My best score was 108.  Not sure it's human to keep sheep in a meteor prone area with deadly electric fences but I did my farm dog best!  The sound and controls were also very good.  Not sure whether I was using the bark correctly but the sheep didn't seem to respond to it.  Overall, great work!","format":"md","likes":1,"spam":"N"},{"id":853981,"author_name":"Stefan B.","author_uid":"stefan-b","epoch":1664878303,"text":"sheeply perfect, cool idea!","format":"md","likes":1,"spam":"N"},{"id":854013,"author_name":"MrMaico","author_uid":"mrmaico","epoch":1664878496,"text":"Score: 120\nSimple mechanic that works really well in that setting. I would also say the theme works in this game with the 10 seconds. My only problem right now, is that after a few seconds, you have most of the sheep in your circle and can just spam space to keep them with you. Then you gotta wait for quite some time before the next level starts. The meteors were a nice idea but didn't help.","format":"md","likes":1,"spam":"N"},{"id":854337,"author_name":"chaikadev","author_uid":"chaikadev","epoch":1664880392,"text":"I liked this game's concept a lot, it's very original. It fits the LD51's theme perfectly. The graphics were nice as well. I liked the physics on the sheep and the sandbox nature of the game.\n\nAs MrMaico said, I found that it's very easy to win by just holding all your sheep in one spot by holding space. If I were to change something I would make barking repel the sheep instead of making them run towards you. Also, the sound effects were annoying after a while. \n\nOverall, I think it's a good game! Great job.","format":"md","likes":1,"spam":"N"},{"id":854587,"author_name":"Filipe M.","author_uid":"filipe-m","epoch":1664881960,"text":"Awesome, simple and beautiful!
