Fun Game! The Web Versions Resolution sadly doesnt fit on one of my Screens entirely. Still nice Idea and Concept.
I enjoyed playing this.

For something made in <72 hours this is a solid game. You should definitely expand on this, it was fun :D

Funny game. Nice of you that you took the time to even make a little tutorial. The cow AI works really well, it is a lot of fun to herd them around using the drones.
It seems the levels don't really get harder over time. When I have 100% destruction level but still got drones, the game doesn't let me play the next level until I use up those drones. I'm not entirely sure but it seems I got 100% in one level with some people still alive.

If you hold LMB you can drag a drone around and abuse the increased(/infinite) speed to guide the cows at will.

Nice game. Who knew it would be so hard to steer cows in the right direction. :)

Very cool idea, but I would have liked more strategy time before starting the attack

Had to swap to fullscreen to tone down the resolution, which was weird. Might be nice to have a destruction threshold where you can move onto the next level if you want. A couple times I'd get destroy most everything and then just have to expend drones doing not much at all at the end of a level.

Nice concept. Sometimes cows started spinning in circles or got stuck in walls but it was still a lot of fun. Why did you opt out of audio? Also mute resets every level and doesnt mute the moos :D

Thanks everyone for such a positive feedback!

@Junber
I have opted out the audio because most of it, is from libraries. Mute button was for music only but it should not restart the level :O. We will check that out.

@Orava
Thanks, we will try to fix that.

The tutorial is very confusing since it tells you the wrong controls (or I have something weird set up). The tutorial tells me to select using RMB, and move using LMB, but the game works the opposite way. Also, it's confusing if you leave the spawn button selected since you can't select another drone.

Despite that, I can see a fun game here. It's a funny take on the classic physics repellor mechanic.

It sure needs more work and fine-tuning of details, but meh - it's a gamejam, and it definitely has that special gamejam spirit! :)

Interesting mechanic, first game I've seen about herding and using livestock as a weapon. I also like the name, clever.

Did not handle scaling of screen in the web version. Interresting idea and fun to play for a while.
