I loved this, it was like the game was a simulation of my house. Except instead of food, my plate would have different types of laundry that my dog (Piper) likes to eat. Stuff like, paper towel, wash cloth, socks.
The dogs were cute and the so were the sound effects. The dogs were so great, I ended up just sharing the food with them, I couldn't resist. I liked that there was a run option but I found myself just running 100% of the time. Maybe put a limit on how long you can run so it can only be used in short bursts.
Note to self: Don't live in a house designed like a maze... my food will get cold before I find my table ;)
Fun game. Simple but executed well. I think you nailed a lot of the little details such as the animations. My favorite is when the dog crouches and then pounces. Not only does it look good, but it's a great play mechanic to give the player that last second chance to get out of harm's way. Also, your game's music is still ringing around in my head and that's by no means a bad thing. Nice job!
I feel sorry for the dog when we get to the table and we can hear him. Fun game. Maybe the run should be enabled by default.
I feel bad for the dog. He just wants some food. I wish both the run and walk was faster especially on some of the longer paths and the dog(s) were no where near me. Also, be nice to know where the dinning table is at with some sort of arrow or minimap. :D
nice and simple maze game, good job on this
what da dog doin? Cute idea and nice simple little game/
Nice little game, it could use a bit of polish but it was fun to play on the smaller levels, well done.
Neat little game. Great job on finishing this in just a few days! Any game with good boys in it is a good game. I just wish I got to pet them instead of running away.
I really appreciate that you had a simple idea and kept it simple. Clear design, clean execution. This is exactly what a jam game should be. Keep it straight-forward, learn something new, and make a game.
I think I would suggest removing the run button and just increasing move speed. There's no reason to not be running the whole time, right? And the levels could use a little more time in polish step. Some indicators as to where the table is or some direction would go a long way.
Again, congrats on your game. Keep it up!
Thanks! If I didn't have other life responsibilities, I could've done so much more! If you stay touching the doggo after he attacks you once, he won't attack anymore, so you can get really close and imagine you're petting him! lol.
I wanted to implement a stamina mechanic, but I didn't have the time 😕. I'm no level designer (obviously), but I tried to make it "difficult" to find the table, like a maze.
Thanks for playing!
