this game seems like some effort has been put into it, although you have no feedback or ratings because YOU HAVE TO PLAY OTHER PEOPLES GAMES AND RATE THEM otherwise your game will never show up on anybodys feed.

Just like the other person said, don’t forget to rate other peoples games so that you too get some ratings, i found this on the zero tab. The game was fun, you did a good job :)

I don't recommend exporting as an installer! Cool game though!

@kbjwes77 That's why I also included a zip install for those who don't want to download as an installer. Thank you for the feedback!

Well done! loved the graphics most of all, also really liked the music. It seemed as though there wasn't so much to the game itself, but the general concept worked out especially with the nice old-pokemon-style graphics.

This game was great, but super hard and sad! No one want's dead dogs q.q I couldn't seem to keep my dogs alive, and always ended with lots of negative score (around -7 million, those poor dead dogs...)

I loved the sounds and the artwork, this game was super well made. The only thing I found frustrating was picking up multiple dog bowls when I was trying to set one down.

Thanks for sharing this game with me and letting me stream it, really great job on this :smile:

Loved it! A little bit hard to manage if you start placing too many dog bowls since pick up and put down is the same key. But the chaos was fun! Also, those poor dogs!!!! Haha

I didn't end up finishing cuz I got this error when I was trying to open a toilet surrounded by dogs: ``` ___________________________________________ ############################################################################################ FATAL ERROR in action number 1 of Step Event0 for object oSolid:

@jamison Thank you! Ive been unable to track this bug down so this helps a ton!

This is a very chaotic game. It's sad that the dogs die, but I guess I can understand. I like the look of the limited color palette, but when there are so many dogs, and items, and messages popping up, it does get hard to distinguish things from each other.

Strait 5s Winner of "Best in Show" your game will be linked on my channel main page: https://www.twitch.tv/tiger_j I really struggle to find any criticism. maybe the j/k buttons could be smarter and a single button but it works either way. Seriously fantastic game. Here is your segment from the stream: https://www.twitch.tv/videos/298451826?t=01h01m59s

A bit confusing at first, but once I got the hang of it, it was really fun!

Chaotic gameplay with music backing it up - the sound effects were a bit loud, and it was possible to just exit the side of the map and despawn everything visually, but other than that it was a lot of fun!

Hey. I don't have a pc, but I really want to try your game after watching the video. I can feel the physics is well handled, and I love the graphics. I personally am a hard core player, and this fast-paced game is definitely my type. I look forward to your feedback to my dog game! Ha!

I guess I'm really not a dog person, eh? Got really frustrated by those stupid dogs running all over the place, moving stuff around, and.. breaking *walls*? :sweat_smile:

@finalspace I built this on Mac, but for some reason Game Maker Studio 2 Export to Mac, and then transferring that zip file, gave me a ton of trouble! I will come back to this eventually and try to fix the build issues. Thanks for checking out the game though in the meantime
