Awww..... that's sad. Cute little game, though. There was a segment in the clouds near the end where my character got stuck and could not get out; may need to be fixed.

Super cute game. The balloon mechanic is so cute and fun. I want to put the little old dog sprite into my pocket. The extra balloons is a game changer.

Sweet game. After some balloons I was mainly spamming the up button to get past the things haha but the concept is pretty good. Loved how everything fits together, only missing piece there is a chill song in the back.

Good job!

Dang I'm sad now, good game.

oh no, I see we both wanted to make ppl sad about dogs and you got me in that bittersweet way.

I loved your cute goldie sprite and I knew what was coming story-wise but still wanted to see goldie's story through to the end. I'm not great with puzzles but I didn't struggle too much and "dying" didn't feel punishing enough to make me want to stop.
