Very nice

I really like simple games but I wish the dog actually reacted to the pets and boops but I really love the rest of the game and feeding the dogs

Thank you for the nice review! I will see what I can come up with for some reactions to Petting, Patting and Boops to add in. If you have ideas I would be glad to hear them! You can send them to ASteamingPileOfGames@gmail.com or post on our Discord server.

I would like to let you know that there are now NEW reaction animations for all the various interactions with the dogs. I hope you enjoy them.

Very bare bones, not even a demo

This is not even worth the 99 cents I paid for it! The dog just stands there, doesn’t even move around, in a small dark dingy barn or something and most pets don’t even register for points. You have to hit some always moving sweet spot for a pet on the back to register and there’s really nothing to do. Just tap (pet) the dog, give it a treat and it just stands or sits there. The dog isn’t AI, does not really respond to anything, makes a few goofy game sounds if you pet it in exactly the right place, there’s no way to name it, it just stays in one place not doing much of anything. Whoever gave this 5 stars must be friends with the developers. This looks more like some simple school project than an app worthy of the Meta Store or even Applab.

I am sorry that you assumed there would be more than what was listed in the game description... Boops, Pats and Pets. it is SUPPOSED to be very simple, and no advanced AI was mentioned. It is just a simple relaxing experience, spending time with a cute virtual puppo.
If you had issues petting one of the dogs, I would be glad to look into it, you can share details to aSteamingPileOfGames@gmail.com and I will check it out right away.

I would also like to mention that there are NO issues with petting any of the dogs that I can find. If you still have issues please let me know, I would like to solve it for you.

Cute dogs and pleasant atmosphere!

I went in expecting to pet a cute dog, and I sure got to do that! But what I didn't expect was how relaxing and pleasant it was to just hang out with the dogs. Put on some tunes in the record player, hunker down with a cute pup and listen to the birds outside while the light of the sun comes in through the windows and doors. Very relaxing!
