Herding Hounds by mintybacon

[raw]
made by mintybacon for Ludum Dare 52 (COMPO)

In Herding Hounds you play as a Shepard's dog harvesting sheep by herding them to the exit of the field.

Game Play

You have limited time to harvest sheep but each successful harvest will add more time to the clock. Each sheep will add 2 seconds to the play time. Sheep are also worth points equal to the time remaining on the board.

Controls

Your Dog is controlled by clicking on the screen

Scroll wheel to zoom in and out

Double Click to Bark :)

Tips

  • Sheep are worth more with more time on the clock, so Harvest sheep early and often!

  • It is easier to herd sheep in smaller groups than it is pushing large piles of sheep

Nice little game. I wish sheep were more responsive even if it were just for the bark but I guess that could make it too easy maybe?

Congratulations on your submission!

Nice submission, pretty cool idea to herd sheep. It's very satisfying to get a large group of them through at a time! Movement felt a little jerky, more fluidity there could go a long way. Would be cool to see the game evolve. Great work! :)
