cute game! thanks for making it (:
*satisfied woof*
Story grew on me as I went. ;)
The music was really nice too!
Came for the dog, stayed for the dog. What a cute and charming game. Why haven't I played it sooner!? The Bog's Heart can be completed in one sitting, and it'll leave you with a big goofy grin on your face. The message is a great one, and the dialogue can get really witty.
10/10 loved this!
Awww I'm so glad you enjoyed it. I had a lot of fun writing for the doggo, haha.
Thank you so much for playing!!
I really enjoyed this! The characters are all lovely (even if not equally friendly, hehe), and it's nice to get some aro rep, too.
I love the little touches like the animated start up screen and being able to open your great-uncle's journal whenever you want, too. They're just small things that add to immersion, but I've messed around enough with renpy to know that takes some extra effort! Great work.
A one-sitting, well-constructed VN with unique art, lovely characters, and simple, yet engaging story. A lovely game, overall.
Piping in to say how much I love this game! The style, as always, is unique and fun and I loved discovering more about the world and characters!
Thanks so much for letting me beta-test!
this game was so sweet! the puzzles were really cute :D and the world was really neat, i love your designs! thanks for making this!!
Thank you so much for playing! :D

I'm so glad you enjoyed it! :D Thank you for playing!
You're welcome :D
aaaaaa finally!!! I'll play it now and give you my feed back <3
hello I'm back, it took me a half hour to finish your game. I really enjoyed it. *SPOILER ALERT* i really enjoyed the idea the art and I was surprised at first with the fist choice I was like what ?? I'm the dog!! this is so cool !! and when the dog talked I was disappointed I though he was a cute dog but in the end that wasn't him so that's a relief XD I think there was a mistake when she met that person in the end instead of saying my great uncle she said my great grandfather or something like that .
anyways I really liked this game thank you for making this <3 <3
Oh I'm so glad you enjoyed it!!!
And uwaaa I'll have to fix that typo at the end!
