I don't know if the original creator is still reading these comments, but I'll still write something, maybe a little short... (Spoilers maybe?)

First, from a game design perspective, the writing was really good, I only played it once (and heard a rumour it doesn't actually change much) but I didn't notice any major issues with branching paths or anything... And I'm not really a pet person, when I saw where the story was going, I mostly was just "let the dog die, it will be fine" but as the game went on I kinda got a different perspective, when the dog did die I felt sad, looking back, nothing really mattered, I personally never got to experience anything with the dog, the closest thing was how you met him at the end (and even that was afterwards) and the fact that I didn't care, yet I could understand how you could care without any purpose was impressive, it helps me out into perspective dealing with other people's loss, if my neighbor's pet died, I probably wouldn't care, but now I could understand how to be sympathetic even though I don't care about it personally... That is impressive, good job on the writing

Is there a way to download this? Somebody make an app or something!

Very cool, I think this is the first pixel art I've seen on one of these competitions, I was going to do a pixel art for this one too, but I didn't have time to finish it, anyway cool, good luck

Nice! The perspective is a bit off, but with some practice you could be a really good artist, you should be proud

Aww, I think the deadline was the 25th, and this says it was posted on the 26th, hopefully jazza will still look at it, and because of timezones and stuff, I'd imagine he'd give a little grace period... Looks good!
