Here's the skinny on the release update: New Stuff

• 5 New Campaign Levels, bringing the total level count to 60! (NOT including Bonus / Meat Maker levels)
• 1 New Bonus Level to unlock!
• More Rewards available to unlock!

• Fixed a crash that occassionally occurred when launching the game
• Fixed a crash in the options menu
• Fixed an OpenGL error that caused some users to be unable to launch the game
• Fixed an issue effecting blood graphics on some Intel graphics cards
• Made optimisations to min spec graphics cards Flockers can now support Nvidia GeForce 8600 GS/AMD Radeon HD 4650 and equivalent.

(score requirements have not changed) Level 6 - Removed 2 guillotines from the end of the level. - Slowed remaining guillotine down. - Moved exit point on ‘Robosheep’ further forward to avoid any potential sheep deaths on buzzsaw. - Extra 2-step formation and 2 releases so that the sleeping sheep near the rolling pObject can be saved. (score requirements have not changed) Level 8 - Edits made to the left side of the landscape. A hazard has been removed and teleports have been added as a means of getting onto the robot. - A hazard was removed from the lower right section to make it easier for players to work out what the constant switch's function is. - Only 1 constant switch is now used instead of the previous 2. - Changes made to the speed of the platform and the underside of the landscape to the right of the platform. This makes it possible to save the sheep sat on the switch. - 10 more sheep have been added to the right side. - Score requirements have been updated to 10000 / 230000 / 460000 Level 21 - Timer has been reduced from 71,000 minutes to 10 minutes. 0042346: MF1: Functional: Level timer on Level 21 begins at 71582:47 Early Access DLC - Early access bonus content is now available and can be found in the Flockers root install folder (C:Program Files (x86)SteamsteamappscommonFlockers). - Content can be found in the folders; Flockers Art, Flockers Soundtrack and Flockers Wallpapers.
