The concept is really cool and well implemented!

Dog! Good dog. Good name. Good use of theme.
The controls are really unintuitive though. Does the game restart when the ball falls on the dog? Or is something else happening. I'm not sure what I'm doing. I got to level 3 and couldn't figure out how or why I passed level 2.

SlimeboundPretty pixel art!
There is a problem with stucking in walls, but after polish it will be a good mobile game, I think :)

Hell HeavenireI really enjoyed the main mechanic, despite it getting a bit buggy sometimes, there is definitely charm to this game and more to be expanded on if you wanted to keep it going post-jam!
I feel the time slow down is quite necessary to surviving a few of the puzzles, but perhaps it's a bit too slow. It was easy to cheese some levels by just maintaining a click as often as possible. I'm sure there's a nice balance in there that could let you really excel with slightly altered level designs!
Fun game though, good job!

C.O.M.P.R.E.S.S.I.O.N.That's a fun twist! I like the lazy dog haha. Really a fun game. You should definitely polish this up and release it on mobile!

Mutual DestructionCool game! Funny twist that you move the ball instead of the dog. Great amount of levels for a jam game. The first levels where pretty hard though. Keep it up!

String MaceCute game! I really like the art. Ball felt a bit incosistent, but it was fun when things worked the way I wanted ^^

The Meek-MooksPretty cool, when I got into the swing of things it was very satisfying!
However, I feel like even some of the earlier levels were quite difficult, I almost never made par... But I'm not the best at games.
Good job! Please give my game a rating if you get the chance :D

Bee TogetherIt's quite fun, but some levels are really challenging, as I'm having quite a bunch of trouble with the controls. I love the look of the dog, but the background and floor could maybe be more stylized.
I was really confused, because sometimes the level would just reset itself, until I figured out, that you die if the ball is on top of the dog. I think a simple "You died"-screen would help with this.
All in all, quite a fun game that is simple in its presentation, yet quite challenging gameplaywise
