Cool shooter game! A little difficult, but ok. I wish I could skip the dialogue though.
Nice little space shooter! The intro and the story are cool, and the mechanics are solid. I didn't like the smooth movement as much, but it added difficulty to the game so maybe it's good to keep it. One thing I would've loved is an option to skip dialogue, at least after your first run. Solid effort!
Hey, Thank you for your feedback! I actually made an option to skip dialogue, just press esc and uncheck the tutorial. When you skip home, you can press space too to skip the first dialogues on tv screen.
Oh, it's a little obfuscated then. Some small text at the side saying "space to skip" would fix that!
I loved the engaging fast paced story ❤ although having Laika tell me how to do everything while i was locked in place, didn't feel like it fit the game. great idea tho!
Really loved this game! Switching between dimensions felt so nice and looks very polished! Great job
Thank you for your feedback! ❤️
Very fun and challenging game! I think if you added a brief delay in damage after you get hit, it would dramatically cut the difficulty level. Good job!
Wow, Nice feedback! Thank you so much. I definitely need to improve my level design, this tip is really good. ❤️
wow, what a fun game to play that's a great switching mechanic you implemented D. I like the game visuals great ob D. Would you mind trying out my game and rating it according :).
Thank you for your feedback. 'll try your game for sure 😊
Fun game, liked the switch mechanic.
Although I really liked the story it would be nice to be able to skip the dialog, not sure I want to sit through it every time if I wanted to play again.
Hey Squally! Thank you for your feedback! You actually can skip the dialog. Just press 'esc' and uncheck the tutorial toggle. During the first scene (the television scene) you can press Space to skip the dialogues, and if you die, you can just return directly to space without any dialogue.
Please make sure emily gets pets
Thank you for playing. Emily and Nico receive lots of love!
I loved the dialog between the dogs, and the old school shmup action. Unfortunately, I'm a terrible pilot.
Thank you for your feedback! Hey, you aren't a terrible pilot! I made the level design flawly. But soon i'll post a post-jam version that is a little easier.
Who can't like dogs in space? It gets 4 paws of excellence from me.
Thank you ! ❤️
Very cool game! I found the dogs very cute, too. I would have liked to save Laika aswell...
Personally I found the game very challenging, since you have no invincibility frames and no feedback regarding the cooldown to switch dimensions, but playing the game was very fun!
Thank you for your feedback... yeah, i'm sorry about the lack of feedbacks and the difficulty of the game, had no time to solve that : (
There's no rule that says a dog can't pilot a starfighter.
Pretty fun! Always had a soft spot for the story of Laika. Glad to see him get sweet revenge at last on those lousy humans.
Haha, thank you so much for your feedback : )
"What a beautiful day to be a dog" - I love the story and dialog!
Thank you so much ❤️
Fun idea great little dialogues. I enjoyed the game and most importantly cute doggos
Thank you for your feedback! Except for Laika, they are my dogs in real life.
Dogs un the space its crazy idea, I love it, the gameplay is very nice, thanks for developing this work of art
Thank you for your feedback ❤️
Funny idea with the dogs in space! Makes me think of the animals in Star fox and gives the shooter a good context/narrative.
Thank you for your feedback ❤️
