The Cool Herders Status Forum (http://www.harmlesslion.com/phpBB2/viewforum.php?f=5) has been updated with videos of the commercial version of Cool Herders in action. For those who don't know, Cool Herders is a party game where you have to collect as many sheep as possibly while keeping your opponents from collecting their share of sheep. The game was originally released as part of the DCTonic collection disc that was passed out at E3 2001, and later updated in 2003. There are several differences between the released demo, and the commercial release:
* Single Player "story mode" tells the tale of Zeus and his sheep, Chrys, hunting down Iskur the storm lord and trying to retrieve his sheep!
* Six worlds (plus unlockable ;) )
* Six different herders (plus unlockable ;) )
* Animated stages
* Full soundtrack (or at least better than the single tune ;) )
* Options to tweak gameplay (to replicate the original demo or use all the new features)
All of these are subject to change, and may or may not appear in the final commercially released game.
