Words can't describe how awesome this is. Good thing there's no audio, that additional level of awesomeness would most definitely have killed me.

Thanks for making this!

Wow, these sheep are so cute! That makes me even more eager to kill them all!
Such a simple game, like all other multiplayer LD games, but this one is the most enjoyable. The concept is unique, and it's only fun in multiplayer. Though I saw a similar game.
No complaints at all! Well done!
By the way, what do these points at the bottom mean? They seem to be 0 most of the time.

Hahaha! I died so much and still had fun, that is the sign of a good game. Those weapons are very conventional, but I don't care.

Extra credit for online-multiplayer for a jam game, that's tough.

Well done!

This game looks so fun, unfortunately I get a "grey screen" after the loading animation (i've waited 5 min, still stuck on this screen) - is it normal?

Game seems heavily stacked towards the shepherd. Otherwise a lot of fun and just bloody congratulations on making a working multiplayer game.

Awesome! At first I though "Oh the shepherd just has to spam the click" but then I got to shepherd and I rated this even higher.

Haha, really enjoyable. And the multiplayer worked flawlessly. Both being the sheep and killing the sheep was fun.

Super cool game! The multiplayer element is very impressive for a compo entry. Seems like quite a few people were playing as well. Awesome job!

This game is pretty great. I like that you get points for blocking attacks as well as surviving, it makes it worth the effort.

I wish my sheep would get a second chance to protect himself - the game right now seems to extremely favor the shepherd. I don't think I've ever seen a sheep survive a non-afk shepherd.

Can't stop giggling like an idiot while watching all those cute sheep getting splattered. I actually got to the right side one single time when the shepherd was afk xD
This is an awesome game ^^

Funny idea. Poor sheep :) I made it across 3-4 times. Felt like a major victory.

Definitely my favorite game so far - compo _or_ Jam.

Just waaay too friggin addictive. So hard for the leetle sheepies... but makes the win so much sweeter when you somehow manage to survive against all odds.

Hey, so question: If I wanted to set up a private lua server to run for a friendly LAN party or something - how would that be done? The sources made reference to a console "reload" command to load a different server from a file, but I don't know how to get the console, nor the format/expected pathname of the file... :)

I'll mirror pretty much what everybody else said. Really great work here, especially being able to complete a multiplayer game for the compo. I had a lot of fun while streaming it. You can check out the vod here if you want: http://www.twitch.tv/drathy/c/6585845

This is really amazing, I've always wanted to do a networked game in LD but the thought of it is TERRIFYING. Good job for pulling it off and pulling it off EXTREMELY well.

Okay, enough!! Must resist to keep playing. I think this is the first online multiplayer LD entry I have ever seen with so many players online. This game is hilariously funny. Very good job!

It's and intressting concept, I feel that it's to easy for the shepherd to win tho, but thats balancing. Otherwice it would be a fun game with friends.

Very fun! i think if the sheep knew what types of traps were present it would make it much more skill based rather than luck. Overall pretty cool though.
