Herd (Full)
ยซยซยซยซยซยซ โข โข โข ยปยปยปยปยปยป
My most ambitious API project yet. EVERYTHING is 'drawn' with Actionscript - nothing in the library, 3258 lines of code, 3 games, and an online scoreboard, for under 20 KB (this version has sound so is bigger, just under 500 kb)
ยซยซยซยซยซยซ โข โข โข ยปยปยปยปยปยป
โข Sheep: Play as Elvis' dog Shep, the ovine saviour.
โข Burn In Hell: Fekmidog is a demon on a mission to singe some souls.
โข Skydrive: Protect London from hanggliding terrorists.

Scoring:
The score you get for herding a sheep (or lost soul/hangglider) into the portal is based on the number of seconds remaining. The more seconds left, the higher the score.
Running into wolves (or angels/biplanes), which damages you, gets you points - but not as many as luring a wolf into the portal.
You lose points when a wolf destroys a sheep.
At Game Over, each sheep saved throughout play is worth 500 points.
If you complete all 20 levels, you will receive a game completion bonus of 100000.

Yeah, I originally released it on NG August 05, but it's not on Kongregate and I expect most people haven't seen it yet, so I thought I'd add it here along with the rest of the back catalogue. Depending on how these go down, I'm hoping to submit some new games here before too long....

I think Shep's description is missing this line: -Portals will disappear when sheeps get near it :P
It's a good game. Perhaps not the best I've seen but definitely underrated (currently 2.4). People may just be playing the first mode, getting frustrated with those (admittedly annoying) teleporting portals. Maybe they could blink or change their color before disappearing. The enemies' respawn time could be a bit longer too.
At first I thought the 3 game modes would be the same, only with differing sprites, but they have different movement patterns which require different strategies in order to win.
Oh, and BTW, has my mind been twisted by years of Internet surfing or are "Fekmidog" and "Twatlington" obvious puns (though one doesn't necessarily exclude the other)?
