Hi! I played your game on stream a few days ago! If you weren't there to watch and want to see my thoughts, check out the archived video (timestamps are in description):

Hi, sorry for not rating your game earlier.
I managed to run this game using v1.3 by launching the main.py file (the exe version doesn't work). I like how you use the theme 'getting chased' to make something cute. Despite that, it's still a halloween game : the dog is cut in half. I wished the typing patterns were longer (like instead of smashing aeaeae then zrzrzrzr you had to type whole words) but it was still satisfying to play nonetheless ! Great job Franco

Typing a whole word and long patterns is a great idea! I should make it if I update the game

Thank you for playing!

Cool! The functionality of the game is great, there is a menu, a win screen, and even a loading screen. I think you could improve the art, maybe by keeping the same image resolution. I was able to catch the tail馃槑 Good work!

Developer(+1)

Thank you!

I thought the images had all the same resolution (because if a button had 256x300 pixels in screen, it had 128x150 pixels in the editor, and tried to do same with every image), but I鈥檒l check it and improve the art in general, I could add levels even.

I鈥檓 very happy it finally worked.

For the version 1.2

in sources\escenas.py change the line  

path = "/assets/"

to

path = "assets/"

and I got it to run

Developer

Thank you very much, I will try to change it.

Thank you for trying to play it!
I added the files that didn't work with their versions and descriptions in their names.

Can you tell me if the version 1.2 works?

Submitted

As GeorgeSpruyt said, I can't play it. exe gives the same error, and I think you forgot to include your `main.py` file in the source

Submitted
