Flock: Sheep Death In A Toy World

12:00PM Leigh Alexander | Among Capcom’s E3 titles was a somewhat mysterious downloadable title called Flock, erroneously pegged early on as a “sheep herding simulator”. I got to have the title demoed for me by Proper Games design lead Geoff Gunning, a cheerful Scotsman, and had the mystery cleared up. It’s not a sheep-herding sim, but there is sheep herding. There is herding of adorable cotton ball sheep who live in a fluffy, stuffed-toy looking world, grazing peacefully in a patchwork meadow.

IGN Goes Hands-On With ‘Flock’

8:00AM Owen Good | Because, I dunno, herding animals around is fun or something, there’s an game coming soon via Capcom, called “Flock”, first noticed this week when the developer unveiled its E3 lineup. More or less, you’re manning an alien spaceship that’s making off with flocks, gaggles, coveys, clowders, murders, cackles, prides etc. of animals. Your means of encouragement? Why, a death ray of course. PETA should love the shit out of this game. IGN describes it in very Lemmings-friendly terms. If that’s your cup of tea, it’ll be out via Xbox Live Arcade, Playstation Network, and for PC download, soon. IGN: Flock Preview[IGN] More »

Flock Is Capcom’s ‘Super-Secret Project’

12:20PM Luke Plunkett | Capcom just whipped out their E3 line-up, waved it in our faces for a bit, and it consists of eleven games. Ten of which you’ve heard about before. One, however, you haven’t. It’s called Flock. Capcom are calling it “a new super-secret project”, and that’s about it. The latest issue of NGamer reveals, however, that the company are working on an “ultra top secret Wii title” (and it’s not Spyborgs), so that’s a little extra something to get your creative juices flowing.
