Description

A short game about walking dogs and a rich old cow of a lady.

Arrows - Move Tap space - Yell (might get the dogs attention, might scare them)

The HTML5 version is a bit buggy so I recommend using the downloadable :)

    I felt like holding the space bar down for such a long amount of time in the introduction is a bit unnecessary and made that part drag a lot.

    Made me smile, at least once I turned down my sound to mitigate the extremely shrill scream sound effect!

    I had a massive amount of trouble getting the first dog even around the first corner without the leash breaking or the dog veering into the dirt - to the point I nearly quit thinking that was the joke. Once I had kind of found a balance of screams to keep the dog leashed, and moved slowly and carefully enough, I got the hang of it though. Second dog I didn't fail on, although I was confused by the inability to walk (until I started screaming repeatedly). Third dog I couldn't complete.

    Funny little game with a unique premise!

    Jeez, what an annoying old b...woman. Whilst walking the second dog, after like 2 seconds, I started moving REAALLLLLY slowly. Like, 2 pixels a second. And when I moved horizontally, the player changed direction every tick. Not sure if this is a bug.

    I think you very faithfully re-created a frustrating and demeaning experience :') Very difficult - but then suddenly sometimes all the dogs behave fine and you can drag them around the loop no problem - only for them to scatter just as you're about to cross the finish line.

    I played until level 5 (frustrating but engaging!) and after some very close near misses finally quit my job as a dog walker and closed the game window.

    There should be some visual indication of how long space is held to advance text.

    The sound when failing to walk the dog was way too loud! I had to stop playing after that.

      Thanks for the feedback! Yeah if I could do it again I would readjust the sound levels. Didn't expect it to be worth turning the game off for though, I guess next time I will need to make sure it's accessible for noise-sensitive individuals :)
