Short, super fun and sweet. It has a lot of potential
Thanks, i have already thought what to do to expand this ;)
Short and sweet.
Thanks, as a game jam should be ;)
Interesting little experience. The rotating world took me a second to figure out what it meant, but very cool effect. Good luck expanding it!
Thanks, I wanted to make a fence around the house to "indicate" to the player to walk around, but I encounter bugs and my energy went there ;). I will expanding it so give me a follow if you like.
Very simple yet pleasant game. You kept this short and sweet, and most importantly, you gave us a complete experience. The dynamic of shifting from one side of the house to the next is a great interpretation of the theme and a nice surprise. I can see this expanding with some puzzle mechanics. Well done!
Thanks!
So satisfying! I really like the 3d turns and the dog's running animation with the floppy ears :)
Thanks after the jam I will make him even better!
Neat effect with the 3d house. A game about being a good boy. Wish there was more.
Thanks, I will be updating this in the future with more content levels and colors so give me a follow if you like.
Love the look of the game and the consistent art throughout. I really enjoyed the 3D aspect when you turned the corner as well!
Thanks!
Cute game! The 3d effect that happens when you walk around the house was awesome! Good job!
Thanks although its not original its a mechanic form one of the first indie games Fez.
Cute game, I liked the way you run around the house
Thanks!
Cool game! Motivating to retry if one failed first. The perspective solution you made is interesting to try for a future project of mine. Good take on the jam theme!
Thanks!
short and sweet - I loved the idea of being a dog that has to bark at different things happening around your house, and I think the house rotation was a good use of the theme! Good job :)
Thanks!
In my first run the thief killed my owner, which I was fine with as he was stingy with the dog food and treats and never took me for a decent walk. On my second try I was much better behaved. I'm not sure I see much theme, but it's certainly a very charming little game. Only comment is that I got a bit confused that I was meant to keep walking as it looked like I might fall into the abyss. But once I had that figured out, I enjoyed it.
Thanks for checking my game. I was planning to put an up arrow to let the player know that he can press it and turn the world but then i decided to put sounds to the cat, thief and seagull to indicate that there is something there and let the turning be a surprise.
Well, if that was the goal then it worked then as I did figure out what I needed to do.
I really liked the transitioning around the house, though I definitely didn't expect the lose screen.
Nice game!
Thanks!
That was a fun little game. The fail ending cracked me up.
Hehe thanks!
you nailed the topic! even if it's short everything works and I love the house rotation mechanic. Great Work!
Thanks!
the first time going around a wall was jarring, but a fun concept. good job
Thanks
Suprisingly dark when you don't catch the thief in time :D
Gotta be a good guardian to earn that food!
The scene transition is indeed quite amusing, like walking through a comic book.
Thank!
Nice game !!
Enjoyed how the scenery change.
Thanks!
Great game , loved the art well done !
Thank you!
