Sheep Shift by Budda

[raw]
made by Budda for LD35 (JAM)
Sheep Shift is a game of herding animals back to where they're supposed to be. Herd your sheep back into their pen, and chase the wolves back into the distance - or they'll kill your sheep.

Watch out for the sneaky wolves dressed as sheep though.

Controls: Mouse for movement. Esc to restart the game. M to mute audio.

BAAA, LOL. Love the game but the sheep stayed on the fence.

I feel like the player should always start off at the pen so they have a clear idea of the goal.

funny audio design! cool idea of the theme "wolf within a sheep". Needs rework on the collision stuff.

Collisions were a bit weird, and the loud BAAA got a bit annoying, but I appreciate this interpretation of the theme a lot.

I love the recorded voices. Baaahhh lol. Couldn't figure out how to effectively move more than one sheep. Controls work well though.

As difficult as it is, I like how the controls feel.

Hahaha the "sheep" noises BAAHHHH...Funny ascpect to this game. The game it's self is great. Do wish the player character was a bit more relevant to the setting. Overall, pretty decent game to play. Good work :)

Some of my sheep got stuck on the fence, but this is a cool idea for a game. The controls are simple and fun, and the take on the theme is really clever.

Hi, nice game ! We're realizing a video with several games of the Ludum Dare #35.
Can you add your game on indiexpo.net ? (it's free)
So we can include also your game in the video ;)
p.s. write #LDJAM in the game's description

I didn't really think the theme was well represented, because there wasn't really any shape shifting, just wolves in costumes? But I really liked your audio, and the game was really fun to play!

This game was really nice; It'd be nicer if there was a way to defeat the wolves. As it is now they just spaz out once they get near one.

On a side note, the game pairs incredibly nicely with Weird Al's polka medleys.
