I really like how this game works and how nice it looks. But I cant stand the amount of hits you receive and how unforgiving the jump is. It gets extremely annoying when there are 5 objects in a row and you simply cant avoid hitting one. This may not seem like a major problem, but when you barely ever get extra health in the middle of the run, and the same problem occurs at least 5 times in the span of 2000 meters, it gets very frustrating.

I want to love this game, I really do. But it's really frustrating that I just bought a health upgrade, but I didn't really get anything of it. I have to still pay another 200 per run just to see that upgrade. It should be buy the upgrade, have the upgrade.
Thanks for the comment! You buy slots for hearts in a shop, and hearts themselves you can buy at the start of a run if you have enougth coins. What do you think will be the best way to get extra lifes?

Maybe an invulneralbility after getting hit? it's frustrating to die instantly after having sheep/cape instantly from 'bad luck' of getting 3 obstacles in a row. I don't see any kong points coming to you from 3 upgrade levels that change so drastically... saying this, still this is a great evolution of the running game archetype.

What exactly is the 'Make 9 combos' achievement? I've made several combos 9 or more, and I've made more than 9 combos in a single run, and I still don't get it.
Thank you so much for your comment and for your attention to Sheep Happens! We have fixed the mission description. In your case there should be 10 combos made instead of 9. We are really sorry for the inconvenience.

I would like to see like 1 second of recovery time from getting hit. That way you can't instantly fail by getting hit 2-3 times in a row without getting any chance to do anything.

Coins appear on screen in their regular groups but then disappear before you get to them, and some groups spawn missing coins from the normal pattern.

I would say that the number one frustration in this game is chain death. For example, if I have the sheep, shield, and cape, and I accidently miss a guy, I will lose the shield. Now if he was a hurdle bounce runner, I will lose the sheep, and if its two hurdles in a row I can lose the cape, all in half of a second. The game is wonderful and addicting, nobody can deny that you created a great game, but maybe a .2 second invinciblity on hit (like in Mario) would help balance tremendously. Also an instruction on how to kill Hermese would help (I can reach him and I have an idea on how to hurt him, but I am only guessing).
Thanks for the comment. We will think how we can improve this points. About Hermes: once you caught Hermes there is a daemon sheep appears on the right side of the screen. You need to tap on the sheep at the right moment to defense from arrows. Also, you can check how good the battle is going on the lifebar at the top of the screen (each time you tap on the sheep, two teeth goes out). You need to tap ~15 times to win. Upgrades lets you win with less number of hits. Pretty much that’s it.

It's a really fun game, I've been playing for about an hour now, nonstop too. Too bad it's only in beta right now, I'm really far in the game, and It's really addicting. Love the game, 5/5

I just wanna say I played this the first day hit beta, and was dissapointed with it.... so just wanna say good job on keeping up the work, much better :) always awesome when a developer comes into beta and honestly works to make the game better.

There should be a space button power-up. Every time you press space, he gets stricken with the LIGHTENING BOLT of ZEUS (in the but) and launches very far and fast. Anyone else agrees? Thumbs up.

I love the game its really fun and i love the cartoon style that is used! i tried out all of the extras like full screen and muting the sound and they all worked perfectly for me. i love the helmets and upgrades you can buy. but i would have to agree that the cost for a few of these are way to high for starting such as going from 600 coins to 2000 coins. and i also think it would be neat since we are allowed to get helmets to add in custom capes as well? just an idea! great game!

This game is really fun and pretty addicting, but the only thing that i have trouble trying to understand and accomplish are the goals that we as players are supposed to do, because just doing a mission that has a description of "jump on" i don't really understand jump on what? But other than that, the game is really fun and addicting and quite hilarious.

Hello everyone!
We are really close to the release of Sheep Happens on iOS. Thanks for the comments! The game has been finally polished and some new hurdles and animation were added. Also, now you can resurrect in Sheep Happens and continue running ;)
We are really really excited and would love to know what you, guys think about the new features :)

The glitch occoured again, I caught up with Hermes, had 2 hearts, sucesfully beat him with only 3 units of health left, and gained a shield from beating him. Once again, I loose the shield, my cape, and the two extra lives all at the same time and simply fail right there and then.
Thanks for explaining, we've made a change, so now you won't die after fighting with Hermes (even if you lose). It shoud fix this problem. I will write as soon as we'll upload the latest version.

