It is a really cool concept, I liked how they followed me around :) And that I could defend them from the fox with my mean stare alone :D

Please add some clear feedback (visual/audio) to the player when I have done something successfully or not.

At the begging the guy went somewhere completely off. Later I found out it was because it kept position of the cursor leaving the game window so maybe add wsad movement for the guy and mouse for the hypnotizing?

Nice game. It's satisfying to hypnotize the sheep though I would recommend adding a visual indicator to know that the sheep are hypnotized. Still great effort.

Agree. Cool idea to hypnotize the sheep, but a visual indicator for the sheep would help.

Nice idea, althougth I think the game lacks some clarity, it wasn't clear for me if the sheep was affected by the loop. Mouse movement was cool and convenient

Thank you! The lack of player feedback was my major gripe with this, too - I just unfortunately didn’t have the time to do anything about it. Nice to know that I’m seeing what others are!

Cool loop mechanic, I like how it was combine with the movements. Great game for a solo dev !
