That was fun! I liked the stairs and the moment when you break the wall at the end, very funny

Funny little game and although simple there were some cool little moments, the stairs felt nice (strange I know but it was a cool little visual moment) and the way the wall just flew away was great in 2D. I know many have mentioned it already but it would look a lot better if the dog didn't have a background. Other than that fun little entry :)

This is a really fun idea and I see potential for the bark mechanic.  Although, I'm not really a fan of some of the artistic choices you made.  Keeping the background color on the dog sprite and using the same color for background walls and foreground objects are both weird choices.  That being said the game still looked good overall.

Charming little game about a dog who just wants to be king. I love the part where he just knocks the king over without a care in the world! I don't know if this is deliberate to make the game more endearing, but maybe remove the background from the player sprite so that he doesn't have a big outline. Well done though!

This is a really good submission! I like the nice little story, but your use of the visual assets was really good. This game is really polished.

Super cute game that has Super Metroid moment when you have to bark to get of the throne room! Love when games end where they start too :)

Thanks for playing!

It's a fun and cute game. I love the story and the barking mechanic, I would love to play a longer version with dog going around destroying buildings and scaring people by barking :D

Great job!

This game is fantastic

I hate the developer cause it only lasts like a minute or so.

Please make more.

And sent it to me

Very polished, I enjoyed the cute story! The dog barking mechanic was surprisingly fun, it makes me want to play a feature length game where interacting with people is all done with barks!
I had a great time with the game, awesome work!

Nice little story. If I were a dog, I would want to be king too. The dog-king-fantasy I never knew I had has been lived out.

Very charming.

A super well polished game, and a cute map for the dog \>_</. I only wished for a windows download, since the game was super laggy and jittery to play. So in terms of engagement, I could only give 2 stars sorry. The other categories, I gave 4 stars each to compensate, well done!

Developer

I added a windows desktop export. Thanks for the feedback!

The game works a ton better on the executable! I think I'll bump up the ratings for engagement!
