CrazyCattle3D is a game based around tipping over sheep to make them explode or forcing them to run into a fence where they'll also explode. It's also known for being "that one game you play when you're bored in history class."

environment.tscn#

A level that goes completely unused in the actual game. The level starts with a few hundred sheep, which all die fairly quickly. The skybox is a stock image of a sheep.

Most notable is the ground, which is made up of what appears to be a screenshot of the developer's monitor, internally named games.jpg. The system clock is dated 17/07/2024 (nearly a year before the game's release), and the images depict an as-yet-unreleased project called "Chicken Game" by "annasoft". The wallpaper is from LSD: Dream Emulator.

Debug Win Cheat#

Pressing Ctrl + ⇧ Shift + End will make you win instantly. The key combo is called debug_win in the game's input map, which may suggest it was an accidental leftover.

Development Quirk#

Please elaborate.
Having more detail is always a good thing.
Specifically: Explain this better.

A sheep, coded like a car in Godot.

This game has many development quirks, as it was developed by a single person who claimed not to have any professional programming experience. One such issue is that all sheep are programmed like cars, which isn't an issue by itself, but this combined with the six Area3D hitboxes in each sheep (for the wheels) creates problems in levels where there are hundreds of sheep, causing the game's infamous lag.
