A simple game using HTML5/canvas2d/javascript. Tested in chrome, firefox, and safari. No sound in firefox.
You play as a dog that, sadly, was hit by a car while playing fetch. Now you get to spend all day running around your own little world catching frisbees with no cars in sight. There is no goal, but it does sound nicer if you catch a frisbee instead of letting it drop to the ground. Total time spent: ~13 hours
I love the instructions at the start. Those first four lines almost work as a poem! I caught some stuff, don't know if it goes any further than that though.
Raptor85 - what browser/operating system? It sounds like you got a javascript error but I'm not logging anything so I can't look into it :(
emveyh - this may not work, but trying going to www.hazzens.com (you'll get an error), then clicking the link again. A friend had DNS issues and that seemed to clear them.
Unfortunately, I couldn't access the game; it said it could not find the page. I'm using Chrome on Win7
The screenshots look amazing and minimalist though, which is a style I totally dig!

I really enjoyed the ambient background music. It really set the sad mood for the game. I didn't understand the story until I read your description, it made sense though and it was quite touching. The hit box for the frisbee was a bit big, and the sound effect for that was a bit jarring. Great job!
My first thought, was "wow, harsh." It's fun running around and jumping off the hills as the dog though. I wish there was more game behind it, like you get to spend the frisbees you catch on higher stats or abilities to make catching frisbees easier. The graphics were nice though and the controls good.
Worked fine for me on Linux with Chromium. I really enjoyed the introduction and the look of the terrain and blocky clouds. It just lacks a little bit of a goal and gets boring fast after you ran around the small world catching the Frisbee a few times. Still very nice work for only 13 hours.

Using safari on Lion. If anything changes, drop me a comment and I'll check again!

I think there should be some visual feedback for when you catch frisbee.
