About Sky Shepherd

Sky Shepherd is an atmospheric adventure game where you play as the lone survivor of a skyfaring tribe. Use your flute to round up a herd of mysterious creatures and explore the sky with them aboard your glider.

Flying with the herd is faster and more fun than flying by yourself. You can send them off to investigate the ancient ruins scattered throughout the area, and they'll help you find your path. However, the world is dangerous, and you'll have to fly carefully to keep your new friends safe!

Features
  • Fluid graphics in a charming and elegant sky world
  • Contemplative and immersive gameplay
  • Accessible flying with adjustable inverted controls
  • Beautiful soundtrack

Игра Sky Shepherd - это уютный симулятор пастуха, где вы пасёте облачных овец на удивительных небесных островах. Расслабляющий геймплей, очаровательная графика и атмосферная музыка создают идеальную обстановку для отдыха. Это медитативное приключение, которое дарит умиротворение и заряжает позитивом.

"Sky Shepherd" is, I think, a student project of some kind? The graphics look too good for this to be an amateur game, and yet they're also not flipped. And there's no price tag on this. What do you do in the game? You fly around and "collect" some other flying things. It's a short experience, another reason this feels like a tech demo or student project rather than a complete game. In terms of visuals, this features fairly low quality low poly 3D visuals which will deter a lot of gamers, understandably. Gaming is a visual medium, and while some developers struggle with creating high quality visuals, failing to do so is a disservice to gamers. It's very difficult to recommend bad looking games. On the matter of pricing and value for gamers, most "free" games on Steam aren't really free. There's often nasty mobile app cash shops, or content locked behind DLC, or donations being requested, or any other number of shady pricing schemes that could mislead gamers, but in this case I'm glad to say this really does appear to be a fully free game. Nothing demonstrates a developers belief in themselves and their work than giving it away without any remuneration. This is a servic…

Boltgun 2 price: buy the sequel, or the cheap first game?

The Boltgun 2 price has no cheaper route on launch day — our record shows one listing, unmoved since September. The first game is the bargain, but a smaller one than it was.
