River crossing puzzle game, based on the medieval riddle about the farmer with a wolf, sheep and cabbage.


CONTROLS:

- click on the titlescreen to continue to level

- click on a character or the boat to move them

- click on the undo or redo button for undo or redo

- keyboard A and D also move the boat

- keyboard R is for undo

- you can use the period and comma keys on the keyboard to skip a level forward or backward, this functionality is mainly there so you can skip around levels if you have completed them previously. skipping a level you are stuck on is HEAVILY discouraged.


Thank you for playing!

There are a lot of levels and I still havent beaten the game

That...just kept going. And raises so many questions, like, why does the farmer even care about taking the wolves across the river?  How can the children be trusted alone with a wolf?  If he can afford three goats and a couple of slabs of meat, why doesn't he just buy a bigger boat?  Is there missing backstory?  Is there...

Very cool, though I don't like how the animals instantly eat stuff if a kid brings the food over as you have to do an annoying shuffle to keep them separate.

i didn't actually know the shuffle was possible untill i finished the game! all levels should be beatable without this move.

The shuffle being possible does kind of defeat the reason i implemented the instant eating; the kid has no authority and it should NOT be possible to bring a sheep and take back a wolf with them. i might have to make it so that characters can also eat eachother on the boat if there is no farmer present...

That would make more sense, using the same rules for the boat and the shore, also I made a leaderboard

Haha wonderful! it seems like you're using some sort of touch-screen for this run i didn't even know if the game would be playable on anything other than a computer thats cool
