Honestly so much fun to play, could do with a bit of polish and graphics, but in the end its still a fun game, with great gameplay and its pretty funny aswell
This gameplay loop was more addictive than I thought it would be, could clearly use some less palceholdery graphics but overall I had a great time playing it!
At first I was a bit skeptical due to lack of description on page and no in-game graphics. But I have to say that gameplay is pretty addictive :D For next time I suggest spending at least hour on adding descriptions to LD page and itch page. This will pay out for you for sure since overall player receive will be much more positive - I guarantee it. Good luck on future jams.
@panwezio thank you for the awesome feedback. I’m a bit new at these game jams. I will definitely spend more time on the itch and jam page. This game jam I decided not to get stuck in on graphics. I think I succeeded there. Next time graphics will be the focus.
I liked this! The game was short and fun. Even the circle graphics has a certain charm to them. I found the movement a bit hard to control, and I would have liked a smaller hitbox on the black holes. However, the sheep were fun! As someone who's had some interaction with sheep, you really got there stubborn nature correct. I see the mechanics are already in place for a short, really fun game. Just some finetuning would push it to the next level. Good job!
Very Difficult game without being ridiculous. only criticism is that the music comes on SOOOO loud XD. would love to see you get some assets made up for it to really flush it out.
Thought it was a title screen at first, didn't realize I was in the game right away. Tough game but fun. The music was fun and added more excitement than I expected from a game with simple graphics like this. Great work!
it is a very interesting game, simply very effective and satisfying with the pinball-like vibe to it sometimes. Although sheep falling into the void doesn't count for a loss, I don't blame you or the farmer for this decision and take it as it's totally intended :)
Give it some additional types of items to interact - and this can easily be a hugely satisfying game with several dozens possible levels going forward, with the pinball meets puzzle-like gameplay. Of course, give it a go and add some art to go with the theme!
Gameplay is really fun. But with the sounds and the graphics it isnt that interesting. If you slap some procedual levels, better graphics and audio onto this concept it really has great potential.
Loved the music and the concept was very unique. Hopefully you plan on adding some graphics and polishing it up. Laughed when I push a sheep into a black hole.
Really cool idea and the minimal art style actually works quite well. The sheep were actually less of a problem than the heavy and bouncy things. I love that when you push the farmer around his speech goes with him :D
I had way more fun which this than I expected. The assets are pretty barebones, but they serve their purpose in communicating the basic game state.
The sheep directly north broke me though. Between the balls taking a while to move, and the sheep being a right bastard, I died every time I tried to bring it home.
What a fever dream! I know some people would prefer different graphics, but I think having labeled circles makes this really unique and fun. I really like how bumping into the farmer makes the whole explainer text move around too
Haha oh I laughed so much! I managed to get two sheep back, and two other I got out, but not home. ;) I found out that I also lose if I push the farmer into a black hole. ;) I found the named circles quite funny, as well as the musical sound effects!

Had a ton of fun trying though.

Well done. :laughing:
