WMD or With My Dog is all about using your dog and ball to explore the dungeons.

You throw the green ball and your dog will retrieve it, make sure he is not harmed running around.

Your dog can pass thru items you cannot, such as ghosts.

WASD to move the player, mouse click to aim and throw your ball.

Click to start / restart game.

Eat some cake, evade the ghosts, smash the urn, say hi to the rats!

Dedicated to both our dogs Tobi (Rip) and Hobo!

Credit and thanks to dogwok and Darren for the fun sounds :-)

Fine game, but it would be nice if you could start a bit faster after dying! I died a lot ;)

The windows version is totally unplayable.

The ball mechanics do not work (http://i.imgur.com/2kc52l6.gif) and even when running around by myself death seems to lurk around every corner and after each door, which, combined with the fact that restarting takes quite a while is really annoying. I also couldn't tell what each of the things was supposed to do other than kill me. I touched some birthday cake I guess, but it didn't do much. The dog symbols had me clueless too. Music was also quite jarring.

The respawn time is prohobitive: when trying to understand the game, I died a lot and not being able to restart in the second is really frustrating.

@slowfrog I'll see if I can get the restart sped up, it was a test game to see if the dog fetching / retrieving mechanic could work with obstacles

Mechanically a bit messy (getting reset to the start a lot was unfortunate), and music was silly. That said, I liked the concept!
