    As a dog lover, YES - this is way too cute :)

    Question - what are you doing with the score? Why such large numbers?

    He lays down and snoozes if you leave him too long! That's so cool.

    In terms of critique - very tough game to play. I actually struggled to figure out if I was even doing it right cause the response seems a bit random.

    This is a very cute game that is VERY nicely put together. If it was mine, I'd jump straight back into Unity right now and tweak those controls a little more. There's definitely a lot of room for improvement.

    Get v1.1 out ASAP!

    Thanks for the feedback guys. Using these large numbers for the score was just a silly idea.
    Especially when you get to post the score in words on Facebook :) Two trillion, four hundred billion.... etc.

    Should I add an extra screen to explain the controls a little better, or what else would you suggest regarding the controls? I assumed a simple swipe/touch to control the dog movement would be intuitive enough.

    I just saw the thing where you can post the score in words. Yeah, I see where you were coming from with that. At first it just seems a bit odd. I thought maybe it was in "dog score" or something - i.e. x7.

    Yeah, definitely an extra explanation screen might do the trick. I couldn't figure out if my swipe needs to start on the dog sprite itself, or has to cut "through" the sprite, or could be anywhere on screen. A lot of trial and error initially to make any progress.

    Well done though mate - I generally dislike most mobile games so if I'm keen enough to want to keep at it and get better, you've done something pretty cool.

    "Game Pawsed" - STOP IT! :)

    An update for the game is now available.
    I've added a short tutorial that explains how the touch controls work.
    Thanks again for all the feedback.

    Happy Thanksgiving everyone :)
