This game made my day, I couldn't stop laughing internally. It's original and fun. Can you make a whole series with different scenarios and pets? I would definitely buy it.
Oh, thank you, I'm glad you enjoyed it! I like the idea of fun/silly games and I will probably make some more, most likely for another game jams :) Thanks again, and in turn your comment made my day!
Yay! :)
This was really well crafted and innovative! It made me smile because it's cute and silly at the same time haha. Congrats!
Thank you so much! I loved Turbulence too, it is one of my favorites in the jam :)
nice and sweet game.
Thank you, I'm glad you liked it!
This was a very cute experience and I love the little world that's been created. Gameplay was unique and fun; it's rare you get the opportunity to play as a dog in games. Great work!
Thank you so much! I'm glad you enjoyed it and thanks for the kind words, it really means a lot :)
This game is so fun! It's really satisfying to rob the human of it's meat. It took me some attempts to understand that I had to go chewing the meat as I run, so I found it confusing at the start, but it's really nice. I like that the human says "good one" when he catches you after you succeed instead of being angry, like he knows this is a game for the dog and congratulates him... (Wait!... Oh shit, he knows...)
Thank you, I'm so happy you enjoyed it and your belly is now full :) Yes, the Human seems to be really nice or... might be onto something? Uh-oh.
I love the idea for this game, it's cute. The game looks great and playing it is quite fun.
Thank you, I'm glad you liked it!
This was cute and fun, it took me a few attempts to figure out to run right instead of left but it was worth it. The animations and the intro are nice and I thought the grab timing mini-game was clever. One thing I noticed is that the scrolling is so smooth that it’s probably sub-pixel scrolling, not sticking to the 84x48 grid right? Anyway, all round a pleasant game to play, well done! Also, it was clever that the dog had a white outline to make it stand out nice and clearly against the busy background!
Thanks, I'm glad you liked it and you took the time to make a successful runaway :)
Yes, the scrolling and the object positions are not rounded but it is rendered to the 84x48 pixel resolution so this leads to some jerky motion, unfortunately. I tried to implement a better approach but I could not fit it in the time limit.
I had fun playing it! I was able to eat all of the meat just once, but felt such a sense of accomplishment in doing it. I think I can understand my mother’s dog a little better now, that little devil is always snatching food from the table. :D
I'm glad you liked it! :) Yeah, these little devils are little hungry devils :D
Very fun and funny game. It really entertained me!
Haha very cute little game! :)
I really enjoyed it! (the steak)
Thanks, I'm glad you enjoyed
itboth! :)Very nice idea. Your game is very nice. The graphics has some nice touches (the ears of the dog are very cute). I like the humor and everything is very curated.
I agree with YS that probably the guy is a little bit too fast and too good at catching the dog.
Adding more elements to interact with would make this game even funnier. Great work!
Thank you so much :) I agree, I should have added more interactive items
Did you aim to the middle in "minigame"? That should slow him down a lot! Also, you can run outside the house and jump on the roof of it as well, it should buy you some time.
I've tried the game again and I was able to eat all the meat with your suggestion. I think that all the action that happens in the moment where you grab the meat and start to run makes it easy to miss the arrow. Perhaps you could introduce that mechanic before some way so that the player already knows that he should pay attention to the arrow.
On a sidenote: somehow I managed to jump over the wall on the right and fall out of the level (that made quite easy to eat the meat :D).
Hmm, you're right, the game is packed a bit now and things can get fast pretty soon. I could not come up with a better approach or explanation/tutorial in time.
Haha, a full belly is a full belly! (I did not know that was possible, I have to reproduce it now. Thanks for reporting it!)
Really cool one. But damn the guy is fast!
Thanks! :) Try to snatch the food when he's not looking. And also if snatched when the arrow is in the middle of the bar on top you will gain some extra time.
