Oh nooo what a sad intro! And then what a spooooky game!

I like the idea of the ghost dog only being able to walk in the kid's light. I think there's a lot of potential here. The atmosphere is really spooky and fitting!

Congrats on submitting!

I find that the jumping is really hard to time, I couldn't get far at all in the game, the concepts look interesting though! The intro and main menu are really well done

Thank you for your feedback! :3 yeah.. sometimes the jumping parts are a bit tricky...

The intro was heartbreaking and I didn't like it! Poor doggo :cccc (But gamewise it was a really cool idea. And you caught the scary vibe super well)

Developer(+1)

Thank you so much for your feedback, Camaika! ^-^ Yes, the intro is pretty sad ^^’ But the child and his doggo can meet as much as they want in his dreams :3 I hope this cheers you up a bit... ^^’

Interesting idea and nice work on the cut-scenes and art.

Just a heads up i would remove the link to a separate version cause that's against the rules and can get you disqualified.

Developer(+1)

Thank you so much! <3 And thank you for telling us that the link could be against the rules.  We didn't know that. We removed it immediately!

Nice looking game with a deep background story. I like the idea of toggling between the dog and the kids, good game!

Oh, thank you so much! ^-^ <3
