had encountered while playing this is that the camera keeps zooming in and not back out, which reduced what I could see around me. Also it would be useful if you wrote the controls somewhere accessible during the gameplay (or in the description) because I kept forgetting what those were. But good job though!

It looks really nice! It was hard to get started but clicking around the start button a lot got it started.

I like animations and visuals! Cool idea!

I like that you kept the scope of the game nice and tight. What you made looked good and played well, overall. I found it challenging with that I-need-to-win addictive kind of quality to it. I think it may have been nice to have a shorter reward loop with smaller goals to start with that built up to a higher number--as it is, it's kind of all or nothing. But all in all, a great game. Good work!

The animations are very nice and well drawn! The game itself unfortunately ran very poorly for me (also didn't have any sound), and I wasn't engaged by the gameplay itself so much

Bipedalism: unlocked. The animation and art are great. Unfortunately the sound wasn't playing when I played it, but overall it's a short and neat game.
