Easy to learn, hard to master, nice concept! Would definitely enjoy more levels. It reminded me a little bit this old GBA game, Kuru Kuru Kururin. Anyway, it would make a good mobile phone game. Thanks!

Very cute dog, dumb, but cute. Fun to play, I will be awaiting the sequel "Dog ate another bomb: Bank Heist"

Really solid game. It's clean and well made. Your art is well done too :)
I'd love to see more levels, but knowing you were alone for making this whole thing... you have all my respect !

Well your effective blog post got me to play this. No dog should explode if I can help it. Sadly, that's just what happened in most cases. I love you for adding checkpoints, too many LD entries get me interested but then just butcher my time by making me replay parts.

I felt kind of abused at the end as it seems all this was an elaborate scheme to blast the safe open, but that's life I guess. Absolutely adorable dog and graphics in general, congrats for managing to draw all that and code the game.

Simple game in which unstability is within player's control. It was fun.

Didn't see the theme as much, but the game is great! It looks super good, and has fun controls. The checkpoints are nice and forgiving. Really well done!

Really fun game, I really like that the flashing is synced to the beat! I think it's also very smart to use the crossroads as checkpoints as they have a connotation of "safety" and blend into the environment. The music is very nice as well!

This was a hilarious game, and I loved this entry. I wish it were longer! The graphics are solid, the gameplay is sweet and simple, and this is just fun all round.

Lovely dog! Simple and nice gamepay, a lot of fun! Wish there were more levels and / or mechanics, like moving objects, or some boosts or whatever, but still pretty polished and funny game! Great job!

The dog is adorable!! And I love him. Overall I think my favourite part was the feather particles though, really adorable!!

Everything is well polished and pretty solid. It took me a small time to get a hang of the controls, but once I figured it out I was able to beat the game :3

Well done overall, I loved it :3 Thanks for submitting it for me to try out \o/
