Ranked from 89 ratings. Score is adjusted from raw score by the median number of ratings per game in the jam.

How does the game fit the theme?
The phrase "trust no one" made me think of the term "wolf in sheep's clothing" (because it means an untrustworthy person). So I tried to make a game about literal wolves in sheep's clothing.

What code and assets did you not make from scratch during the jam (if any)?
I didn't make the sfx. I credited the ones that require attribution in the game page, and the rest are from Pixabay. I also didn't make the background image. I got it from Pexels.

How many people worked on the game?

Cool game! Would be nice if you've added in game instructions cause I played downloaded version and took a little time to learn the gameplay loop. But once I did, I actually enjoyed it. Nice Idea, well done with the visuals and soundtrack.

to continue with contstructive feedback, maybe some music? (unless I just have my computer on mute) and I would love to see a less pixelated version in future!

This game talks the theme so serious its funny. I love the entire idea. I got a final score of 23 which I think it good. SO good luck.

I have difficulty to get all the rules. But the flow was good enough to keep me playing to the end even without understanding everything. What is the best score you did?

Don't hesitate to test our game : /jam/brackeys-16/rate/4942051

This is a great puzzle memory game, I just feel the store is unecessary and it would benefit more from different types of wolfs/sheeps according to zones/levels than a store/roguelike element. But overall is a great theme interpretation and creative implementation, great job!!

Its fun to play and love the art style but it would be better to look for clues the find the wolf  without just guessing

I like the idea, I think if you made it more complex it would be a very cool game.

Finding the wolf felt a little too random.

It's clever how you used the memory game mechanic with the theme. It's simply easy to understand and fun to play. Congrats!

Very fun game. I like the twist on the simple memory game. very clever!

Fun game, cool concept. I enjoyed playing!

That was incredible! I was having so much fun, trying to follow the wolf movements so i don't choose it while matching the sheep. I reached level 7 with 63 score, only because the upgrades didn't give me a healing one. The game is very fun, It needs some work of course, when I first tried I was so lost that I kept checking the instructions.  It would be better if there was audio indications of some sort, like when the wolf moves it laugh or when it kill. Overall I enjoyed the game, and that is what every game should be. Amazing Job!

It was a fun idea! I liked how it was a twist on the classic memory game but with sheep being eaten by wolves over time, stressing the idea that you need to get matches as quick as possible. It may not be completely polished but it's good so far!

Some possible improvements: making it clearer what happens when a sheep dies, how you win a level, what some of the powerups mean, spicing it up a bit with some more diverse mechanics as well.

On the whole, needs a little further development but looking great!

cool concept, agreed it needs more time but I think you got the gameplay across and it fits the theme nicely :)
