[p]Hey all![/p][p][/p][p]Thanks for checking out our demo. We hope you enjoy our take on a relaxing co-op party game, and if you have any feedback about the demo, we would love to hear it! [/p][p]Below is our FAQ for almost everything you need to know. We’ll keep updating it as development progresses.[/p][p][/p][p][/p][hr][/hr][p][/p][h2]🐏About the current demo[/h2][p]Q1: How many players?[/p][p]A1: The game supports 1–4 players, with 2–4 being the core intended experience.[/p][p][/p][p]Q2: Can I play on Mac?[/p][p]A2: Not natively. But as a workaround, you can use third-party apps such as Whisky to have it run.[/p][p][/p][p]Q3: Is couch co-op supported?[/p][p]A3: Yes, up to four players can play on the same computer![/p][p][/p][p]Q4: Does it include online multiplayer?[/p][p]A4: Yes. The demo now supports both local couch co‑op and built-in online multiplayer. Steam's Remote Play Together also works as an alternative.[/p][p][/p][p]Q5: How do I invite more players for local co-op?[/p][p]A5: Simply connect additional controllers—they will be detected automatically, and your friends will be able to jump in.[/p][p][/p][p]Q6: Can one player use a controller, and another use a keyboard?[/p][p]A6: Not yet. That’s something we’d love to support, but unfortunately, it’s quite complex to implement with our engine. For now, we can’t promise it’ll happen, sorry![/p][p][/p][p]Q7: Do DualShock controllers work?[/p][p]A7: Yes, via Steam Input without extra software. We now support both Xbox and PlayStation controller in the demo![/p][p][/p][p]Q8: Can I play on Steam Deck?[/p][p]A8: Yes, it works on Steam Deck. If you run into any bugs, please don't hesitate to let us know![/p][p][/p][p]Q9: Is solo play available?[/p][p]A9: Yes, and you can adjust the difficulty level in the Settings. Although we'd say the game is optimized for 2–4 players :)[/p][p][/p][p]Q10: What languages does the demo support?[/p][p]A10: For the demo, the game now supports 10 languages in total: English, French, German, Japanese, Korean, Portuguese, Russian, Simplified Chinese, Spanish, and Traditional Chinese.[/p][p][/p][p]Q11: Can demo save files carry over to the full game?[/p][p]A11: No. Demo saves unfortunately won’t transfer.[/p][p][/p][p]Q12: What’s new since the last demo?[/p][p]A12: Here are the release notes of the current demo: [/p][p]Check out the update notes![/p][p][/p][hr][/hr][p][/p][h2]🐕About the full game[/h2][p]Q13: Is the full release PC-only?[/p][p]A13: Yes, for now. Porting to consoles isn’t confirmed, but it's something we’d like to do in the future![/p][p][/p][p]Q14: When will the full game launch?[/p][p]A14: We’re targeting a 2025 release, and we’ll be sure to let you know when you can play the full game![/p][p][/p][p]Q15: How much will the game cost?[/p][p]A15: The price hasn’t been finalized yet, but we'll announce it closer to launch.[/p][p][/p][p]Q16: This game seems to rely heavily on colors. Will I be able to play normally as a color-blind person?[/p][p]A16: Thanks to the feedback from our playtesters, we’re aware of this concern and are planning to implement a color-blind mode. It's already on our roadmap![/p][p][/p][p]Q17: How many maps will the game include at launch?[/p][p]A17: We’re currently creating more maps, but the final number hasn’t been set yet. We’ll share updates as soon as we have more information.[/p][p][/p][hr][/hr][p][/p][h2]🤝Community & Feedback[/h2][p]Q18: Can I stream or share gameplay videos?[/p][p]A18: Yes, please do! Shepherding is more fun together, and we may even promote your content on our social media.[/p][p][/p][p]Q19: How can I send feedback or report bugs?[/p][p]A19: Post in the Steam Community, or hop into our Discord. Screenshots or video clips can help us immensely![/p][p]Join our Discord![/p][p][/p][p]Q20: How can I support the game?[/p][p]A20:[/p]
