Reykjavik-based developer Bunkhouse Games, and indie publisher Shoreline Games have today announced an upcoming Steam Next Fest demo, and revealed the brand new gameplay trailer, for upcoming co-op action adventure Flock Off! as part of IGN Live. The newest trailer showcases more of the hilarious, chaotic, and absolutely bonkers gameplay on offer when Flock Off! launches later this year, giving another glimpse at the sheer volume of highland horrors that await.
Playable as part of Steam Next Fest from 15-22 June, the Flock Off! demo invites players to grab a friend, or three, for some 1-4 player PvE co-op carnage as they head to the Scottish Highlands to cull the undead sheep incursion. With both the prologue and Lochblight Forest level available, players will get to grips with an assortment of creative and convenient weapons as they (hopefully) survive long enough to fend off waves of sinister shambling sheep.
In Flock Off! 1-4 players are dropped into an alternate reality version of the Scottish Highlands where a scientific experiment has gone horribly wrong, resulting in the undead zombie sheep uprising. Herds of vicious (and slightly radioactive) livestock roam the landscape, and players will need to utilize their wits, fists, and the environment in order to stay alive. Everything that isn’t nailed down (including co-op partners) can be used as a weapon to fend off the onslaught of live undead stock. A bedroll, potatoes, and a shelving unit that’s probably too big to actually throw… all make excellent weapons in a pinch, and will be crucial so players don’t end up flocked.
