New from Team17 - Flockers is a twisted blend of Lemmings' inspired gameplay and Tim Burton style macabre, all topped off with a dose of that classic Worms humour!
Held for years within the evil thrall of the Worms, the sheep are finally making a dash for freedom! Escaping the tyrannical Worms, the flock must dodge their way past all manner of lethal machinery and traps as they negotiate their path through the confinement of the Worms weapons factory and onwards to pastures green.
Flockers will be coming to PC via Steam Early Access in Q2 2014.

Update: Team17 will unveil Flockers at gaming convention EGX Rezzed, which takes place in Birmingham, England from March 28-30. Attendees will be able to go hands-on with Team17's new Windows PC title.
The most important aspect of these Lemmings-type games is the level design. Everything else is simple programming in general. What I mean is that there is no serious reason for Early Access, alpha builds etc. They need to focus on a good Level Editor for user created content.
Instant access - Play Flockers right now! Twenty-five levels are available immediately and we’ll be updating and adding even more during the Early Access period.
Create your own levels - We’re including a powerful level creation tool, the "Meat Maker", that will give you the power to design your own deadly puzzles.
Steam Workshop integration - Share your own creations with the community and play challenging levels created by other Flockers players.
Discount - Purchase Flockers while it's in Early Access and pay less than the full release price.
Steam Leaderboards - Players can compete against their friends and others in an attempt to get the fastest time on a level and the fastest time in the story mode.
Star system - Player performance is assessed via a star rating system encouraging players to perfect each level.
The Art of Flockers - This fabulous collection of artwork depicts different elements of the game at different stages of its design from hand-drawn concept sketches through to full production graphics. Includes Flockers wallpaper, available in a variety of resolutions, for you to decorate your desktop with.
Digital soundtrack - Enjoy listening to the Flockers soundtrack with the juxtaposition of the flock's light-hearted naivety set against a backdrop of dark foreboding.
Lots more playable content and levels.
Steam Achievements - Demonstrate your gaming prowess and show off to your friends by earning Flockers achievements.
A third level theme.
Twitch support.
Physics object creation and sharing - Create your own physics objects, which can then be used to make new contraptions, and share them via Steam Workshop.
Normal And Expert Level Completion - Players have two objectives for every level in terms of saving sheep. Achieving the minimum number of sheep needed will allow progression through the game. Saving the maximum number of sheep is far more difficult and a different challenge entirely.
