About This Game


Sheepo is a quirky metroidvania platformer featuring a shape-shifting sheep-thing, who must traverse an uncharted planet in order to collect samples of each living species for an intergalactic species database.

To capture a creature, Sheepo must find their unhatched egg, which happen to be highly guarded by that species "queen" (aka, a boss.) With each egg Sheepo collects, you then gain the ability to transform into that creature on contact, and explore the deeper reaches of the planets sprawling environment

Sheepo is a metroidvania, but contains no standard combat. Instead, gameplay is based on platforming and exploration. With the collection of each creature, Sheepo is able to dig, fly, and teleport across an interconnected series of landscapes, uncovering hidden shrines, old ruins, and strange characters.


  • Tight platforming with variety. Play as both Sheepo, and the variety of creatures you come in contact with. Gameplay remains fresh as you consistently learn the moves of each creature

  • Traverse a sprawling landscape with tons of hidden rooms and characters. Explore old mines, an abandoned mall, lush forests, the dingy sewer system, and much more.

  • 75+ hidden feathers to collect (the planets currency), which can be spent at the last remaining shop in DeadMall.

  • Non-linear gameplay. Sheepo begins somewhat linearly, but the map quickly opens up to allow you to make your own route.

Glad to have bought the pack with all your games. Getting through them 1 at a time. Super fun game. The speed and movement are great. Moving on to Islets now. Looking forward to 100% this later.

A fun, casual time. Short, but enjoyable enough that I played a second speed-run to grab the achievements.

Unusual metroidvania, instead of directly acquiring new abilities for your character you learn how to possess other creatures to then make use of their powers. There's a heavy focus on momentum-based platforming and the game's puzzles and boss fights get pretty creative within these boundaries, without ever requiring absurdly precise timings: the whole thing is pretty simple but will still require some brainpower, which is refreshing when so many games nowadays give you 10 different movement abilities and 9 of them end up being redundant. Short and fun, also extremely impressive for being Kyle Thompson's first game.

6.5/10 Fun little game, beat it in 3.5 hours on hard mode. There were a couple of annoying bosses and I'm not a huge fan of games where you can't heal, especially when you at the same time can't attack, but the movement and exploration were pretty good.

Short game, but very entertaining. I would definitely wait for a sale, as I got this game for three dollars, it does not feel like a 11$ game. Overall, music is good and game play is fun and challenging. 10/10

[h1][b]Dah's Game Score[/b][/h1] [h2][b]80/100[/b][/h2] Exclusively Played on Steam Deck OLED. Runs Perfectly at 60 FPS. 8+ Hours of Battery Life. First game from this Solo/Duo Dev and I have to say it was very fun. All about exploration and platforming, no combat. It wasn't the most complex Metroidvania, but what it did, it did right. Overall length is on the short side, but it kept me hooked to 105% Complete it. Definitely recommend! Now looking forward to playing the Dev's second game Islets!
