I loved the "Draggy Dog" intro. The idea behind the game mechanic is very interesting. It took me a second to figure out what the rules were. It would have been nice to have a some tutorial in the way of a pop up when you died saying something to the effect to touch the RIP gravestone to comeback to life or the level resets. That or have something on your itch page that outlines that. I would have liked to have seen a draggy dog mechanic in the game as well as the intro teases that. The jumps were very floaty, there are some great YouTube video on how to make a jump feel great. I think overall though the submission is solid. It is a great idea and you can definitely flesh it out more and have yourself a very fun platformer, especially if you added a Draggy Dog Slide mechanic.

Hi Mbal, Thanks for the feedback.

  • I will try and communicate the mechanics a bit better.
  • I tried the draggy dog, only pass over floor tile once, but I had issues designing levels. Not my strong point.

I'll check out the videos. Thanks again.
