[ RELEASED ] Sheep Quest - Released!
« on: 12 Apr 2012, 17:52 »
After several years of production I proudly present



Molly the lamb has run away! Can you help shepherd Angus to find her?

Meet quirky villagers, collect items kleptomanically and enjoy colorful graphics during your quest. This game features a simple left/right click interface and a fluffy white sheep GUI.


Oh no, where is Molly?


Can she help you with your mission?

This game has been released! Visit the official thread


Update 07/10/2012
The last animation is done, I just need to fix some issues found by my testers.
The game will be released on October 14th!

Update 23/09/2012
It's been a while since the last update, but we have been very busy in the meantime!
HandsFree, who is doing the music for this game, has made some amazing tunes and the soundtrack is completed now. I'm still working on animations and the last scripting issues.

Beta testing will start soon, so if you are interested in testing, please PM me. Testers found!

Update 06/05/2012
The game is playable from start to end now! Of course it is still missing tons of sprites, animations, interactions, dialogs and the minigame (yes there will be one!)
But - I'm making good progress and thus dare to announce a release by the end of this year!

Musician needed
I need 3-4 MIDI tunes with one of them being in the style of traditional Irish music. PM me if you are interested!

Musician found!

Story/Puzzles: 100%
Backgrounds: 100%
Sprites/Animations: 100%
Coding/Dialogs: 100%
Music/Sounds: 100%

So watch out for the woolliest adventure to come!

This looks wonderfully wonderful. The simplistic (not negatively simplistic) graphic style, gives this a cute edge. I would suggest decreasing the lightness of the outline color of the font though. To give it more contrast. Apart from that, all I have to say is "finally!".

Keep us posted.

That sounds like it'll be made especially for me

I already like it!

Good luck for this one!

Love the graphic style, and agree that the font needs to be darker.  All the best with development!!

Thank you so much for your nice comments! This is really motivating for me.

You are right about the font color, I'll take that to Critics' Lounge.

In the meantime, here is another screenshot for you:

No, because Irish stew is made from lamb 8-0 Poor Molly is certainly not going to end in the saucepan!  (wrong)

I would be interested of composing this game.... althought I really would need to study more about traditional irish instruments and music.  (roll)

Oh, and yes, I do not make midis... but full audio of real sounds.  8-)

Ask if you want me to compose your game.

One thing that I would like to see happen with films is for music not to be treated as just one more ingredient, but as an integral and fundamental part, due to its fatal capacity to affect the mood of the movie.

Hahaha, don't they say in "There's Something About Mary" that there should be more meats on a stick?
