How does your game fit the theme?
The game is built around a countdown: you have limited time to herd all ducks into the pen before the storm hits. Every second counts — once the timer reaches zero, it's too late.

Ducks, so many ducks... Fun concept and very cute game! We only got 5 ducks in but had fun overall!

Fun game, only made it to 5 ducks!  I liked that the ducks had no movement animation and sometimes got stuck, it really added to their indifference to the whole situation imo

Really fun concept, I am happy to say all my ducks survived. The ducks did tend to get stuck on the fence and invisible wall. Maybe the ducks could run away at a random angle if they can't move in the direction they want to.  It could also be interesting if when there is thunder the ducks panic a bit and run around

Today I've played the game with the same concept called "Corova" check them out.

This game is like herding cats! Or ducks ... All I know is the 4 ducks I saved were my friends and RIP  to the duck that was in front of the gate and got struck by lightning as I was herding him in :(

I like the concept and herding all the chaotic ducks, but that timer and lightning strike pressure is ruthless! Really fun entry, nice

Cute game!! I could only save like 2 ducks...... Wish i could make 1000+ ducks spawn!

Got 6 ducks with one dying in my arms right in front of the gate.  I managed to get one of the ducks to fly over the fence using the space bar technique, then lost a boat load of time trying to repeat that trick and failing.

The main character model is good. I actually feel like an old guy that can't control his ducks. Thanks

As someone who has ducks, this was frighteningly accurate! Luckily we only have 3 to heard up each night.

Fun little game! 

Big fan of being able to configure how many you need to herd in, lets you scale the challenge to your liking.

Nice concept, but it runs like poopoo so it's extremely hard to enjoy

I guess you're referring to the mouse sensitivity issue? I initially tested in Firefox and found that the mouse movement speed was much slower than running locally, so I increased the mouse sensitivity for the web build. Later I discovered that running it in Edge makes the camera turn very fast. This is likely caused by some differences in Firefox, and I'll fix it in a future update.

I liked how the lightning struck the ducks. But unfortunately, I only saved 5.
