Really creative concept that really brings back the memories from walking with my dog and depending on the time and where I go having a chance to meet people! Great job!

5/5 would get stuck on a mountain again

But seriously, impressive multiplayer experience. Ambitious game concept to make during a jam, but the team pulled it off. Excellent sound design and sound implementation too.
I had fun playing it with a few of the Discord people yesterday evening!

super nice and relaxing game. And damn, you got this working for multiplayer during the jam- that's cool.

Good barks!

Great game to play with the current curfew whilst not owning a dog! Loved the atmosphere. Great experience overall!

Great atmosphere! Didn't see any other people, but hey I was going outside while the curfew was in effect. 

I like the idea a lot! I'm curious how it feels with other players.

if you send the game link to some friends (or ping me in the discord) before booting it up next time, it really adds to the experience! especially when you have to find other people who already wandered off!

I'll give that a test!

A very pretty and chill walking simulator.  Also the dog was a great and necessary addition.

I no longer need a dog in real life, I just visit these woods ....

Wow! this game is really calming and looks amazing , didnt find any other people yet but I will continue looking :)

If you tag me in the GGJ discord when you're online (or anybody else for that matter) I'll pop in the game too if I can :D
