Turtle Shepherd – If Babe was about a turtle, it would be this game.

QUICK NOTE: Apparently Mystic Peanut Entertainment no longer exists, although the game wasn’t that great I think the developer had a good start that is, they completed a game and we all know how hard that is. I’m leaving this post up for posterity but the links have been removed.

Today’s review is going to be my most negative so far.  Most computer games are massive undertakings.  Although you can do it with a single person, it’s better to have more than one.  Even lone-wolf developers outsource some artwork and so forth.  This is why it’s understandable that not every game can be fun, or a hit.  Today’s game is called Turtle Shepherd, by Mystic Peanut Entertainment.  In it you play a turtle named Tuki, who has grown up enough, that he has to get a Job.  And what’s a turtle to do for work?  Why herding sheep of course!  This would be pretty cute if it didn’t have some flaws.  It’s a 3D game in the third person.TurtleShepherdSS01
