No Brakes Games released Tiny Flock on September 30, 2026. The physics puzzle game is developed for VR and is available on PC VR via Steam and on Meta Quest. In Tiny Flock, the player is a shepherd who guides a flock of small sheep to a safe pasture. Stages are built as handmade-style 3D dioramas where objects can be touched and moved. Players stack objects, build bridges, pull ropes and levers, and sometimes break obstacles to clear a route. The game has 21 stages, and there is no single correct solution for moving the sheep through each one. The physics engine was developed in-house, and the soundtrack is cello-centric. It costs 2,050 yen on Steam and 3,000 yen on Meta Quest. A 21 percent launch sale on Steam runs until October 14. On Meta Quest, the game supports full hand tracking and passthrough; the Steam version supports hand tracking through Steam Link.
Tiny Flock carries the physics-play philosophy of Human: Fall Flat into a VR-only design, and its developer says that choice was deliberate. The studio built its physics engine from scratch for the project, and the game supports full hand tracking and passthrough on Meta Quest, while the Steam version supports hand tracking through Steam Link. Stages are presented as 3D dioramas made in a handmade style, and everything visible in them can be touched and moved. Alongside the puzzles, the game includes achievements, collectibles, and an original soundtrack centered on cello that matches its relaxed pace. The studio's CEO, Tomas Sakalauskas, described the project as a response to what flat screens cannot do, saying the team was proud of the result and wanted to make something that could only exist in VR. On Steam, the 21 percent discount runs until October 14.
