A game about herding sheep by signalling to your sheepdog.
Simple objective: get all the sheep in the level into the pen at the top of the screen. You do this with whistle signals to your dog:
* `W`: Walk on (go straight towards the sheep)
* `S`: Lie down (stop moving)
* `A`: Come bye (flank around to the left side of the nearest sheep)
* `D`: Away from me (flank around to the right side of the nearest sheep)
Once the dog gets close enough to a sheep, it will move in the opposite direction (roughly, +/- 45 degrees).
The level is complete once all sheep are in the pen.
If left alone, the sheep will wander around the screen, although they will try and keep close together.
You can also pause the game by pressing `Esc`.
Note: The whistle sounds can get annoying, especially when you're desperately trying to catch that last damn sheep. You can turn whistles off and on in the Settings option on the title screen, or on the pause menu.
