Such people. Very sound. Much like. Wow.

Simple yet pretty challenging game, especially on hard difficulty!

xrxr 2014-04-29 02:28

This made me smile the first time I saw it :)

Got done to 18 left before I died! Fun game, shooting bubbles was a bit confusing.

thenmal 2014-04-29 05:14

10 left Very close. Fun game. Much wow.

kirbytails7 2014-04-29 05:16

Wow, such theme. Much fun. Very audio.

crowbeak 2014-04-29 07:15

Hard to control, but in a good way. I enjoyed this.

perfect-victim 2014-04-29 19:49

instant happiness !

Fun game, the way the player moves the character worked very well except when going above the water where it seemed to falter a bit. All in all excellent entry!

someone 2014-04-29 19:53

Nice game. Didn't figure out shooting bubbles though.

namuol 2014-04-29 20:07

Very fun. You nailed the controls! Would've been more fun if there was a larger area to swim around in!

iamspencer 2014-04-29 21:21

such hard, but much fun, wow
Good job :)

rojo 2014-04-29 23:31

So rescue. Very find. Wow.

I liked the art / animations on the little dudes.

hyoga-3d 2014-04-30 03:43

It's very fun to play! Nice and balanced gameplay, with a great pixel art. Great job!

daanvanyperen 2014-04-30 20:14

Aside of the title being a bit too early (tisk), the main game mechanic is fun.

trueyomic 2014-05-02 18:28

Much difficult. Good challenge. Wow. Such theme. Many music.

gagapete 2014-05-02 21:44

Nice take on the theme, it is pretty fun to be a dogefin.

klianc09 2014-05-03 09:04

The first time when it said "press Z to shoot bubbles" caught me by surprise and I subsequently let someone drown. It would be nice to tell beforehand that the Z key is needed in some way.

Other than that: wow, such swimming, much fun, so music.

td1801 2014-05-03 09:33

A cool mini game, however Bubbles are more annoying than useful..

giordanno92 2014-05-03 10:34

What an awesome little game! Such jokes, much comic sans, wow. Great solid fun entry to play, getting Echo to become Doge is an awesome idea. It took me only one failure to understand the mechanics and two more plays to finish the game on normal. Solid controls, nice graphics, nice dificulty range, great music and sound effects, wow. One of the nicest entries I've ever seen

strd6 2014-05-03 15:09

Pretty fun! Such doge.

thingostudios 2014-05-03 15:32

I was all set to dismiss this game as meme-y garbage, but then I realized that it's actually really fun and well made. Controls are simple and fairly intuitive. I wish you could right click to shoot bubbles so that the entire game could be mouse controlled.

Also, I think it's possible for you to lose because the plane is out of air, even when all the passengers have been rescued. Not 100% sure though.

arcturusdeluxe 2014-05-03 20:15

Cool game! Solid gameplay, and decent graphics and music. I think the 'doge' thing is a bit overplayed in general, but whatever floats your boat. Still though, fun stuff!

eerongal 2014-05-04 20:11

Wow. Such game. Much appreciate.

acuity 2014-05-04 20:23

Simple, but pretty fun. Nice sfx and music, too!

ddrkirbyisq 2014-05-04 21:30

very bubbles.

ithildin 2014-05-05 07:21

I thought this would just be a random use of the meme, but the mechanic is pretty fun on its own and I must admit that I have a soft spot for doge-based memes, so...
Such dlophin. Wow. Much fun ;)

yword 2014-05-05 13:21

Very funny! It is fun to play and quite addictive. Well done!

pitoum 2014-05-05 15:38

A bit rough but still pretty funny! :D

recursor 2014-05-05 23:55

lol. This was both funny and fun. Nice work :)

actionremix 2014-05-08 00:51

Wow

scam 2014-05-08 20:05

Funny concept.

voider 2014-05-08 20:15

cool game, dogefin. Apple hates doge. We love doge.

ilo 2014-05-08 20:16

Didn't know how to shoot, but the premise is funny and the dogefin controls well.

fritzendugan 2014-05-09 07:57

Love that you included the apple rejection notice haha

Controls felt a little wonky, but I guess that's part of the challenge is learning how to effectively control him. Mechanics felt pretty solid for the most part other than that. Game was pretty hard, but that's not necessarily a bad thing.

I was confused about the plane itself losing oxygen. Am i supposed to take the O2 to the plane, or use it to put a bubble around survivors, or both? It was a little confusing.

Overall though, I had fun messing around with it, definitely not bad at all for one person in 72 hours. If you're gonna continue working on it, though, I would recommend maybe adding some mechanics eventually, like sharks that come to attack that you have to fend off as well and such. Anything that adds to the total mayhem of the game and challenges you to spread your attention even more thin is likely to add to the excitement/fun. Will say that I'm absolutely so sick of this doge meme though :P

carrier_signal 2014-05-09 09:35

lol

goerp 2014-05-09 10:55

You had so many posts on the compo page I HAD to try it. Being rejected by Apple for 'bad taste' also helps ;)

I also like crude graphics like 'just put a dogs head on a dolphin body' (which is well done by the way), so you rate high on the humor category!

Nice music, that gave me the strength to keep going!

kerdelos 2014-05-09 11:34

I saved everyone !

martinysa0311 2014-05-09 12:08

Much Fun!!!

seconddimension 2014-05-09 16:45

Funny and controls pretty well too. Apple will regret crossing you

sk16games 2014-05-10 15:15

Wow. Such hard. Much drown. many die. so water. me like. xD

alvivar 2014-05-10 16:18

FUN[5] game! Highly Enjoyable.

(Shame on Apple).

xaychru04 2014-05-12 20:37

Haha such concept, so fun! (And very music!) :D
