Man, I was playing this last night and got stuck in the first room... I can't find the wallet anywhere!

I've been held up on the courtroom drama. I played Goat Herd and the Gods, which has nothing to do with the characters in this -- I swear!



Just don't tell the folks at Dropped Monocle, okay?

I'm watching you 

its going well...

Merry Christmas Everyone

I like the look of this, nice work

Hey! I don't think we have spoken before and I'm still trying to get to know people but I wanted to say WELCOME BACK!

RockPaperShotgun just made a post about Goat Herd :O

Cute. Did you make it in AGS?

This video was done mostly with Anime Studio, with the background art done in Sketchbook Pro... then put all together with VideoStudio Pro.

Curious to see some gameplay now!

Hopefully we will have something to show gameplay wise in the new year

Just a little teaser for our next game, hope this is the right place to post this

Problem is correct... I hadn't put on the sprite compression (Sorry!), I'm working on it now and will have the updated (smaller) version up as soon as possible

Update: The installer version (99mb) is updated and the intalled file size should be about 189mb now, very sorry about the mistake and I hope you enjoy the game

Update 2: Zip version updated too

oh man, this looks great.. I love the flash art style myself! and looking at the gifs you have posted it looks smooooth

 

Spoiler

Congrats you found a little easter egg! It was a silly bug I made at the start of development that we left in as it makes us laugh.. so its not a bug.. its a feature

[close]

I am so so sorry, I have found the bug and fixing it now! I'll be uploading and changing the links ASAP,
I'm really sorry you have had this waste your time!

Update:
The Zipped version is now fixed hopefully, but I'm really sorry to say that old save files may keep the same bug, so to avoid this you may have to start a new game..

Update 2: okay, both versions are fixed

WOW this looks great! I love the art.. nice work

Life was pretty peaceful for Atl the Aztec goat herder.
That is until the legendary El Chupacabra showed up to decimate his four legged friends. Against such a mighty foe,
how can Atl save the day? Maybe with a little divine intervention?
Join our cowardly goat herd on his journey and find out in Goat Herd and the Gods!

Goat Herd and the Gods is a short point and click adventures game, and is the second title from Dropped Monocle's team (Soxbrooker & Myinah)

>>DOWNLOAD NOW<<

The Goat Herd and the Gods Original Soundtrack composed by Denis "Problem" Comtesse is available to download now.






Update: Non installer version download

Thank you everyone, we feel like we have all the testers we need now! I have sent PMs to Michael2968 and splat44 and look forward to hearing from you both.

UPDATE:
We have been working away quietly for a while now and the game is almost complete! Yaaaay!
Goat Herds is now in the final stages of Beta and play testing and we are recruiting testers is anyone is interested >link to recruitment<
The game is pretty much finished and we just have a couple of bits left to polish up like the menus and some custom music to add to the final cutscene, but that's pretty much it!
Unless the testers find something horrendous that sets us back we anticipate a December release at the latest.

so here are some updated screens

Hey guys

Dropped Monocle Games are looking to recruit play testers for our latest game, Goat Herd and the Gods. We are at the beta test phase and have a pretty much complete game now, just working out the kinks and polishing it up. Reply to this thread or PM me and we'll be in touch.

Thanks!

Really enjoyed this and its great to see someone else using AnimeStudio! the bone system takes some getting used to but you can get some really smooth animation when you have worked it all out, feel free to ask if you need any help with it, I have spent months pulling my hair out working out how to use it hehe.
What software did you use to paint the background?

I have finished mine
