Wool Street by acid
Wool Street is a cozy, fast-paced sheepdog management sim where you raise a thriving flock and outwit hungry wolves! Bark commands at your loyal sheepdog to herd sheep into the field, sell wool at the shear, or ship grown sheep to the market for cash. Each new wave of howling wolves brings fresh threats — so hire more pups, station guard dogs, expand your pasture, and even grab a rifle to scare the pack off. Can you build your fortune and retire in comfort before the wolves take it all?

Other than that I really like this game. Very original and well executed.
Did you have any method to the madness when you balanced the game with prices and such? I see your screenshot shows selling sheep for $5 to $10, but in the game it is $6 to $10.
I think you should be able to buy a pig who is super awesome at herding. :) My dogs ran the sheep off the edge a time or two.
My only bit of feedback is regarding the balancing: it feels like you have to grind for quite a long time to afford the upgrades. It might be worth lowering the prices for the shop items or the new pups just a bit to keep the sense of progression moving faster. Other than that, the game is absolutely superb and very addictive. Great job and rated! 🐶🔫
The controls feel a bit heavy, but the amount of work put into it is impressive.
I’m delighted!
I like incremental games, and having to micromanage the herd was a fun way to keep it engaging.
