TAKE CARE OF THE DOG is a pretty short game I made while recovering from the surgery I had after I broke my arm
(I lost my movements, but I am slowly getting 'em back!!)

Hope you all enjoy!

I had no idea what to expect when I played this but safe to say I was pleasantly surprised. I loved the style of the game and how the atmosphere gets eery very quickly. Great job.
Game was wild! Freaking loved it! Can't wait to try out Take Care of the Cat!
THis game made me brain dead
Be proud
My playthrough (first game in video):
Fofo e ao mesmo tempo muito assustador, um cachorro ultra veloz e um maníaco imprevisível 10/10.
My weiner dog was not happy
Dog
Overall the story (Plot) is simple, but that's what makes it so good. The task are straightforward, and the atmosphere setting is perfect in those little moments.
Thanks for sharing this wonderful game, hope to play many more!
good game, and good story
Good storyline and gameplay
I want to play fetch with him forver.
Hmm... dog or cat person?
Great games—they really had me uneasy the whole time and were incredibly emotional by the end. Thank you for creating such a memorable experience!
Loved the game, loved the dog - made a video!
I love this dog
Honestly a nice simple game. Sometimes you don't gotta break the mold to make amazing content. 8/10 would eat the dog again
I would absolutely take care of a alien dog.
Advanced Dog Care goes wrong! Absolutely loved this! I had a blast! I hope I got a good ending 😅😅😅 Hope your arm is better!
incredible game. i love uncanny dog games. my favorite horror experience. really hit the spot for me since dog horror has always been my fav. love dogs but hate when they look... like that.
Very spooky
Fun game, definitely something different!
Such a weird game lol
Good game!
This was genuinely terrifying! Can't wait to see what I have to take care of next lol

- The game's art style and atmosphere are unique.. I loved them.. as well as the in-game events, which made me laugh, especially the end.
very fun. dog was such a good boy 10/10
THE BETRAYAL
Would pet sit again.
"Time to go nighty night and by nighty night I mean I'm gonna stab you 27 times in the chest"
"Heyy! That's my dOg that's my dog that is NOT my dog"
interesting idea
