The light mechanics weren't clear to me, and I wasn't sure if the short dog had something special over the taller one. I do like the idea though!

Great puzzles, and cute art style! Would have been great with a little feedback about which dog I am currently controlling

That is a really good point, I had meant to put an icon next to the "Courage meter" that corresponded to each dog but I ended up running out of time while trying to get the UI layer to show up in the correct order. We appreciate the feedback!

I just finished this game, really great concept, with nice levels too!

Interesting puzzles! would love to see the dogs have some more unique mechanics but I do really like the "bravery system you added for how far the dogs can go in the light.

Nice game. The puzzles were interesting. This game had unique hook compared to other games that had two characters joined by a rope. But I would have loved to see more interactions with the dogs(like one could use the other as a platform). And the camera could show more of  what is ahead of the dog. 

But overall, this is a very good game for a game jam. I loved it. Nice work

I think it might be cool if the skinny dog could stand on the other dog's back, so he can jump to harder to reach places. Could help add some more twists to puzzles.

Nice job- I love the dog theme!  This was really well done and the puzzles were clever- I liked that the dogs had slightly different abilities too!

I think the restriction you put on the two dogs' distance was unique and a fun spin on the theme, but I would suggest maybe working on the sound effects department, the sounds/music was a bit stuttery for me and didn't really fit in well. Other than that, I think you guys did great!

The camera could use some improvements. Sometimes it's hard to see when the dogs are far apart.

Other than that I don't see any major problems.

Very cute! Liked the overall concept, fits the theme well, would be even better with more levels + animation
