A lovely :dog: puppy game, 3D platform jump, little puzzle, lots of jumps.
This game is very Gao Ming.

The puzzle is interesting. The art is also really nice and, as what the upstairs said, very Gao Ming. I like it, and I wish the game be a bit longer.

I love the sounds. The puzzle was easy but fun. Unfortunately it was really short.

Minimalist puzzle game with cute 3D models. Story well fits in the theme.

Hello bro XD! Super cute puzzle game! It's tiny but delicate~ 3D modeling with soul +1 Voice over with soul +1 :joy: I mistakenly got the whole idea; was holding the ball towards the window in the end, thought the dog supposes to break the window and escape before his master comes back.. :rofl:

Sometimes you don't need a lot of mechanics to make a good game. Nice color scheme and lovely sound effect. Also, it's very touching

Short and sweet! Love the aesthetics and that adorable bark. Puzzle was good and intuitive but you always want more.

This game is so adorable, the color scheme, the dog, the bark, the puzzle, the story, the aesthetic, everything, just adorable.

I love how you turn the theme of the jam on its head, at no moment I was able to guess exactly what the dog was going to do, so when it did I couldn't help but *ownt* :dog:.

Also, I ended up looking at some of your other games, must say, you made me create an itch.io account just to follow you :3

This short game surprised me all the way along! Telling a story with texts on walls are brilliant, making this game felt like an interactive movie. Don't even mention the perfectly tuned physics system, detailed sound effects (varies even when hitting the seesaw), and the cute modeling and animation.

This game gives me a complete experience and warms my heart. Awesome!

Cute and fun little game. I think the game is a bit too short. I would love to see you tell a longer story with similar mechanics. I will check the other games you shared on your itch account later. Thank you for making this game!

How cute was this? Loved the puppy and enjoyed working out how to use his toys/furniture to get up to mischief. Liked just making him bark too :-) Would make a fab full game - nice work!

Awwww, so cute! You should totally make a longer one! With different doggo adventures!

The puzzle is good, and the feedback of footstep from dog is definitely adorable, grabbing the ball in the start is a good idea for learning the grab action! i love the design, and i'll give higher score on mood, i wonder the game experience will go further if music is available.

萌萌萌!整体的色彩和画风搭配的很舒服。整体的叙事体验很棒,很暖心。时钟一直没动,是不是把时间的流逝也放入游戏机制中能更突出小狗急盼主人归的主题?另外提一个很个人的想法,解密的方式是否能有捷径?我在尝试了正常的过关方式后试着直接用球去砸相框,但是后面有墙挡着,即使能砸到相框,但应该是不能把相框砸下来的。如果能有这样的捷径,玩家发现后的成就感应该会更强。PS.小狗扔球的感觉十分到位,很爽!

Really good take on the small world theme! Loved the graphics and the sound effects, it took us a bit of time to find the solution to the puzzle (but that might be due to us running around the room barking). When we did find it we all did a collective (OOOO). Great game!

Aww, nice game! The graphics and sound effects were awesome, and it had a nice level of polish. Obviously pretty short/small in scope, but everything that was in it was very well done! I liked the puzzles but just wish there was more!
