I like the vibe going on here. The thought bubbles from Bailey expressing what is happening in the environment is cute. The dragging items as a doggo is a fun mechanic.

The movement is a bit wonky though, there are times when I would release one key while holding another and I would stop moving. I'd expect to keep moving in the held direction.

nice game! cool graphics and responsive controls ,   though the area is way too big.  The narrative value is great and I was immersed with the gameplay finding ways to interact with the objects.  overall I enjoyed this, keep it up!

The player character is WAY too slow.

The game is so fun and I really love it

But I have some points

First, there's a little tearing and you could fix by make sprite atlas and put all tile maps in it

Second, the controls not very smooth I can't press 2 buttons in the same time like up and right

Last, there are a few bugs but I understand the time was tight

Overall, the game is so funny and great

GO ON BRO !

Thanks for the comments, and thanks for pointing out sprite atlas for us. Sprite atlas solves most of the tearing problem. At the beginning, my partner and I have talked about whether to allow pressing multiple directions, and my partner wants to simulate old style Pokemon games and only allows 4 directions. We have heard multiple comments suggesting allowing pressing 2 buttons (especially when changing directions upon pulling objects), higher walking speed, allowing running on streets. We will discuss those concerns and see if we can improve in the future. Again, thanks for giving feedback to improve the game!

Thanks for playing. If you get stuck in the middle, I have posted a video in the comment session of the game page. You can watch to get some ideas to reach the game end.

Cute game, Really like the art and story.

The movement felt a bit too slow and the pulling mechanics could use some improvements but the core is nice 

Good job!

Fun game with a lovely theme, just that the pulling mechanic is a little twitchy.
