Thank you so much! I also really enjoyed playing your game!

I really love this game! It reminds me of those brain-teasing logic puzzles. Once you take a little time to figure out the mechanics, it becomes incredibly fun! I also really enjoyed the level that appears after the credits! The art style is adorable, too. Great job!

Hello!

Thank you so much for playing the game and for leaving such an incredibly detailed and heartfelt review! Getting feedback like this is exactly why I love participating in game jams😊.

We thought there were going to be tons of "Papers, Please" games made by others, so we just wanted to make something more cozy and delightful to make ourselves happy (and we did have a ton of fun during the dev phase hehe).

The art is heavily inspired by the movie The Big Bad Fox and Other Tales (a perfect idea from our artist DAZHIYASHU), and we drew inspiration from games such as Untitled Goose Game, Stardew Valley, etc. Our composer Katuria was amazing, and all the audio ideas add a lot of flavor to the overall experience😉

You make a fair point about the difficulty, and I fully understand! The balancing definitely suffered a bit: we ran out of time to properly balance the difficulty and the 'fun' of successfully spotting and catching a wolf by the end of the jam, but we can definitely work a bit more on it post-jam! The dog emits a 'shock wave' from its location when barking, so all the sheep are propelled away from it. To better herd the sheep, I would normally run up and down around the flock and bark all the time, kinda similar to how sheepdogs herd sheep in the real world! And thanks for pointing out the sheep indicator! It malfunctions when the sheep are sparse, as it points to the center of mass of all the sheep. We may fix it post-jam.

And wow, thank you so much for taking the time to write out those translations! I really appreciate the effort, and it's so helpful!

Thanks again for the review and for taking the time to help us improve!

Hi y’all! 🐑🐶

Thank you so much for playing our game and for all the lovely feedback on SheepDog! 💛

Many of you noticed the nasty bug where the sheep would suddenly vanish, and we’ve spent the past week tracking it down and working on a fix. I think now we’ve finally got it! I wanted to re-upload the fixed version to the original jam entry, but unfortunately uploads are locked until the end of the jam, and the old version has been removed. So, I’ve made a separate playable version with the fix instead:

SheepDog — Playable Version

Please feel free to give it a try, and hopefully this time the sheep will stay where they belong! 🐑

And of course, if you enjoyed the game, it would mean a lot if you could leave your comments and ratings on the original jam entry — it helps more people discover the game and gives us some lovely memories to look back on after the jam. 😉

Thank you again for playing, testing, and helping us make SheepDog a better game!

Thank you for the feedback! I think I’ve fixed the bug and wanted to re-upload the game, but unfortunately I can’t anymore (the upload is blocked until the end of the jam, hehe).

Anyway, I’ve created a playable project, so please feel free to test this one instead. The bug should be fixed now!

Thank you! I also enjoyed playing your game!

Thank you! I also like your game! Ah the wolves hide pretty well and only 'leaks' every few seconds haha, my tips would be to focus on the tails😉

Thanks a lot! I also enjoyed your game!

Thank you so much! Love your game, too!

Thank for the catch! We didn't have the restart bug during our dev process, and will look into it to try fixing it. Will add the disclaimer to the page, thanks a lot for the suggestions!😉

Also really enjoyed playing your game!

thank you so much! Yeah I also like your game's idea hehe.Yeah we should probably add more cues for wolves( I found it hard to balance the difficulty and the 'fun' of finding wolves, and thought that if the wolves are easily found then the game ends too soon🤔)But anyway some more cues would add more flavor to the game😀

Thank you so much! I like your game, too!

Thank you so much! I really like your game's art😉

Thank you so much! I also enjoyed playing your game!😆

Thank you! I also enjoyed playing your game😃 Yeah the wolves hide really well and only leak their tails every few seconds. Yet it's a bit tricky to tune the 'leak' interval and duration to balance the difficulty and the 'fun' part of 'trusting no sheep'. Great idea about addjng some spatial sound cues! We'll try implement that. But overall I'd say this is why human needs dogs, and having dogs around has made this a better world!😉

Thank you so much! Yeah that was a nasty bug that we're still trying to fix hehe. Will keep it updated until everything runs smoothly!
