Sleeping: Counting Sheep

Sleeping: Counting Sheep is a relaxing experience set on an isolated island in the middle of the ocean. You watch a peaceful pasture through a floating camera as sheep continually appear and leap over a fence. It is designed for streamers to entertain viewers while away from the keyboard, though anyone can use the Sleeping: Counting Sheep category on Twitch without owning the game.

Watch the pasture

When the game detects no keyboard or mouse input for a while, it automatically switches to cinematic mode, slowly panning around the pasture and its sheep. The game also offers a hands-off way to relax while streaming.

Interact through Twitch

Twitch integration lets viewers spawn sheep through chat events, subscriptions, follows and bit donations. You can set the chance of a sheep spawning for each event. Sheep spawned through these events carry the viewer’s name, and, if the “Baa’s” setting is enabled, viewers can communicate as their sheep using shortened messages or simple “Baa!” sounds.

You can adjust sheep spawning to make the experience more relaxing or more interactive. The game was made as a space for streamers to relax on Twitch, as an alternative to the “I’m Only Sleeping” category, which the description says is often misused.
