Interesting concept, I'm very curious where the rope fits in though. xD Best of luck with the game!

Good question! There's a simple explanation but [spoilers removed] ;-)

Translating Godot apps has a nice workflow. You can use .po files and extract strings from the source easily. Some languages, however, required a font change for me.

So if you plan to translate your game, ensure your font supports all your target languages or prepare for some funny font/text switching code ;-D.

I'm happy to announce I have just published Rope Cow on Itch.io !

Featuring...

Unique custom made rope physics
Single player story mode
A goals stage game mode (more stages coming up!)
Handcrafted home-made original hand drawn art and soundtrack
Glory and frustration learning to use the d#*@ rope
Tons of humour and cows!

Note that the game is in "early access" mode as I will keep adding some content and ironing out bugs during a few weeks (you know... indie dev lifecycle).

If you would like to support this project, please you can do so by purchasing the game, adding it to one of your collections on Itch, wishlist on Steam or follow RopeCow on Twitter. Thank you very much!

I really hope you like it! Thanks for your attention and thanks to the community and contributors for such a great engine!

Sometimes, when your cow feels lonely, you go on a quest of experimentation.

And so came out: "4-cow networked multiplayer" Do the rope! but not alone!

This is not part of the oficial release and is very experimental, but who would prevent you from playing around using --server and --connect <host> on the command line? I'm just mooing...
