I love the creative aspect of the game. I would wish for some more interaction but the art is 10/10. So cute uwu
Thank you ! Yeah I wanted to do some more, but with the time limit and my time schedule, it was a little complicated to add more (especially the research about interesting events in France's History.

So cute! Entertaining dog choices. Good to see that dogs didn't really change over the centuries 😅
Thank you ! Yeah dogs have always been good boys !
Nice Game! It's definitely an interesting take on the theme and I like that you're able to make changes to history, even as a dog. The game had a fair balance of history and gameplay, so overall it's a great job!
Thank you ! Yeah, I though it was more fun to take the view of a dog instead of a human, because he doesn't know everything about the human world ;)
the art of your game is so cute, and this system of choices made me play the game more than once.
Thank you ! I'm happy you liked it :D
I like dogs, I like game
Thank you !
This game is so cute, I can't handle the doggo! The story is great, you made an amaaaazing job with the narrative and the use of art, congrats!
Thank you so much ! I'm really glad you liked it !
Overall simple and consistent. Very well done. Minor bug noticed was when holding the arrow key down during the event of when the text is being read, on text reading is completed (while still holding down the arrow keys) the dog beings to walk backwards.
Thanks ! Yeah I'm aware of that, I wasn't able to fix it (I'm not really good at programming)
Understandable I was in that position when I first began to make games. When starting to learn to program it is really helpful to learn about Boolean Algebra and Computer Logic to then be able understand what and why you are programming
Yeah, but to be honest, programming is not my favorite thing, I'm more into narrative, art and game design. I'm currenty in a game design school.
Oh I see that is also understandable. Just basic programming knowledge will improve the rate at which you create your future projects.
even though it should not be there, I really liked it, it looked like a dog doing a moonwalk.
XD thanks ! Maybe Filou will be Michael Jackson in another life :o
Very cute and funny game ^^ Here's the VOD: https://www.twitch.tv/videos/1259192519
Thanks ! Your stream was great btw !
Very adorable game! Really enjoyed the whole concept, the music, the art and the theme was all on point. really hope to see more games from you! :3
Aw that's so sweet ! Thank you so much ! <3
It's such a lovely idea to play as Louis XIV's puppy! The dialogues are vivid. I wish I could have more clues for decision-making but it is still fun to explore the history of France in this way. The control is not very intuitive for me since both the arrow keys and mouse are on my right side. I'm not sure why but I once saw the puppy walking backwards.
Thank you ! For the clues, it's because I wanted to put the player with a dog's vision, so you don't really know what your actions can do. But in the same time, as a human player, you have some idea (for example with the "War table", you see some wooden soldier, you can imagine it will change the plans, but you don't know how exactly.
For the controls, yeah I know, as I say to someone, I wanted to do WASD, but my keyboard is in ZQSD, so I decided for anyone who have AZERTY's keyboard to put the arrows, I could have done both didn't think about it.
Oh for the walking backwards, I think it might be a bug.
Thank you so much for your feedback !
Very interesting idea executed pretty well! The detail in the art, music and sound effects are great! My only suggestion would be to implement proper keyboard control, like interact with space key. Having to use mouse and arrow key at the same time feels a bit strange. Other than that, great job!
Thanks you and thanks for the feedback ! Yeah it could have been better. At first, I wanted to do WASD keys, but as I'm french, my keyboard is in AZERTY, not QWERY, so it would have been ZQSD which is not the best for QWERTY's users.
What a very cute game! I really love the dog!
Thanks ! Yeah he's such a good boy !
Very charming game. The music was great and the gameplay was simple, but fun, and the lighthearted tone goes well with the art style and music. I can also see this being expanded into a larger project that would be really fun to play. ("It's a lovely day in Versailles and you are Louis XIV's favorite dog...")
Thank you so much ! Really glad you liked it !
The game is very charming. I teach English online and showed a bunch of kids the game, without exception they loved it(Even the older 13-17 crowd), and i get to basically do nothing for 5-10 minutes per student.
Literally made my job easier 10/10
Oh thank you so much ! So happy to hear that !
Really fun and cute game!
thanks a lot !
Very cute. Glad you added restart button for scenes - very smart.
Thanks, yeah I added it in case people encounter bugs
Really funny game, doggo is cute as hell. I got stuck a couple of times but thanks to the Restart Scene button I was able to finish it. Nothing to envy to telltale, great game!
Thanks that's so sweet <3 ! Yeah usually you got stuck when you click a lot (that's what I experiment when tracking bugs), and I didn't managed to find why it does that.
That was a fun run through. The dog has character and it's a funny way to illustrate the history around the Sun King Loius X1V.
Great graphics - loved the picture of the King with his dog at the start LOL.
Thanks ! The picture of the king was the most difficult thing to draw because I had to create an existant painting (I just added the dog).
The original painting is here if you want to check : https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Portrait_of_Louis_XIV
I'm glad you liked it <3 !
lovely to play and very cool music, you guys did better in terms of gameplay than our game and we can take some notes from your game.
Thank you very much ! Actually, I was alone making it xD
Your game is cool, I played it and liked it !
