New Steam demo, Ultimate merch, sales, and PAX East!

[h2]Monkey around in the FREE DEMO for our new upcoming game, Ultimate Sheep Raccoon until May 11![/h2]

Ultimate Sheep Raccoon is a bike-racing party game where you and your friends build a course of ramps, obstacles, and traps! Dodge hazards, do crazy tricks, and use power-ups to get ahead of the competition.

What's in the latest demo?
  • New playable character, Monkey 🍌
  • New race track, Docks (plus the original Farm and Scrapyard levels)
  • Local and online multiplayer for up to 4 players on Steam
  • A variety of blocks, power-ups, and tricks to experiment with
  • And as thank-you for playing the demo, you'll unlock an exclusive in-game reward when Ultimate Sheep Raccoon officially releases
We've also made loads of changes since our last public demo:
  • Improved bike physics and controls for smoother rides
  • Improved how the camera follows players, and the camera no longer punishes you for going off-screen. Instead, it launches you back into the action
  • Introduced private lobbies, lobby codes, Steam invites, and custom player counts (2-4 max).
  • Increased points required to win, giving you more rounds to play and experiment with power-ups
  • New alternate control scheme: Trials style controls (use RT and LT to move), selectable from the main menu options
  • Bunch of new art
  • Miscellaneous bug fixes and improvements

Also, a little reminder that this demo is only a look at some of the content that will be in the final game. We're still working on big features like 8-player support, the custom level editor, and more characters - thanks for being so patient with us!

Your feedback helps us improve and shape Ultimate Sheep Raccoon, so we want hear from you! You can leave feedback in-game by pressing F1, or share your ideas/suggestions in the Clever Endeavour Game Discord.

And if you won’t have to chance to play the demo this weekend, join the Discord to be notified when future playtests are available. (And there WILL be more!)

A big thank you from us

When Ultimate Chicken Horse first came out (over 8 years ago), we never could have imagined it taking off the way it did. Our silly game jam project grew into a massive party hit that people play across the world and across generations. That's special. And UCH's success has allowed us to keep working in that party game space and create Ultimate Sheep Raccoon - our next step for awesome times together with friends and families!

We seriously can't wait to get it in front of you! 🚲

See you very soon,
Clever Endeavour Games
