Great artwork and nice music! Love how the whole vibe of the game, counting kids are pretty hard for me, and nice idea!

A character creator for a jam game?! That is so cool.

Honestly wouldn't have minded a game that was just designing pixel people with that editor and sending them into the world. The actual counting-children-and/or-sheep-as-a-job gameplay was a little confusing, and I kept getting replaced by AI (which I guess is kind of the point, right?).

It's quite unclear what the game wants from me.

I love the look and vibe, but unfortunately I couldn't get a handle on the gameplay.

Love the art style and character creator.
Had a few issues with gameplay though. I couldn't properly access the voting polls as it disappears too quickly and I wasn't sure how to access any of the other items featured in the item bar at the bottom.
