What the dog doing 😂

Very cute game and the gameplay loop is easy to learn, hard to master. My only suggestion would be to add animation to the dog because sometimes it looks like it is taxidermized :(

Thank you for the feedback! I actually did an animation, but it was not really great, so I removed at the end, but it's in my plans to put it back again.

Fun game! The idea is really cute, and the graphics are pretty nice. The gameplay could be a bit more refined, but it was still a pretty fun gameplay loop. Good job!

Also, maybe you could check out and rate my game? :)

Developer

I had already rated your game, just did not have commented, I really liked it. Also, about the gameplay of my game, it was soooo dificult to pull this out. It envolved so many physics logic, so I did my best with the three days, but my intention is to improve it after the game jam.

Cool idea but it's so hard

Developer

Thank you! And that game was intended to be hard, it was inspired in games like Pogostuck and Getting Over It, where the difficult controlls are part of the game's concept, so i guess it's normal that it doesn't please everyone. Still, if you take your time, it's possible that you will get used to the gameplay mechanics and you'll like it.

I absolutely loved the gameplay on this. Even though its very difficult, it feels like it can be mastered.

I played this for longer than any of the other jam games. And I loved the idea of being in a small area with some limitations, and trying to get as high of a combo as possible. Only thing is I wish you wouldn't lose combos when you touch a tree or a cloud. And it would only go away if you touch the ground wrong.

Anyways, super fun game! Good job! 

Here's a screenshot of when my tail got stuck in a cloud and it just looked like the dog was sitting on the cloud. Very cute!

(update: I finally got the highscore!! 4375)

Awn, thank you so much for the feedback.  About losing the combos, I didn't have much time to think about it, but I really liked your idea, I will test it and probably implement in the future, it seams more fair and logical for me, so thanks for the ideia. And about  the tail of the doggo stuck in the cloud, I did not have time to solve this, so I left the clouds far from the stage hahaha. Your comment made my day <3 Thank you so much.

i love the pixel art style for art, background well animated. another participant is using same technique to move the character. i think that  making the character move more easily will add gameplay.

Really really nice idea and concept but the controls were too hard to use.

Developer

Thanks for the compliment, and about the controlls, it was the Idea. The game was inspired in games like Pogostuck and Getting Over It, where the difficult controlls are part of the game's concept.

Man how do people get 2700 points on this game XD Really fun, weird and well made. The online leaderboard adds a lot of incentive to keep playing !

The name and the character are so cute - I love the concept. The music also goes well with the idea.
