The graphics are super cute and it's amusing following the dogs' conversations. It's a shame there isn't more to it, though. Some sounds and music would be nice at the very least.

Hey I loved the artwork and the presentation, plus the comedy value in the Barkbook conversation. I would love to see a bigger version of this, maybe with the player being able to take part in the conversation themselves. Plus some audio would be cool as well.

Good work though! I hope you enjoyed yourself.

I love dogs, but can't play this on a mac. Could you perhaps link some gameplay footage so I can still give some feedback?

This was very cute, loved the presentation and the humor. Would be nice if there was more interactivity to it but good work.

I played this on Livestream a Few Days Ago: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uiOC3F43xF0

The graphics are great, and the Mood is really fantastic. A lot of thought went into it, it took me far longer than I wanna admit to realize the dogpark pee spots were the facebook for dogs... (FaceBork?).

Anyway, I had fun with it, a very solid entry!

Cute graphics and nice dog conversation xD Althought it would be nice if it exists more interactivity and perhpaphs ¿win/loose condition?.

Good work anyway!

Great graphical presentation, somehow reminding me of Disney's Point & click games. I liked the dialogue as well and the small jokes in there, like the profile picture of the female hound. As everyone said, too short, and yet, so nice!

The graphics is great, also the idea with the way of "communication", if we can call it this way. I think it can serve as a good start for something very funny, cute a catchy. Good job!

A very cute looking game. But I would have liked some more game mechanics.

A short funny game, I like dogs conversations but this game maybe need some sound or music. Good graphics and a well-made gameplay. Good job.

Cute. Well done - maybe too short. I liked it ++

It's short, but I like the concept and it's very beautiful too!

This is a cute experience, and a funny take on social media. Like a few of the comments mentioned though, I think it lacks interactivity. You could give the player a way to make an impact on the game world, like allowing them to leave a message of their own.

Game lacks gameplay, you just walk around and the game is over.

Beautiful game, could do with a bit more gameplay. Status updates appear out of order? Would be great to be able to interact with conversations.
