Really charming visuals! I liked being the dog and chomping on dumb humans haha. I think you can build on it for the future by adding a variety of different humans! Really good first entry

Amazing first GWJ entry! The sprites are so cute! 

my son (5) says it would be fun if the dog could get a booster (rocket) pack and fly around catching people

3900 points! Congrats on your first GWJ. I liked the art and music (although the music was really loud). It was fun running around. :)

Yeah a lot of people are finding that. Seemed to work perfectly on my computer. I guess I've instanced wayyyyy to many of those people at once, should've spawned them over time lol

Nice! I loved the graphics and the background music. The dash was a bit too uncontrolled in my opinion, but I had fun.٩(◕‿◕。)۶
