Bone Up by mir007

[raw]
made by mir007 for LD29 (COMPO)
Bone Up is a game where you are a dog looking for bones and driving away lawn pestering moles (all called Molemort). You score well if you don't dig too much and keep the master happy.

Give it a go!

Neat! At first I didn't realize how the bone system functions, but after I got the hang of it it was pretty interesting and fun! The slow acceleration felt a bit weird and the music felt a tad repetitive (although obviously mad respect for composing music in the first place!)

A cool little game with a great presentation. It's a little slow to take off and I'm not sure if the gameplay is there yet but there's definitely potential for further development here.

I like the art style and I hope you keep up working on a post-compo version :) Did you considered to speed up the dog's walking and digging?

Thanks guys! Very positive feedback! I'm pretty happy with it too and I think I'm going to make a post-compo version. Any input is very welcome. I'll just have to rest a few days before I start again. :)

A cute little game, with nice music and assets. If you continue to work on the gameplay, it will be really interesting! :)

Really cute. The pixel art on the dog jumping around fit perfectly.

Simple and Nice !
I think you've got a good start for a children tablet game.
Go on!

Not sure how the scoring system worked. But it was fun! The pixel art's cool, and the music goes well with it.

The music was great!
It fit with the dog, making the chords seem like dog barks

Unfortunately after a while it gets very repetitive

Nice little game

Ahah I love how it is super happy and fun :) But the game is very simple and I didn't really understand how the score worked (Did I have to catch all the moles?) Good job!

Thanks for the comments! The scoring is a little strange due to me experimenting with it a little.. ;) I have made a post compo game, where the scoring is better. And yes, you have to catch the moles!
