What is Sheep Thrills?
Sheep Thrills is a mini game inspired by the video game Mario Party 8 (Boo-ting Gallery). Players must shoot sheep according to their team colour. If a player shoots the correct coloured sheep, they will earn 3 points. If a player shoots the wrong coloured sheep, they lose a point. After a certain amount of time (2-3 minutes.), the player/team with the most points win!

What different colours/teams are there?
There are currently 2 options for the teams.

Option 1:
Team mode, 4 teams of 2.
Colours: Red, Blue, Green and Yellow.

Option 2:
Solo mode, 8 players.
Colours: Red, Blue, Green, Yellow, Pink, Purple, Orange and Light Blue.

What are the different weapon choices?

Every player starts off with a wooden hoe as a weapon, they can use coins to upgrade their weapons.

Wooden Hoe>Diamond hoe>Bow & Arrow>Snowball.
(All weapons' speed will be different to prevent players from spamming a certain weapon.)
To make weapons worth buying, each weapon could have a particle when shooting a sheep. (Except wooden hoe.)

Perks?
Vip - 2 hat choices. (Glass and leather cap)
Vip+ - 5 different hat choices. (Glass, clay, wool, banner and leather cap. Colour of the hat depends on the colour of the team.)
Elite - Fire Charger as a weapon + 5 different hat choices.
Elite+ - Ability to pick team's colour + Fire Charger weapon + 5 different hat choices.

Maps:
Different themed maps. (Not good at building so no examples, sorry.)

I really like this suggestion and sounds like a lot of fun. I think that the VIPs should have at least 1 perk though, maybe they could choose a hat from a choice of 2? Also, Freeze tag and Ditto are around 2-3 minutes long so I think that would be a sensible time in this game as well. Other than that great suggestion. :thumbs-up:

Note: It is currently late and I'm a bit tired so excuse any spelling errors, grammar mistakes and any information which is missing. I will edit the thread as players start giving their opinions on it.




Nice game I would love to play it! I seen it on other servers and it turned out nicely. Yet this is pretty unique from others. Still how will it be balanced? And by this I mean I have 1.6 million coins and if I were to buy the highest tier how would it be fair for the other team? Murder can have decently huge advantages because of how the game isn't depended on the upgrades they just improve performance yet in this game unless I got it wrong the high weapons will over power the low ones. This allows teams to shoot sheep fast and get the correct color faster than others. Also what is the elite only weapon? Is it a replacement for snowballs for better effects? If it is a completely different weapon all together then this is pretty unfair to unranked and vips. If not never mind then.

Second problem... the teams should their be a system? A balancing one since it's straight up random people. Lets say team 1 is the best of the best and team 2 is very very new to everything and isn't good at all. How would this allow players to enjoy the game if they are up against a better opponent. Everyone doesn't like to lost yet it happens so how can you make a balancing system to allow teams to have fun?
Good luck on your game! I hope it gets implmented!

Mhm,
I think there was a misunderstanding with the weapons. (I apologize if I didn't fully describe the idea.)
All the weapons I mentioned have different speeds of shooting.
If I compare a bow & arrow with a snowball, the snowball would of course, be faster. (Which would be unfair.) So all weapons will be tweaked so that it will all be the same speed.

E/E+'s throughout the entire server have more perks than default and VIP/VIP+'s. Whether it's World Edit in Creative or more hats in Murder. This makes the ranks worth buying and the elite weapon (Fire Ball/Fire Charge) will do the exact same. It will only be another obtainable weapon which won't influence the game.

I haven't actually thought of the teams. But I believe if players are put into random teams, it would be more fun to get a new teammate each round and not get bored with the teammate you have now. All games will always have a player who's great at the game and a player who's not. This won't change and there's nothing we can do to make the game 'balanced'. Nobody likes losing but that's part of life. You either be a sore loser or you can display great sportsmanship. If a player wants to be great at a game, they simply need to practice :)

Thanks for explaining! Anyways best of luck in your suggestion. Balancing might be needed at some point yet for now the isn't really much competition on the server.
 
OH MY GOD!!! CHILDHOOD MEMORIES!

Yes! Bring back our childhood onto MCPZ <3
 
This seems a very unique and special game that partyzone is looking for. If this was a game on here I definitely would play it. It sounds so much fun. Definitely would like to see this on Pz
