Upcoming demo for Ultimate Sheep Raccoon (Feb 21-23)

Free demo available from Feb 21-23!

Hey friends, our very first public demo of Ultimate Sheep Raccoon will be available for FREE from Feb 21 - Feb 23 on Steam!

The demo goes live on Feb 21 at 2 PM UTC / 9 AM Eastern!

Did you know we were making a new game? Ultimate Sheep Raccoon is a bike-racing party game where you and your friends build the course together and race to the finish line. It’s like a spiritual successor to Ultimate Chicken Horse, and it absolutely has the same chaotic hilarious party shenanigans.

Just a reminder that the demo is only an early build of Ultimate Sheep Raccoon and we’re actively working on the game, so you might encounter bugs and features that are still rough around the edges.

The demo will have:

• Two race courses: Farm and Scrapyard

• Local and online multiplayer for up to 4 players on Steam

• Blocks, power-ups, and tricks to play with

• Four favourite characters to choose from: Sheep, Raccoon, Chicken, and Horse

While our full release will have even more features - including 8-player support, the custom level editor, and new playable characters - we’ve packed the demo with lots of racing action, and we’re super eager to hear your thoughts.

Player feedback early on is very important for our game development process. So if you’d like to share your ideas or suggestions with us, please join the Ultimate Sheep Raccoon Discord.

Stay tuned for the demo on February 21, and please wishlist Ultimate Sheep Raccoon! We can’t wait for you to join us on the track later this week! (And if you're not able to play the demo this time, join the Discord to be notified of future playtests.)

Sincerely,

A big thank you from us

When Ultimate Chicken Horse first came out (over 8 years ago), we never could have imagined it taking off the way it did. Our silly game jam project grew into a massive party hit that people play across the world and across generations. That's special. And UCH's success has allowed us to keep working in that party game space and create Ultimate Sheep Raccoon - our next step for awesome times together with friends and families!

We seriously can't wait to get it in front of you! 🚲

See you very soon,
Clever Endeavour Games
