What players say
This was a very cute and nostalgic game. It game me the feelings and vibes of all the animated animal movies that I loved as a child. It was fun challenging, at times funny. It game me a wheel of emotions.

I had fun with this one. It has a little bit of jank and some rough edges but the whole experience comes across with a lot of heart.
If you are a dogs/cats lover , you should absolutely try this one out !! I love hand drawn games , especially times where every single thing is AI already... i really wish games like these gets MORE attention than before , I saw the video so i really can feel whole game developing process was really challenging like mission impossible. Sincerely hope yall devs and your own pets can lived happily & healthy as many...
