CosmoDoggie by ItsHornUnicorn
You are a Cosmo Corgi!
Travelling the universe is exciting but you need to monitor the state of your rocket. Something may break at any time. Repair the details or your rocket will be destroyed. Corgi’s health also need some attention. Don’t get harm from the walls.
Enjoy the space or Die!
## How to Play
What to do
Move around the rocket carefully, and repair details in time if necessary! Don’t leave the rocket and try to avoid walls! The game is over when the Cosmo Doggie has taken too much damage or your rocket is defective!

Very cute!!
P.S. on itch.io, you have the fullscreen button enabled. Turn that off, and you'll go directly from the site to **real** fullscreen.
For criticism, I found it unintuitive that you could only repair things when they got broken enough, but I imagine the game would be too easy otherwise? Maybe a cooldown or channel on the repair.
Fun concept, keep it up :)
Technical notes: The game is cut off in the WebGL version unless I fullscreen (screenshot: https://i.imgur.com/wQGRQNt.png) - probably something off in the WebGL build settings.
Menu music is also brutally loud.
Think its been said before but some feedback while getting damaged would help the player understand what not to touch (flash the sprite or something simple)
If you take this game forward I think it be great to add more challenge to the repairs, for example have to hold the corgi in place while holding "E" to repair or having to press a series of keys in order to complete the repair (like quick-time event)
Overall the game was really nice! A great entry - thanks!
the tutorial is clean and straightforward, i appreciate it :)
I like to do everything I can so the player can find alone what to do, and put no tutorial.
But here we all have the same problem, the jam is very short, we don't have time for the perfect thing :D
I actually liked that your tutorial was easy to read.
Small bug: the tutorial was vertically stretched on my screen (but you have a screenshot posted here, so I was able to figure it out).
Current record is 69084
Overall I had a lot of fun playing this game :smile:
The gameplay works well, the background animation is nice.
It would be cool to add animation on corgi, specialy when the player hit walls. And also modify the corgi at bottom right of the screen to illustrate the health (ex: tired corgi when the health is low).
I enjoyed the game !
I think the concept overall is simple and smart.
I had a very rough time at first in moving the Corgi around and couldn't really understand what and how I was getting damaged, probably some kind of feedback there could have helped a lot.
Anyway great work, it is a very great concept that I could see expanded with a lot of jokes and panic moments!
Your game really fits the theme, well done!
