About Sheep Game (2018)
Sheep Game is a couch based multiplayer game best played with 2, 3 or 4 people.
The game features 4 fields to herd your sheep in. To win the game you need to win 3 rounds. To win a round you need to herd 3 sheep into the central pen and hold them there for 3 seconds. Controls are very simple, 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 defensive and block your opponents? Or will you become top dog by rounding up your sheep in record time using your speed and agility!?
So go grab your friends and challenge them to some fast and frenzied sheep herding.
Family friendly
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.
Best played with friends
Whilst you can play on your own to sharpen your skills against the robo dog, 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.
Simple controls but hard to master
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.
Break the deadlock with power ups
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.

not working with these gamepads: https://www.conrad.de/de/p/joy-it-gamepad-snes-design-gamepad-raspberry-pi-unive...
only one button seems to function (makes a barking sound) but can not move.
Great little game! My kids enjoyed it and definitely a game competitive adults could get a lot of fun out of too. Nice one!
I have paid for the game but I cannot see any launch/install instructions for linux after downloading and unzip the package.
same but im using windows(10)
It's sad that I cannot play with keyboard only (I don't have pads and I won't have). Up to 2 players should be able to play with single keyboard
I Feel your pain, I Just want to burn my Sheep enemies and have all of Thy sheeplings for myself friend, Long live Ze Sheep
