Silly little sheep! I couldn't figure out what the dragon did, but I think the objects you pick up might be a bit too close together.

Swatting dragons was excellent A+++

Took me 30 seconds to learn how to play, then I enjoyed the crap out of it.

You have a wild imagination - sheep on a sky island being attacked by dragons...

I loved trying to use the hook to keep the sheep in place but accidentally flinging them into the abyss. I couldn't figure out what to use the dog head for, I thought it might make the sheep go in the other direction but I couldn't really tell if it was working.

Swatting dragons also was really satisfying - I wish it had a nice 'slap' sound effect though!

**BEST GAME EVER!!!**

Excellent concept, graphics and controls!

The fly swatter to be used on the dragon killed me

Congratulations to you all :rocket:

Adorable! At some point I got frustrated and pushed half the sheep of the island on purpose xP Swatting the dragon was fun too! Quite simple but fun :)

Very cute sheep! I love your art =)) Gameplay is also super! There is not enough tutorial in the beginning.

Looks really cool, but keeps crashing on my browser just as it finishes loading

A cute aesthetic with simple gameplay that gets the theme across well. I was slightly confused as to what the wolf head was used for though and I felt like the staff was a bit to powerful (instead of herding my sheep they would fling off into the abyss).

Somehow to grasp but quite fun afterwards!

Tried to play your game, but go this:

Browser - Firefox, Win 10.

Seriously one of the few games that delivers on humor really well. The gameplay is very clunky, but definitely funny. The sound gets annoying after a while though.

+1 for fly-swatting dragons.

Seems like some people are not able to run the game in Firefox. We only tested in Chrome *shame* So if you are having problems, maybe try Chrome?

Immediately starting out by accidentally pushing off the sheep was very funny. And playing it properly afterwards was fun too!

Fun idea, shame it doesn't support Firefox (I was able to play it on Microsoft Edge). It's pretty challenging to manage the sheep. Good cel-shaded models, nice bouncing sounds and pushing the dragon away everynow and then was kind of funny.
