Hardcore Herding
Hardcore Herding
A game for GoedWare GameJam #16, themed 'You Can't Save Them All'.

Your name is Billy, you're a 16 year old farmhand sent out to help old man Garson. He's a bit rough around the edges, but otherwise a fine man. He's asked you to tend to his sheep come wolf season. That's a tall order: his 7 sheep are his prized possessions, and all you've got to defend them from the 10 waves of hungry wolves is some shoddy fences, a sprinkler and some firecrackers! What's more: sheep run around all over the place, making it impossible to fence them all in! Time to make some tough calls... that's just Hardcore Herding!
Will the flock survive?
My first submission for a gamejam, GoedWare GameJam #16. Had a great time!
For anyone who likes a challenge: my personal best score is surviving the game with a flock of 5 sheep. Would love to hear it if anyone beats it!
