Horrifying and confusing and entertaining all in one. The two hands mechanic I never fully understood, but somehow the sheep kept becoming more naked. Sadly I'm not a serious enough gamer to assume the recommended posture...

Honestly the most unexpected interpretation of the theme so far. I mean there's not much to it but I'm glad it exists. I appreciate the instructions for the proper playing form, it really added to my immersion.

I enjoyed the humour in this, especially the description on the mute button. I did feel the game was missing some sort of sense of progression. Maybe a counter or growing pile of yarn in the background? As it is, the sheep just fills back up with no record of all the spinning you just did. It's a bit sisyphean. The hand controls worked well though, it got a lot easier to spin once I got the hang of using the right hand.

Full disclaimer: I did not play in the recommended pose, as I don't think my keyboard tray could handle the weight.

Maybe I'm missing something but it seemed that even if don't use the hands the result is the same ? Edit: it only happens when both hands are directly next to the wheel. Funny how the wool grows back with a different color each time, but a bit weird that it changes color before the previous on is completely used and it doesn't fully grow back to its original size.

Presumably a potential portion of the project was programmed posing in the preferred posture for peak performances

That poor blue cotton candy sheep had to sit there in horror as I learned the controls. I weep for it. Cool game though

I could say it's missing yarn spinning noises or more gameplay or praise the goofy little visuals, but you very clearly accomplished what you set out to do in a day and a half with this so 10/10 no notes.

Very calming, although I did get a bit infuriated when the sheep recharged it's wool. Wish there was some rotating wheel audio to complement the good visuals. Cute game!

Another wool game! I've spun wool in real life, so the theme is close to home. It's a silly project and you did a great job. Pulling the wool feels nice and it's fun to watch our sheep friend get naked. Thanks for making!
