The game is very visually appealing and I especially love the reflection and water ripple effects. It's short and simple but sweet. The little GIFS in the tutorial scene were also helpful to clear up the mechanics. Good job!

Very interesting idea, quite a melancholic direction. But it lacked depth (in the mechanics sense), the ghouls didn't really pose a threat and most of my time was waiting after I threw my bone for the dog to bring it back. The game was also pretty much over once I caught three of them as no more ghouls were appearing. I like the idea but think the game would be better with some more intuitive and quicker controls of directing the dog by throwing the bone. But I liked the art, keep working at it!

Really cool concept! Would recommend making the direction that the bone is being thrown in, clearer though

Big fan of the art style! The concept is interesting too, would love to see the gameplay polished a bit, think it could lead to something interesting!

the art is endearing, very cute doggo, just not super intuitive to play; i threw the bone by accident twice straight down into the lake, then it stopped me throwing again cuz the bone got stuck below my hand :( it was a good concept in terms of a way to show off your drawing skills though!!

Agree with others - Art style was epic but I had no idea how to play

The art style is cool, but idk how to throw the bone. Adding the controls in the description or in a comment could help!
