About Sheep Game
The sequel to Sheep Game is coming later this year. Wishlist Too Many Sheep today! https://store.steampowered.com/app/2410820/Too_Many_Sheep/
Sheep Game is a couch-based multiplayer game best played with 2, 3 or 4 people.
The game features four fields to herd your sheep in. To win the game, you need to win three rounds. To win a round you need to herd three sheep into the central pen and hold them there for 3 seconds. Controls are straightforward, point the analogue stick in the direction you want your dog to run, and it will follow your command. If you pick up a power-up, you can trigger it with the action button.
Will you play defensively and block your opponents? Or will you become a top dog by rounding up your sheep in record time using your speed and agility!?
So grab your friends and challenge them to fast and frenzied sheep herding.
Sheep Game is a family-friendly game to be enjoyed by young pups and old dogs alike. It is free from any violence or swearing.
Whilst you can play on your own to sharpen your skills, Sheep Game is best played with friends gathered around. Up to four people can play head-to-head.
Don't have four controllers? No problem; Sheep Game supports four players using two controllers.
Sheep Game is easy to pick up, you'll have your dog running around in no time, but keeping those sheep under control will take time to master.
Having trouble with your rivals? Use a well timed power up to freeze them in their tracks or give your self a speed boost to tip the balance.
Sheep Game requires game controllers, but there is some support for a keyboard.
Player 1: arrows + enter (action button / join game)
Player 2: a (rotate left) d (rotate right) w (move) + s (action button)
Player 3: c (rotate left) b (rotate right) g (move) + v (action button)
Player 4: j (rotate left) l (rotate right) i (move) + k (action button)

"Sheep Game" is an abandoned Early Access attempt to make a family friendly couch multiplayer sheep herding game... basically get your sheep to the middle, or stop other players from getting theirs in. Choose your own strategy... of course nobody played this or wanted it and the developer abandoned this over 5 years ago, so it will never be completed. The game features really lacklustre 2D visuals (does the developer not know 3D graphics became mainstream in the mid-1990s?). Gamers don't spend thousands of dollars on gaming rigs to pretend they're mobile phones or Commodore 64s. It's free for now, but the developer intends to charge for this if it ever leaves Early Access... but considering the poor public reception, it's likely this will not be one of the 25% of games that ever gets finished and leaves Early Access. Even though this is "free", it failed to appeal to the 120 million+ gamers on Steam. SteamDB showed the game peaked at just a dozen or so concurrent players, and now there's basically nobody playing it. Even though it's free. This is a dismal public reception, but it's easy to see why gamers rejected it. Bearing in mind that free games don't add +1 to your gam…2 found this helpful
Игра «Sheep Game» — неожиданно увлекательная головоломка с минималистичным дизайном. Основная задача — управлять овцем, преодолевая препятствия и собирая предметы, чтобы открыть новые уровни. Графика простая, но стильная, а механика логична и интуитивно понятна. Плюс — разнообразие заданий и постепенное усложнение. Минус — ограниченное количество уровней и отсутствие сюжета. Подойдёт тем, кто ценит краткие, но цепляющие игры. Рекомендую попробовать, если любите интеллектуальные задачи.

Appears to have been abandoned while still in early access. It's not bad for a quick 10 minute giggle. Keyboard controls are not explained clearly. Limited content. The sequel, Too Many Sheep, is a significant improvement - go straight to that instead if this style of game interests you.
