Good game, i like the cartoon-ish graphics of the game, as well as the overall of gameplay, i also liked the music. Only thing for me are hit indicators, whitch the game was lacking, besides that, i like this game

Unfortunately I wasn’t able to see all text and UI, it doesn’t seem to scale to 22:9 aspect, and the window wasn’t resizable ☹. The intro sequence was looking good though.

Developer

My bad, I didn't test it on that aspect.

That looks like something you can see on cartoon network after midnight. Very nice artstyle. Hold to attack would be nice, apart from that good job!

Developer

Thanks for the feedback!

It was a bit wacky but I had some laughs with the absurdity of it!

It's nice that you pulled multiple mechanics like attacking, defending and using dog abilities. I especially liked the poop bomb. However, attacking/defending felt too slow, and there could be more indications of hitting or being hit, as well as defending successfully. It works, just needs some more juice!

Basically the best strategy seemed to just defend while the dog exploded them with feces, as I was getting low on health by the end of it.

The soundtrack was very nice, reminded me of old Rare games.

Kudos on making a concise and short experience!

Developer

Thank you for feedback! I will work on these things.

love the art style and the atmosphere. it reminds me of the artist Thomas Brush.

your tutorial part did a very great job. it makes the learning curve much smoother.

btw i found that we have the same attack mechanics in our game lol

Developer

oh yeah we have lol thanks for playing!

Very chill and love the little melody in the background. The sword animation needs a bit of polishing, when I hit an enemy, it tends to miss completely even though I am near. Great job though! Keep 'em coming! :)

Art style is beautiful, also the dog firing poop in combination with silly music got me laugh. Really nice combination of everything. The only thing which jumps out of context is health bar, I think it would be more appeal without it. 

Developer(+1)

Okay, thanks for feedback!

i didn't expect the dog literally use poop as a weapon. cool game :D

Developer

Thanks!

Really fun!

Really cool and fun! And easy! For a change. I enjoyed it, liked graphics so much, and how everything is explained in details. For a change!

Developer

Thank you! I'm glad you enjoyed!

Nice game! The tag team idea was entertaining and the game was pretty challenging. Too bad there's no Megadog boss fight :'(

Developer

Thanks! Good to know

Submitted(+1)

I enjoyed the little story and it was fun to battle alongside the dog!

Developer

Glad you liked it!

Very interesting little game, doing the assets yourself is a huge plus as well, good job

Developer

Thanks for playing!

Cute little game. Reminds me of "Adventure Time". I like the animation of explosions, but the animation of the main character seemed to me too smooth (you need to add a little inertia to the movements).

Developer(+1)

Thanks for your feedback!

wow, very nice graphics , like the sound when dog is barking, the animations are made with spine right ? really nice approach, good job !

Developer(+1)

Thanks! I made characters in Photoshop and animated in Unity.

Fun game. The dog is cute :) It would be nice to have a separate key to stop the dog (not only the button on the screen)

Developer

Thanks for feedback!
