That is indeed a cool dog!I struggled a fair bit to understand how to make the ball work but managed to find in the end. Maybe a visual aid when you're holding the keys to kick the ball would help? But I really like the gameplay idea of the dog running after the ball and controlling him this way. I think it's really smart and wish to have more levels to explore the concept. Congrats!

Cool concept. Kinda lacks a tutorial, but I can get over that.

I love his sunglasses XD, this works really well! I could see this being a full puzzle game! Had a great time.

Out of the box idea, dog-whistling mechanic was really fun!

Very original mechanic, that was fun!

It's very simple and effective. I found the controls to be a little counter intuitive at first, but I enjoyed your game. I like how you managed to make such a simple graphic interesting.

Thank you! The ball physics is something that I struggled with and would have improved with more time. I meant to add an arrow to show the direction and force of your next kick and limit the amount of kicks you can do in some way, since you can literally make the ball fly if you want to.

This is a unique and enjoyable mechanic. The kicking of the ball was fun to do and worked well. Nice game!
