I enjoyed the gameplay gimmick and thought the art style was cute. Fairly simple gameplay made it easy to pick up and figure out in a short time. The only real complaint was the delay in between pressing attack and when the attack actually occurred. It had a weird delay that made hitting enemies a little difficult at first until I got use to it. I played it here:

In hate there's friendshipStellar presentation and gameplay. Shows really good grasp of gameplay design. If it were to be expanded I'd like to see stuff like upgrades and levels.

Help! I'm Covered in Glue!Wow, this game is so cute, even mutants. I really like it overall. Music, SFX, graphic, control - very nice at all. My personal best is 23.

Spaced TogetherThe concept is really neat! I think the implementation made the gameplay a little more difficult and frustrating instead of challenging. Its very close to being an excellent game with some minor usability tweaks (like maybe allowing spacebar to always create a laser regardless of whether the puppy has a bubble around them?)

Space Scrap ShuffleVery cute art and music! Everything is really well executed, but I think there's a ton of stuff you could add in future updates too, like maybe new enemies or maps!

ThreadboundOh boy! This game was adorable, and beautiful, and LOTS of fun to play. I wish I had more life so I could kill those nasty big demons, but that's a minor quibble is a very, very cool game.

Me and My MonsterGreat visuals! Very smooth shapes and animations.
The gameplay was also quite interesting. The best strategy right now seems to be to spamclick all the buttons (LMB, RMB & Space), but with some tweaking, I could see some very intriguing combat emerging from the mechanics.
One easy QoL improvement is mouse trapping. I accidentally closed the game once by right-clicking the window frame and then clicking Close :D

Entangled SnakesCool concept and fun game. I like how you can zap multiple enemies by lining the dogs properly. The only issue I had was with the enemy that shoots bullets. You barely get time to react before the bullet hits you. That combined with the time it takes for the zap to cooldown makes the game a bit too hard later but if you were going for that then its great.

Cable GuysLove the aesthetic here. A fun game idea, but tricky for me to control, especially the recharge time for the laser felt too long. With some tightening up it's got potential though :)

Afternoon TeeThis was a really fun and super cute game! Loved the art style. The mechanics were simple but enjoyable once I got the hang of it. My high score was 42

Cobox Jam BuildThis is fantastic! Gameplay is great, I particularly like the challenge of lining up the dogs just right then repositioning the player character to get a large group of enemies to run directly into the zap attack before the dogs can move, it's really satisfying when you get it just right. Also love how much juice there is with the particles and lighting, and little details like the facial expression the dogs have when charging into place.
