The graphics are adorable, and the music is fitting. The controls are pretty rough though. I think the jumping would feel better if Wookie jumped when the spacebar is pressed instead of when it's released. The collision breaks occasionally, causing me to die a few times. I'm not familiar with Unity, so I don't think any advice I could give you would apply. Overall, it's a nice game!
@killerb thank you so much I’m glad you liked it ! The jumping was a hold over from the fact my dog irl can’t jump very well but you’ve got a good point it would have felt better if the control was on press instead of release. Thanks for playing!
I liked "Burger King". 😆
This is totally bizarre. I love it! The controls are pretty weird too - the jumping etc. But I thought it was a perfect match to the general weirdness!
How do you come up with this stuff!?
Tip: Ideally platforms should not collide when you are travelling up, only on landing - makes jumping easier to handle.
A totally mad and zany entry. Love it!
Ooow the dog is so cute! And so are the little monsters all around. I had a fun time playing, and I liked the bosses names too! I agree with the previous comments about the jump on space bar press and not release. It's a very nice entry overall!
@chocolat-endive here's a picture of the little guy himself being a bit critical of my work20220930_224511.jpg Im glad you enjoyed! thank you!
Aaaw so cute! Always love a good dog!
@pete-thorne thank you so much! in answer to how we come up with the zaniness, we started with a cute little idea about @thementalsheep's dog and my art started getting a bit darker and darker as we went along and we just went along with it enjoying the contrast
About the platforms they're on our list of things to hopefully fix after the rating period has ended it just came down to time and we worked right up until the buzzer.
Pinwheel Pizza makes me feel like eating pizza thanks
Cute dog game would bite and jump again
loved the burger and shrimp boss. made me laugh.
As a dog lover and pixel artist this hit the spot!! It was bonkers, I was laughing the whole way through (and plus points on The Simpsons reference!) although it hit me in the feels whenever the poor little fella died :cry:
The anticipation frames for the jump got me a bit - generally I think that for player characters they feel laggy (even if they look better) but other than that I enjoyed playing this fun, zany little game!
@narudgi enjoy your pizza!
@alex-de-la-cour Thanks so much, I've done a bunch of still pixel art but this is the first time I tried my hand at making animations and I'm really happy with how it turned out, @thementalsheep did tear up when I showed her my animation of her dog dying the first time :sweat_smile:
@clonze thank you!
I must say... I don't like the graphics. All the pixels have different sizes. But the dog is cute and the idea cool.
A very interesting game. Exciting music and a great battle with the Burger King. Looks like there is a random event witch keep you alive to meet the Burger King. I like this one.
The stopping before jumping makes the controls a bit confusing. Maybe it's intentional.
Haha those jumping is killing me, almost like in the Jump King :laughing:
Love the art and the music is great. I feel like your interpretation of the theme isn't the most nuanced but the random events are cool. Oh, and some great puns as well.
It's quite amusing! I really like your approach to the theme and the strange world you created! The dog is great :laughing:
The controls seemed very strange to me. The fact that the doggie only jumps when you release space results in an unnatural pause before jumping and does not feel smooth to control.
Just by the way: as you didn't make the music, you should have opted-out of the audio category per the jam rules.
@fabula-rasa I'm glad you enjoyed it , we forgot to opt out sorry about that
@fabula-rasa thank you! sorry about the audio category you're correct it was a mistake
all hail big prawn
