PUPPER is my second attempt as a PICO-8 game but the first worth releasing.. or at least I hope it is.
PICO-8 is the perfect platform for what I want to do and I can't thank Krystman at Lazy Devs Academy enough for his excellent tutorials. Clearly, this is built off of the Porklike framework with a bit of Breakout Hero for some juice.
Originally intended to be the second enemy for my generic roguelike, the puppy took on new life when I stumbled into their walk cycle. They immediately seized the central focus of the game and sent me down the fun path to PUPPER. I hope you enjoy it as much as I did making it. I learned a lot and finished a game I'm proud of.
It also gave me an opportunity to work with a talented young composer, named Mitchell Oeth (SoundCloud - YouTube), who came through in the clutch to deliver a killer soundtrack and spare everyone my tortured beeps and boops.
PUPPER is dedicated to all my good doggos (...and one kitty cat) on both sides of the rainbow bridge.
