Fun, Sheep based challenge!

Archive: 5 posts


Hello again.
Had the idea for this level a while back and I've finally finished it.

Just use your little sheepdog to herd the sheep around the obstacles and into the various pens.
Managed to get the flocking nature of the sheep to work nicely. Simply put, they flock together, but run away from danger. Each field has a different task to keep it interesting, and there's a twist at the very end

I'd love to know what people think. It's hard getting a level based around sheep noticed!
As always, if anyone wants to know how anything was done, or has any ideas for improvement, let me know!

Hi Crckles, heheh what a GREAT level!!! I had such a blast playing this,FANTASTIC idea, great simple, fun game play, if you can push this level, you are gonna be MM picked to be sure to be sure!

Couple of pointers....The part where you have to separate the two colors.....I put the two colours in the wrong pens before I realized, couldn't then get two of them back out of the top right pen, so had to restart (maybe make the pen colors more obvious)
I'm guessing it was tough to get them to herd, and it works BRILLIANTLY, but there were a couple of bits where it got annoying because they got stuck. Can you change the setting on the dog to be able to bark to make them jump and scatter perhaps? If you had something to get them out of being stuck against walls, it would be PERFECT!!!

Oh, and there were TWO pink mag keys visible, right near the end

GREAT job, well done !! 10/10 and a heart!!!


If you could F4F my level 'House of the flying diggers BOSS FIGHT' would like to see what you think.

Keep it up!

Shade.

Quick update. I have made the sheep avoid more problem areas so they shouldn't get stuck very often. Also made the yellow and blue pens more obvious (thanks shade_seeker).
Added some new pics of it looking a bit prettier as well
