This is a really fun game! I The character art is great. There's a sweet satisfaction in taking down that dog from Duck Hunt haha. I love being able to stealthily take enemies out, so it made me wish there were upgrades for it (also made me wish the nights were longer in the latter levels!). There's not much else that others haven't already mentionned. I think I rolled into random spots a few times because I couldn't get used to the rolling following the mouse, and sometimes the dogs would stop doing their walking animation and move backwards? Nothing very major. It's a perfect take on the theme. The engaging game mechanics, the nice character art, and the fitting audio all make this a very solid game! Well done!

Thanks for playing therryaki!
You're absolutely right; having takedown upgrades would indeed be cool (e.g. more health regen from takedowns, or faster takedown ticks intervals).
You'll be happy to know that we've tweaked the roll mechanics to roll in the direction last moved (and only to the mouse location if player is stationery!). Will be patched post-rating! The animation problems you noticed should be fixed too!
Our artist @junkgolem and musician @Scratchy_sd would be very happy to hear your high praises for their craft! Thank you!
