SHEEPOID
The invasion has
started, time to stand by your defences because this game is VERY weird
indeed. Sheepoid is a tribute game, based on the classic Laser Zone by
Jeff Minter. The concept is simple. Shoot away at the evil vortex
invaders through 24 stages, and avoid them capturing your sheep. The
game concept is purely simple but difficulty is mighty hard. To make
this a tribute game to Jeff's crazy titles. I made this game as
psychedelic as I could to give that weird game feeling.

Sheepoid at RetroVision 2011
This was the highlight of the game. I created a special competition version of Sheepoin in which various game competitors participated in a competition. Where you play Sheepoid, have to blast the enemies as much as possible, and try to progress through 24 levels with just one life. No bonus lives whatsoever. This game was a success at the event. My brother even took part in the action, where he covered for someone else who was outside having a BBQ. Well, he failed miserably :) One shot of an enemy then got captured by the vortex invaders. (Chortle!)
