Very short but fun playthrough. Captured the goat vibe perfectly. Also want to say I laughed pretty hard at the curse reveal. It ends kind of abruptly which leaves me wanting more. It never happened to be, but it seemed like it'd be possible to get softlocked. 

Developer

Thank you! You can restart the level by pressing the Start button so softlock is not really a thing. And yeah, it is common to do some actions in the wrong order that requires you to restart.

Help I'm too stupid to beat level 2 πŸ˜­

Like I thought for sure I had to launch the goat up onto the platform but he just immediately runs off of it πŸ˜­

Developer

Thank you for playing! Oh you're not stupid, in level 2 you have to jump to the first platform and you have to throw to the goat that is on the right which will knock the first goat to the platform which will knock you up to the second platform. It may not be that straightforward.

very cool game! Love the gameplay and the art. Nailed the nes feel btw. And i love how such a simple concept of getting launched by goats can be a clever puzzle element

Developer

Thank you very much!

This was very cool. The game could run on a console, it looks and sounds good, it's based on an original mechanism based on the theme and the actual puzzles were fun to solve. Thanks for sharing!

Fun, clever puzzle design. I like how you just turn into a goat, no explanation needed. πŸ˜†

Developer

Thank you πŸ˜‚

Didn't expect this to be a puzzle game going in but the goat mechanic was very unique and engaging. Level 2 was a brain teaser and my favorite.

Thank you for playing!

Got soft locked a few times but I enjoyed it. Fresh. New. Good work :)

Developer

Thank you! Yeah, the reset button was extremely necessary, without it it would be almost impossible to finish in the first run.

So you're telling me you don't need to do an in air rock throw for level 3? xP  Really enjoyed the mechanics and how well they were implemented into puzzles. Only one track through the game but it really fit the vibe that was needed, well done!

Thank you very much!

I liked the mechanic of luring the enemy goat into a headbutt. The soundtrack and color palette work very well together and fit the game perfectly—I got the impression that it had a horror-comedy vibe.

I really enjoyed playing it. Congratulations!

Developer

Thank you very much! Definetly the headbutt animation could be a bit more polished but it was what I was able to do in the time span. πŸ˜…

I love being a goat!! the puzzles were so fun to figure out (i got stuck behind the rock on the 4th level lol

Developer

Thank you for playing, yeah maybe the instructions weren't clear but you're able to restart the level by pressing the "Enter" key.
