changedSo I built the game inspired by childhood wonders. A sky world full of floating islands, fluffy sheep to shear, pooping pigeons to chase, outfits to collect, and characters who actually have something to say. Did you ever imagine or dreamt about flying low and then going high into the clouds? I did... a lot :D And guess what? I developed exactly this inside the game.

Shear Heaven exists because of my two sons (ages 4 and 6) and how they make me remember how my childhood was. I watch them play every day and noticed how they jump on everything. They like to chase pigeons in the park and laugh when they poop. They collect anything they can get their hands on, they try on every costume they find and they ask a million questions about everything; like I used to do.

A free demo is available right now if you want to try a glimps of how my childhood felt! I'm 41 now by the way :D I'd love for you to try it and tell me what you think. I'm here, I'm reading everything, and your feedback directly shapes what the full game becomes.

Drop a comment, leave feedback, or just say hi. I'm not going anywhere.
