On Baaarmy Herding, you herd sheep into different goals. The twist is that the scores associated with the different goals change over time. Watch out for the mustachioed bull! UPDATE: Lights have been added to the goals to show which ones have points. UPDATE 2: The corners of the goals have been chamfered to make herding easier. Let me know what you think of it and i'll happily play your levels! http://lbp.me/v/0rehtj http://i215.photobucket.com/albums/cc25/mercury7891/APhoto_6.jpg http://i215.photobucket.com/albums/cc25/mercury7891/APhoto_5.jpg

Very fun! However i think the field could use some graphical enhancements, It's a bit bland to' look at! Also, sometimes the Sheeps get stuck for apparently no reason and you have to change directions! Definitely nice. Please give a look at my Balance of Nature - The Enchanted Forest level If you can! For F4F!

thanks for the feedback. I've looked into adding more stuff to the field in the past, but found it to be too tacky. I 'll definitely give it a second look though. I'll check your level out later on.

One of the most original, fun mini game levels I played in a while. Pretty addictive as you try and improve your score on each successive play. Herding the sheep into the pens with allocated points is relaxing yet strategic, then a boss appears doubling the fun. If you survive the boss higher points can be earned in another herding section. Great Job hearted. F4F:https://lbpcentral.lbp-hub.com/index.php?t=57680-SNOW-WHITE-Noire

Hi Mercury, gave your level a spin, what a good laugh! thought it was good fun and quite unique.. some of the sheep got stuck on the bull which made us laugh more.. great stuff. To be honest I'm not sure if a level such as this needs to be anymore enhanced by graphics, as its the game play which is the winner here.. I liked the instruction also, simple but effective. Cheers.

Fun, chaotic level, here's my feedback: -Maybe a sound when the goals change? It was kinda confusing first time playing wondering why I wasn't getting any points. -The bull chase could've been more chaotic, maybe a change of music or colour scheem to make it more entertaining. -The responsiveness of the sheep could be improved, I'd get close and I'd have to try charging them again to get them to move. -Now if we can just have this in multiplayer this'd be a complete ball! Brilliant stuff! Usual F4F stuff of course.

Thanks for the feedback. Multiplayer is on the way but may take a while as the deadline for my cousework is looming.

Hey man this looks pretty cool! I'll queue it and leave you some feedback later. EDIT: I don't want to double-post, so I'll just put my feedback here... The Good Great gameplay mechanics The gameplay worked pretty much flawlessly except for one minor glitch I'll go over in "The Bad" section. Fun Mini-Game It's hard to make a simple mini-game that is enjoyable but you certainly pulled it off here! Original I haven't seen any other herding levels out there so to my knowledge this is a great original level! The Bad Pretty simple visuals Considering how the field is basically all you see the entire level, I'd recommend spicing it up a little bit by maybe adding some stickers. Also, the sheep could have been a little more detailed, but that isn't too big of an issue. One Time The score didn't work right when I herded a sheep in and it only gave me 200 points instead of 600 like it said. This only happened once so it probably isn't a big deal just something to look into. The What The Rating I gave your level a and a <3 but it could use a little more detail with the visuals and a multiplayer function would be nice too. F4F As for my feedback, since I don't have any levels out yet, could you just leave a post here (http://here), with your thoughts on the topic? People seem to be liking the idea thus far and I'm just trying to get it noticed by the big guys.

Yeah, i noticed that glitch during testing and wondered when it would crop up. I haven't found a fix yet because of the vast amount of logic in the level, it's like trying to find a needle in a haystack. Thanks for your feedback and i'll definitely check out your future levels and post in your topic

Oh, yeah. Forgot about this thread. I played this and thought it was awesome. It's a simple enough idea the way this is set up, I'm surprised I never saw this idea used before. I thought this was alot of fun, and I really enjoyed the 3 or 4 goes I had. In all honesty, there's very little to critisize, given it's a deliberately small, easy-to-pick-up minigame, but one thing that did get on my nerves repeatedly, was that useless checkpoint. If people only get one life, and don't get the respawn, anyway, why is that checkpoint just left randomly at the bottom? Get a Destroyer on that thing as soon as the player/players have spawned. The other thing that got on my nerves was how sheep got stuck on the fence every so often. If you miss the gates, they just sort of sit there until you come right up to them and shove them off. Perhaps make them flee from the walls once they've touched it for a few seconds. This would eliminate the problem of the sheep getting stuck, I think. And finally, I second the request for a sound effect or something more to alert players to the score changes. Other than that, I got nothing. Excellent mini-game, and something I'll no doubt return to so I can yell at my TV till those bloody sheep go where they're supposed to. I'd also agree with the other fellow who said there's no need for graphical alterations - it all looks very pretty as is. Also, I've never done this before, but seen as this is F4F, I'd love you to bits if you took a look at anything linked in my signature.

Support for two players has been added. Sound effects for when the scores change have also been included, aswell as the removal of the 'press triangle' screen.

I don't want to repeat anything the others have already mentioned, so I'll just state the things no one has yet. ?When collecting multiple sheeps at a time, the score giver only gives for the count of one. Though I can give you a simple yet very effective solution. - What you can do to fix this scoring problem is by giving each individual sheep it's own unique tag. Example, tag blue sheep 1, tag blue sheep 2, tag blue sheep 3, so on and so on.... I noticed that you had only 8 sheeps in total at any given time, which is perfect. Since there is only 8 tag colors you can choose from, you can just use the same tag names with different colors. After that all you have to do is set the new conditions for the scoring with OR gates and connect the new tag sensors that are reading the individual sheeps to the OR gate, it's that simple. I'm pretty sure you can fix this, if not, I can help you, since I'm pretty good with logics and I usually can read a creator's logic system they've developed pretty quick. ?I thought the raging bull was hilarious and kept me quick on my toes, herding sheeps all the while dodging horns. I especially like how you've increased the scoring when this happens. I however would like to see more bulls though. Would be much more funny. ?I thought 2 players was a little bit, 4 would be much more awesome, if you do add more players, you should increase the number of sheeps as well. Overall, I enjoyed the game, all the visuals matched, so no need for any changes. F4F: https://lbpcentral.lbp-hub.com/index.php?t=57817-Reign-of-the-Armada-Skies-of-Hell-%28survival-challenge%29

Thanks for your feedback. I've got seperate tags on the sheep already so it's just a case of adding seperate score givers for each sheep. I did try 4 players but it was a bit too hectic. I've added your level to my queue so when i get a chance i'll try it out.

Okay, review time! Originality This level is probably one of the most original levels i've seen in a long time, i don't think there's another herding game out there. Gameplay The new update has fixed the minor scoring bugs in the level, making an already great game a brilliant one. You herd sheep into various pens alone or with a friend and it almost works perfectly. One thing i will say though, is the sheep can sometimes get stuck on the fences surrounding the level but this was rare. I loved the bull towards the end. Aesthetics The level looks very professional and suits the gameplay perfectly. The menu could use some work, but it's still quite good. Overall A brilliant original level which deserves more plays than it's getting. Some minor faults but overall it's well worth a play 8.5/10

I've updated the level. The character now moves faster and new sound effects have been added. I'm now working on a sequel which includes powerups and new modes.
