The concept is really cool and well implemented!
Dog! Good dog. Good name. Good use of theme.
The controls are really unintuitive though. Does the game restart when the ball falls on the dog? Or is something else happening. I'm not sure what I'm doing. I got to level 3 and couldn't figure out how or why I passed level 2.
Really like the look of the game, really cute. I struggled a lot with second level though, just couldn't seem to get the dog up! I'd love to see this expanded more though, would make an amazing mobile game!
The poor dog ! Swinging it is very fun tho !
Cute game! It wasn't immediately obvious that landing the ball on the dog would be a bad thing and occasionally when you reset you get flung around a lot which sometimes just finishes the level straight away. It has potential though, keep at it!
Pretty pixel art!
There is a problem with stucking in walls, but after polish it will be a good mobile game, I think :)
I really enjoyed the main mechanic, despite it getting a bit buggy sometimes, there is definitely charm to this game and more to be expanded on if you wanted to keep it going post-jam!
I feel the time slow down is quite necessary to surviving a few of the puzzles, but perhaps it's a bit too slow. It was easy to cheese some levels by just maintaining a click as often as possible. I'm sure there's a nice balance in there that could let you really excel with slightly altered level designs!
Fun game though, good job!
Thank you very much, it means a lot!
Really nice pixel art!
Yeah, I love the crisp and consistent pixel art!
My prisoner-dog got stuck in level 03. Maybe I need more skill. I'll try again next time.
Pretty fun concept and could make a good mobile game after a bit of polish. There's a few bugs with the dog getting stuck on walls and the ball going crazy when restarting the level.
That's a fun twist! I like the lazy dog haha. Really a fun game. You should definitely polish this up and release it on mobile!
Fun little game. I played it to finish the levels but not to have the less amount of strokes. I feel like the controls are a bit clunky which is perfect for a fun wacky game but not for making precise shots like in a golf game. I liked the music!

Cool game! Funny twist that you move the ball instead of the dog. Great amount of levels for a jam game. The first levels where pretty hard though. Keep it up!
Like a modern, very scary, golf
Cute game! I really like the art. Ball felt a bit incosistent, but it was fun when things worked the way I wanted ^^
Pretty cool, when I got into the swing of things it was very satisfying!
However, I feel like even some of the earlier levels were quite difficult, I almost never made par... But I'm not the best at games.
Good job! Please give my game a rating if you get the chance :D
Great Idea, really cute game and controls fell great! Nice job!
It's quite fun, but some levels are really challenging, as I'm having quite a bunch of trouble with the controls. I love the look of the dog, but the background and floor could maybe be more stylized.
I was really confused, because sometimes the level would just reset itself, until I figured out, that you die if the ball is on top of the dog. I think a simple "You died"-screen would help with this.
All in all, quite a fun game that is simple in its presentation, yet quite challenging gameplaywise
