That's sad because you can play (looking the map) OOOORRR you can look at the cute graphics :) Zoom out the camera, and make the minimap less important, IMHO it should be just a tool to see where are remaining sheeps when you are near the end, not the main thing you look at while playing."},{"author_name":"Xanjos","author_uid":"21201","time":"Dec 18, 2015 @ 2:05am","epoch":1450404000,"text":"Game map is probably is a bit too big but I like the mechanics and the animations were well done."},{"author_name":"Jakob37","author_uid":"50156","time":"Dec 19, 2015 @ 8:25pm","epoch":1450556400,"text":"It has a really nice look about it! And, is that proper sound acting that I hear? If so, quite impressive indeed. One quite big issue I had was that the browser didn't capture the arrow keys for me. That, together with a game screen much larger than my laptop window led to that I moved the entire window around together with the dog. Otherwise, seems like a solid game :)"},{"author_name":"psychonull","author_uid":"31386","time":"Dec 20, 2015 @ 8:42pm","epoch":1450643820,"text":"Very nice game. Great graphics and sounds.
