How does your game fit the theme?
In my game you are joined together with your dog (posing as your father) to complete a 3-legged race. You have the control but your dog has other intentions. He will chase after bees, but also dash towards bones you throw. While it might be difficult, use his distraction to your advantage!

This is really cool! Love the premise and the visuals especially. As with one of the other comments below, some kind of visual indicator as to when you can use the bone again would be great - but this is a minor complaint and I appreciate that time is tight in a 48 hr jam. Nice work!

Nice beat and art!

Love the dog! Would love to see more of it :D

Super cool if you could rate our game :D

Doggie!! Yay! Very cute! I love happy games and I love the whimsy in this one! Wonderful job!

Cute dog, interesting theme too

I did enjoy this, and now I want icecream :D Pro tip, you can yeet a bone at a bee and immediately eliminate it.

The bone speed boost is a bit jerky, and the camera is dangerously close, but I did have fun, and the doggo is adorable.

Haha it was fun game! My dog always run out of control haha! Great concept and challanging gameplay made by you guys! :D

Fun and adorable game

Hilarious idea :)

Very funny concept, nice artwork and I love your justification for the "loss of control". It can be a bit frustrating though. As others I went for the click spamming technique :P

Submitted

Instructions unclear, was adopted by dog.

OMG X D This is so charming and cute o-O The idea is something new, that distracted dog, I identify with him! XD I would add some indicator when you can use bone again and maybe few movement tweaks for feeling, but it has potential :D 

Submitted

Finally I can have ice cream. :D
