How does your game fit the theme?

I like it! It was fun to wreck havoc on the area with the owner. The controls were pretty sensitive, but it was funny to see them spin really fast and obliterate a car.

Really funny game. Good gimmick. Would be cool to see on a bigger map with more obstacle variety, or if the owner reacted more to the danger you put them in. Great graphical design too!

Developer

Thanks so much for playing glad you had fun with our silly game ʕ•ᴥ•ʔ ♡ thank you for the feedback we do plan to expand on the game post-jam!

A really silly game with equally silly art! The controls are super sensitive but it matched the chaos of the game, it was fun to try to crash into everything in sight. My only suggestion would be to make the owner's physics to be more loose to crash into things more, it sometimes felt the owner was following my exact path.

Developer

Thanks so much for checking out our silly game ʕ•ᴥ•ʔ ♡ Glad you had fun with all our chaos, we will ty to work on improving the controls a bit post-jam! Thank you for your feedback it helps a lot!

Very cute graphics and fun gameplay, the music is very funny and catchy great choice, the SFX are satisfying and fun. Great game loop, the first time playing my camera got stuck inside the buildings on the left somehow, but I replayed and got this score (I hope this is considered good lol)

The controls were a bit hard to deal with, but overall I think it was a pretty good fit for the theme. After figuring out I could whip around the wheelchair I had a lot more fun.

Developer

Man, i love dogs.

Also very cool game! The objective is a little confusing at the start

Developer(+1)

I love dogs too!

Thanks for trying out our game,

I wish we had spent more time on the player onboarding with some form of in-game information or tutorial but we were pretty rushed for the deadline.

This is amazing! I feel like the controls are a bit too sensible, but still it made me laugh

Developer(+1)

Thanks for checking out our game, sorry for the control issues we will get them fixed post-jam! ʕ•ᴥ•ʔ ♡

Oh my god, it's the exact same idea as our GMTK2021 game, Long Leash ^^'

You took a more hectic approach than us however, the gameplay is totally janky but that's what makes it hilarious. I love especially the animation of the dog ! I'm not sure about the point system though, it did not feel like it really correlated with the havoc I was wrecking. But I don't feel like it was actually important.

Developer

Thanks so much for checking the game out :] I just played through some levels of Long Leash and the art-direction is perfect, I love the paper-craft aesthetics and the dog is super cute!

All of your projects look amazing!

We are planning to do some updates to Borzoink post-jam so your feedback is really helpful thank you :]!

987! This is probably the silliest thing I have ever seen and I adore it. The gameplay and physics are so funny it nearly put me in the wheelchair guys position 💀
Well done! Fantastic entry.

it's a pity that there is no competitive component, the idea is very interesting

Developer

Thanks so much for checking out our silly game ʕ•ᴥ•ʔ ♡ You’re right that the game lacks some gameplay depth beyond just setting your own high-score and that was my fault I wasn’t very ambitious with the complexity of the game to avoid bugs and we didn’t expect to have such a huge audience! but we will make up for this with post-jam updates to make the game much more engaging to play so thank you for your feedback :]

Had fun running around and making poor guy hit stuff, a break effect would be pretty cool on the objects and a larger map with actually moving traffic and people, etc. :D Really impressed by the quality considering it was made during the jam!

Developer(+1)

Thanks so much for checking out our silly game, A break effect is a great idea we have already started to implement such features for the post-jam update! moving traffic and people are also really good ideas but we couldn’t fit them in for the 48hour scope!

Thanks for your kind words ʕ•ᴥ•ʔ ♡

Nice art and music choice, I especially love the human character model. Poor guy.

I think the leash might be too short, since I basically had to hit an object with the dog in order to swing poor human into it properly.

Developer(+1)

Thanks so much for playing our silly game, glad you liked it!

Sorry about the controls your feedback is super useful and we will look into improving that post-jam!
