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!

Well that's just darn cute! A pleasant, unique racing game, and I really love the artwork. Congrats!
Nice dog racing game :-) Our doggy also like to eat bees, she knows their sting is dangerous, but she just can't resist... The only suggestion I have: Showing the bone cooldown somewhere would make it easier to time things. Overall: Well done! Maybe you want to give our game also a test&rating - no doggies there, but a cute little bouncy jelly ball...
There's a corgi in this? Say no more!
Really nice presentation and a cool idea. I think maybe a cool down indicator on the bone throw would be good as I found myself spam clicking lmb
Cute game, but a bit too easy (at least the first two levels).
Really nice game, I had a lot of fun with the mechanic and liked how the difficulty ramped. The artwork was really nice too. Overall really intuitive. Think some things to vary up the levels would be good - powerups, moving segments, different stimulus/response elements for the dog.
Great work; good luck!
I liked how this was almost more about pathing than the race itself. Also the dog sprite rules.
Really cute theme! A visible cooldown timer for the bone throw would probably be a good addition.
super cute art! nice work!
Not gonna lie I think I didn't understand the game properly, there's a cooldown for the dog bone throwing?
Super cute art and sound! 🐶 🐶 🐶
Super cute game, great pixel art!
Hey mate. I have some feedback.
Firstly, I wish I'd be able to know when the bone is ready.
Secondly, the music is really nice, but having SFXs for walking and throwing the bone would be great.
Don't have much to say, really, so here is the win-screen:
That was great. The mechanics feel pretty good and the art-style is lovely. I also like the sound effects. The art is so cute, not just the main characters but also the opponents.
Congrats on submitting!
This is really fun, the only thing I would have liked it to know when my bone was ready.
The game's mechanics are fairly straightforward! Bees probably had too large of an attraction range and I wish I could do more to escape them than throw the bone. Besides that, the game looks good!
Y'know, a race between a man who's riding a dog, versus a team of conjoined twins, was the most unexpected thing I'd ever imagine for this jam, props for you! Cute art as well!
Just wished there was some sort of indication of the bone throwing cooldown, so I could know when to throw it again.
Great job nevertheless!
This one makes me quite happy. It is so joyful!
This is a really fun and cute game! Love the mustache~
This is a fun game and I really like the up-beat music. I wish the dog wasn't so enticed by those dang bees haha
haha love the concept! Music is nice and I figured out how to play without needing to read controls so get another + from me :D
