P.S.

As a lot of people are commenting that the game itself lacks contrast --
I've decided to post an earlier version available here:

proper game play availability to all browsers

Man! I feel kind of dumb; I don't really get it. I feel like it is intentionally glitchy. I usually stay with games that aren't easy to understand because often they are a pleasant suprise. But I don't get this.

I thought dogs were colour blind :D

Feels a little too incomplete this one.

Interesting game, though I feel like I'm missing something. A bit hard to make out the graphics, more contrasting shades would have been nice. Feels like some music would have been good to have at least.

The camera effect was trippy and I liked exploring a big space. But I wish there was more too see like the pyramid and graveyard. It also would've been nice if there was more contrast so I could see what it was I was discovering.

Graphics felt a little glitchy for me and I didnt really understand the point of it. The art was pretty cute though :)

We chatted in a twitch stream for someone else's game, thanks for saying hello :) this looks like a lot of fun but sadly being ipad bound at the moment I'm lacking the requisite arrow keys ;)

Such game, much topdown! The tiles were playing with my eyes, but in a good way. Would be good to see crisper versions of the tile graphics!

When the dog going downward animation looks so great! Awesome style. But pretty hard to ahieve the gameplay.
