Cute setting. That art hugging the dog is heart warming.

Good job!

Your game sure made me recall some walks that I was enjoying with my dog... until an off-leash dog (sometimes more than one) with zero recall would come charging at us... So honestly your game might have hit a little too close to home for me to completely enjoy it at first. But otherwise I really like the concept and game mechanics, I think it really fits the theme well. The art works with the vibes of the game and the little story is well told. Camera movement could probably be improved to not see a black background, and being able to hit enemies in all directions would have been nice. But overall good game, good job!

Hey, it was a great game. Fantastic artwork and intro. And the idea is right into the theme. Great work to all the team!

Submitted

Very cool game, lots of fun. Although, as many people already pointed out, it certainly lacks sound, but that's not really that big of a deal

Submitted

A cute little game, nice artwork, would have been a lot better with some sound definitely. Nice work guys!

Submitted

Very simple game. I think the premise is decently fun. Its annoying not being able to attack up or down. The lack of any sound wouldn't have been so bad if there was at least some looping music. The artwork is decent; I kinda like the wobbly walking animations.

Neat game.

Cute intro!!!!! The game gets very difficult very fast, maybe some health?

Submitted

The game quickly becomes extremely challenging. admire the opening's small work of art. I was particularly drawn to the moon. In my opinion, the character's head shouldn't have a hit box, and it would have been awesome to have the dog move with a mouse click. Fantastic work, especially given the limited time you guys had! Nice game all around! Could you kindly check out my game if you'd like to? You don't have to, but doing so would really help me.

Wow, I really loved the idea of moving the dog with a mouse click. I wish I thought of that before submiting ๐Ÿ˜‚

As a dog owner I really loved the idea!  :)

+Liked the story and intro slides at the beginning of the game

+The game was actually harder than I expected at first :)

-Some music would have been great and maybe some cute barks from the pup. 

Would you check out our game? Thanks!

Developer

Loved the art of the game, it is very pretty !

Nice intro as well, very cinematic, and very cute too...

Well done !

Developer

Thank you for the kind words ๐Ÿ˜Š

The game get really difficult really quickly. Like the little art in the opening. The moon really caught my eye. The characters head probably shouldn't have a hit box in my opinion and it would have great to see the dog move with a mouse click. Awesome job, especially for the time you guys had!

Developer

I totally agree with the idea of moving the dog with a mouse click, it would have been great, but unfortunately it never crossed our minds while making the game ๐Ÿ˜‚

Thanks for the tip and the feedback ๐Ÿ˜

Submitted

I really like the opening cutscenes and story telling :), the proportions seems a little off though - the grass seems to be as big as the player.

Developer

Thanks for the feedback ๐Ÿ˜

We will be more thoughtful of the proportions next time ๐Ÿ˜ฌ

Submitted

I had fun playing the game, but it would have been nice if there was a way to earn points and a simple background music also you could have made the attack animations a bit faster or made it so you couldn't spam it. Overall it has potential to become a great game and  I loved the story that you added in there

Developer

Thanks for the feedback ๐Ÿ˜„

We actualy had only a couple of days to create the game, between work and other stuff, so that's why the game isn't as polished.

Maybe next time we will have more time to spend on optimization xD
