I was very impressed with the polished look of it, the art and the music were quite good! The idea was also interesting, but I got the impression that I had very little power over the outcome. Maybe some more visual feedback for the player to get a better idea of how close/far the dogs are from being distracted would be helpful? Definitely potential in the game!

Forest DefendersThis was a really polished looking game! I agree that with more levels there could be a lot of potential for this project. It's impressive you managed to create all these assets in the time, great work.

Red & BlueA pretty short game, but incredibly polished and felt really nice to play. I always enjoy seeing a team jam entry where it really feels like the right people came together to deliver a cool idea!
If you do any post-jam expansions, I'd love to see how you flesh this out since it feels there's quite a bit there to have fun with if broken into a fun level format with varying goals or tasks given to the player by the dog's owners
Awesome job to you all!

Slimy TreasureThis is a crazy nice looking game! Love all the animations and the details. The controls are not very obvious, but I was able to improve my score over a few runs!
Thank you for the game!

Gottlob's Loneliest Birthdayunclear what to do. Do you just wait for the timer out or did I miss something? the use of dog treats was unclear since it always showed 0 in the bottom left but still, the sound plays of dog treats. did not see the point of this game. just not fun in general. And you combine this with an unclear goal
Hi, I'm sorry the game was not so clear on these aspects. The goal is to reach the park's exit before time runs out. You start the game with 1 dog treat, because it's a powerful tool to regain the dogs' attention (they start chasing after/following you). I hope that made it a little clearer and that you give it another shot :)
