Streamed this game tonight

What can be said. This is the pinnacle of gamejams

Unique idea, cute graphics, great sound, balanced gameplay that starts easy enough then ramps up in difficulty. I almost swallowed a filling gritting my teeth trying to get through this one, what an adventure!

For some games, I write long paragraphs, but for this one, I'll just leave it at that and call this one a Perfect 5 Star, put this on the Nintendo Switch.

Super polished and consistent, everything fits together nicely with the understated color palette and audio choices. I kept being confused by the controls when back flip and jump would swap according to direction but that could just be me. Apart from that it was a very enjoyable experience in a tightly put together package, great job!

This game is one of the most creative I saw, it was just so unique and interesting to control, the challenges were hard but cool enough to keep me interested, and everything else worked great to compliment it.

This game is absolutely incredible, super polished and unique. I love how it doesn't punish you for experimenting with the movements. Fantastic!

I barely managed to beat the game. It ramped up in difficulty near the end haha. Very cute, neat game. I don't know if I've ever played a game quite like this. It was like a puzzle jumper but in real time. Cool game.

Managed to beat the game! Very challenging and frustrating ( in a good way!). The last two levels put my brain into over-drive. I enjoyed it! Very polished and solid. Reminds me alot of Warioland/Pizzatower with puzzler mechanics.

My favourite so far, feels very polished. And I always appreciate a good pun in a game title)

So this game is a platformer where the dog automoves in one direction and the only way you can change trajectory is for the samurai dog to bump into a wall/platform. The way you integrate the dog to jump and maneuver your way through the game is unique and interesting. The complexity of making sure you got the controls right is very attuned and for what its worth, its definitely quite well presented.

Admittedly during the last scene I was struggling so hard on parts where you have to time your jumps just right and input the arrow buttons in the right order in order to jump on the platform, which honestly took me 10 minutes to just get right. I wasn't able to get all the dog bones since some of them are on places where you really need to flex your skills to do. I don't know if the increased difficulty is intentional design or not. But it kinda loses my fun interest a lot when I was kinda pleased with the first 3 acts since the difficulty there wasn't as brutal as the final act.

Presentation wise, the spritework aesthetics are really well done and everything seems cohesive. The designs looks sleek and nothing felt too out of place. I am quite pleased with my performance at least, even if its kinda poor for me.

This is a relatively good entry to play on, its not for me but its definitely a polished jam entry. Well done.

Great game! Really interesting concept and good level design. I love the dog, would 100% watch the movie. Took me way to long to get the hang of the controls but eventually managed to finish the game.

Wow, great art design, sound and overall style. The Level progression was good and I enjoyed figuring out how to approach the bone challenges. There was one part on the final stage that just did me in and couldn't get past!

Great game! Good visuals, gameplay and music. Interesting levels. Found a couple places where you can get stuck, and you can't restart the level, but for that amount of time it's a very good game.

Hi! Thanks for playing!

You can actually restart the level, it's the R key on keyboard or the Select button on gamepad. It wasn't mentioned in-game because you were not supposed to get stuck (haha sorry)
