Interesting little experience. The rotating world took me a second to figure out what it meant, but very cool effect. Good luck expanding it!
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!
So satisfying! I really like the 3d turns and the dog's running animation with the floppy ears :)
Neat effect with the 3d house. A game about being a good boy. Wish there was more.
Love the look of the game and the consistent art throughout. I really enjoyed the 3D aspect when you turned the corner as well!
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!
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.
I really liked the transitioning around the house, though I definitely didn't expect the lose screen.
Nice game!
you nailed the topic! even if it's short everything works and I love the house rotation mechanic. Great Work!
the first time going around a wall was jarring, but a fun concept. good job
The scene transition is indeed quite amusing, like walking through a comic book.
