Cue Team17&#8217;s new title, Flockers.<\/p>\n<p>The game has been likened to Lemmings, and players will control a steady and finite stream of sheep as they march their way through obstacles on their way home.<\/p>\n<p>Each stage is a sprawling, steampunk affair, and they&#8217;ve been filled to the brim with lots of meat-pressing machinery; spiky floors that make instant kebabs of your flock when they fall onto them; and anvils.<\/p>\n<p>Some of the tools you will have at your disposal to ensure your flock survive include: nominating a group of sheep to build a bridge, enabling sheep to fly over tall obstacles; timed-exploding sheep; and blocking sheep.<\/p>\n<p>Flockers is expected to arrive on Steam Early Access for PC in June 2014.<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" src=\"\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/mRjwxxIa9TM?rel=0\" height=\"338\" width=\"600\" allowfullscreen=\"\" frameborder=\"0\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>What do you think &#8211; is Flockers a game you would like to play?
