Ranked from 64 ratings. Score is adjusted from raw score by the median number of ratings per game in the jam.

How does the game fit the theme?
First, I took the "biscuit" from the theme to choose the settings of the game (dog biscuits). Then, the mechanic of the game makes it so that you get a higher score the more you're willing to risk losing a heart. As you only have 5 hearts, you must calculate the risk of getting a higher score but possibly having to restart the game if you lose all 5 hearts!

What code and assets did you not make from scratch during the jam (if any)?
The sound effects were from Pixbay! But all code, art, and music were made by me during the jam.

Really loved the art! The dog crying when losing a heart really made me feel bad for letting it happen :(, pretty fun game

A+ on everything visual here.  Sprites, animations, main menu, interstitials, UI, background... ALL of it is looking great.  The SFX is also coming through really strong.  I like how the sound played when you click on an enemy changes based on how close the enemy was.  This is really great feedback when explicit visual cues of the radii have been withheld.

The only bug I encountered was being able to score multiple times off the same enemy if I clicked fast enough.  This is toward the benefit of the player, so I didn't mind that much.  I was on a roll already and this helped propel me into 5-star status. The only feel bad I have is for Bambi's owner, who will almost surely have to pay more at the groomers after Bambi successfully barked their way out of 99% of the cleaning regimen.

Very cute game

Great concept, loved trying to leave it to the last minute to click on the enemies. Overall really nice polished cosy vibe :)

Submitted

Great interpretation of the theme!

Submitted

The dog is so relatable

Submitted

Bambi looks like my dog and the maternal instinct to NEVER LET ANYTHING HURT THE POOR BABY took over...

You know the art is incredible, really clean animations!

I found dryer-y quite hard to click on as it was difficult to tell what was enemy and what was flavour animation? BUT that may have been the point

Submitted

Its a nice game, maybe a bit too difficult for me hahah

Submitted

Super cute and easy to pick up & play!

This game is soooo adorable! It's illegal! :D

I am amazed by how much you were able to achieve in a short jam time! The game is very polished, with an amazing pixel art and music! 

Submitted

The artstyle is so amazing! Animations are smooth, and the vibe feels cozy. Music is also very good. You managed all those difficult tasks by yourself, that's very incredible! Also loved the creative theme a lot... why do we have to force our innocent Bambi to bath :(

Submitted

love the art style. well executed game

Submitted

Very polished and cute art style.
I would add a custom cursor  (dog collar maybe?) as I felt the mouse cursor disappeared in the art style

Submitted

Cute game with lovely visuals! I like the concept of waiting until the enemy is closer to get higher points and the risk that comes with that

Submitted

I had a great time playing your game! The art is super cute and really well done, creating a delightful atmosphere. I loved your creative take on the theme. It’s so charming and unique!

The dog is absolutely adorable, and I couldn’t help but smile at its every move. The gameplay was solid and fun, and it kept me engaged throughout.

Great job all around! Keep up the fantastic work!