I'm noting a strange glitch where I fight Hermes and either win/loose, he kills me, strips me of my cape, and just knocks me out completely. Is it normal for him to instakill you if you win?

This game is great, I really like the art work and the attention to details. I like the background changes as you go. I think the upgrade costs are much better now, when I first played they were steep. Keep up the good work!
I believe that you managed to catch him, once you are asking how to beat him (if not, then you need to run 2000-2200 m and after you’ll see Hermes). So, once you caught Hermes there is a daemon sheep appears on the right side of the screen. You need to tap on the sheep at the right moment to defense from arrows. Also, you can check how good the battle is going on the lifebar at the top of the screen (each time you tap on the sheep, two teeth goes out). You need to tap 15 times to win. Upgrades lets you win with less number of hits. Pretty much that’s it ;) Good luck! Don’t let the sheep happen ;D

I don't understand why everyone is being so harsh on this game. It is very addicting, has a great art style, and awesome controls. It could use a few tweaks, such as an upgrade for starting speed and more levels, but I could see this ending up as a competitor for Burrito Bison. Nice job guys, keep up the good work ;)
Thanks for your comment! More is coming we are working on the upgrades at the moment and some of the features you've mentioned will be included there. Also we have a resurrection system in plans :)

Hearts aren't useful enough. I would suggest that a heart gives you back the cape and perhaps a temporary shield when it is consumed

I really don't like how the shield will be taken away before the sheep I'm riding does. Especially since I've got my shield upgraded 3 times and its still lucky to see more than one every 2000 meters.

Ive just started and Ive noticed when you try and go full screen if it cant "Switch to requested Monitor size" it crashes Unity Webplayer.
It seems that we have fixed full screen bug in Sheep Happens. Please check the latest version (1.6.3) of the game. Sorry again for the problems with the game, we all hope this time it will finally work good for you! :)

As I look upon my cheering croud, i forget to look ahead, tripping on a sheep. There, a chain reaction starts that topples 3 sheep lifters and 2 bull lifters, making sheep rain from the heavens and topple the runners in front of me. I can't help but wonder where all the sheep came from, or why hermes gave me the boots that started this whole mess, but my main thought is to try again..! and again... and again...
That's a really good question! Thanks! So, the story goes to the Greek mythology according to which Hermes is an Olympian god and a god of trade also. He is a big trickster, and outwits other gods. Hermes sells one of his “goods” (flying sandals) to Perseus, who is taking part in the Olympic Games and wants to win. BUT one thing that Hermes doesn’t tell Perseus is that sandals are not properly working: they are unstoppable. Happy Perseus (who actually wanted to cheat also!) starts his run and only after the finish line realizes that he cannot stop :)
As for the sheep – they are coming out from the rope pullers once you jump on the rope made out of sheep.
Good to hear that you are keep trying :)

maybe its just my internet but load time for this game seems impossibly long, ive been waiting about 5 min so far as i write this

A complaint 3 actually.
Not enough variety
Be specific with your objectives
And the screen is too dark make it lighter
Other than that its fun and addictive :D

I love the game. One change I would like (but is not necessary to enjoy the game) would be to add small mini-games (like a battle in the colosseum where you can wager gold against an opponent (100easy/500medium/1000hard difficulty), sword fighting for gold ('up' attack high, 'down' attack low, 'left' block, 'right' jab w/ shield), and possibly bow and arrow bullseye/target shooting for gold (higher cost for smaller (longer range?) targets with higher payouts?
Thanks for your comment! There is one mini game in Sheep Happens so far. Once you run pretty fast you can see Hermes who is flying and teasing Perseus. You can catch him and fight :) Your ideas seem to be really interesting and we are planning to include some of them into upgrades (shooting, other bosses, and some new controlling mechanics) :) Thank you!

Really good core game. I'm really impressed with how tight the controls are and tactile the obstacles feel. My suggestion is that you give players more of a feeling of progress. It seems like the missions are randomly generated and it'd be a lot more satisfying to work through them towards an end, possibly unlocking new, randomly generated missions afterwards. And more than that, and ending would be good. I made it 17.5k meters and it just keeps going on.
Also, as fun as the combos are, it'd be great if we could unlock new moves as we continue to play. Being able to do a double jump on a sheep or when you've lost the cape would be great, and even something like carrying or throwing sheep, or grabbing the lifters pole for a polevault move, with everything rewarding and escalating amount of coins so that it's not just looking cool.
