Okay we're curious: what did you name your Calicorns after? Any particular theme?

"Herdling is maybe five hours in length, but it's lovely, relaxing, and one of the 2025's best kept secrets." Thank you for this lovely review! www.windowscentral.com/gaming/herdl...

Who's returning to the peaks with us? 🗻

Although it was released just a little while ago the game that is next on my wishlist is Herdling by @okomotive.ch. Everything I have seen about the game looks beautiful, so it's definitely going to be on my streaming schedule soon. #Herdling #Cozygame

my favorite soundtrack of the year and a very special game to me. full of magical moments.

Whoever at @okomotive.ch had the idea to make the calicorns look and move like big one- or two-person muppets from a 1980s fantasy movie... genius. 😚👌

Have you given our making-of documentary a watch yet? 👀 bsky.app/profile/okom...

Another glimpse behind the scenes of our game's soundtrack, composed by the wonderful Joel Schoch 😍

😍😍

this really makes you appreciate herdling as a game and it’s worth your time, even if you haven’t bought the game yet!!

🎥 From concept to level design to art, sound, and music, what does it take to create a game like @okomotive.ch's Herdling? Go behind the scenes with the team (including an in-depth look at composer Joel Schoch’s dynamic score) in a beautiful, full-length documentary! Enjoy! 📺 youtu.be/4hLHeVp_G-Q

The @okomotive.ch team are all so kind and thoughtful, and I think that really comes through in this doc! I loved hearing about their process and teamwork. Also: I want to go back with @cabel.panic.com, and make a video that’s just him and Joel hanging out and playing obscure instruments together

Thank you for this lovely review, GameFFine!

Watch the Premiere of the Herdling Documentary that our lovely friends at @panic.com made now 😍😍😍 www.youtube.com/watch?v=4hLH...
