Trial of the Doggo by Pedrowzee

[raw]
made by Pedrowzee for LD 40 (JAM)

cover.png

Recover your stash of bones stolen by Witchcat and his gang of evil cats.

Dualshock compatible.

  • Left and Right - Move

  • Down - Dig

  • A or Cross - Jump

  • S or Square - Sniff

No sound, unfortunately. Did not manage my time well.

Each level has a number of hidden bones. Sniff around and if you a see question mark, it means a bone is somewhere around, if you see an exclamation mark, it means a bone is very nearby, if you see nothing, keep looking. If you think you're standing on a buried bone, dig to find it.

The graphics are really well done! The platformer mechanics were well implemented too.

The momentum felt a bit weird and the hitstun was crazy overtuned (poor doggo gets bounced all over) but a good amount of content and man, those transitions between levels is a lovely effect!

nice game! you've built many levels, that's impressive. The background was kind of disturbing when jumping, but overall super cute and awesome animations and even boss fights!!

Well, I have played for a very long time now. This game is pretty hard man! But i love it.

This game reminds me a lot of super mario, I guess that’s kind of a inspiration game for this game. You managed to make a super addictive game.

The graphics looks really good, I love it.
Concerning the audio, as you probably already know there was no audio and that’s too bad because it would really set the mood. But you caught my attention even without the audio so i guess it’s fine!

Overall I enjoyed this game a little too much, i played for at least 30 minutes. I had an amazing time playing it. I will definitely come back and play this later. Thank you so much for this experience and good luck in the future! Have an awesome day, and I hope to see you in the next jam!

I really liked the art! And the controls feel pretty nice. If I have one complaint, it's that the jumps in the second level are more frustrating than fun. I know you don't die from them, but because there was nothing at stake but time, it just felt pointless.

But don't get me wrong! I like the game a lot. Look forward to your next game :)

Fun game. I could not for the life of me figure out how to beat the witchcat after collecting all the bones. Tried many times and still have no clue what to do. Overall I had fun though.
