Even knowing what this game is about going in, it still manages to just hit you like a train; for being a simple puzzle game about a beloved dog who passed away, it conveys the grief of each of the family members in such a way that makes sense and is relatable. From helping with word puzzles, making food, licking the plates clean, and just giving each family a nostalgic memory to leave off on, Goodbye Doggy just knows the right buttons to push for each stage of sadness that anyone in life will experience from a passing.
There really isn't much to say about this game other than that; it's a simple point and click puzzle that has you, Doggy, do a few things for you family before passing onto the next life. The puzzles seem to be doable in a very open manner as you have the freedom to collect and give items as you please. I couldn't find any bugs or glitches on my two playthroughs, and for the message that this game is trying to convey, the length is just right to make the player feel
All in all, if you're looking for a trip down grief and acceptance, you should 100% play this game. It's a really short one, but one you'll remember
this game shot a arrow into my heart and this game makes me nostalgic and remembering everything in life but aside from that this game is amazing pls make more
So adorable yet so sad. The game teaches us how to cope with grief of a loved one leaving you forever by reminding us that even the one is now no more among us, still the memories are immortal. The love stays forever. <3
My childhood dog was the sweetest soul and it's a little silly, but sometimes I feel like she'd still with me. This reminded me a lot of how sweet she was and how much comfort she brought me in my hard times. Thank you for this gem. The froggy hat outfit was really cute! :>

i cried a little loved the dog so much but scared myself by pressing bark for too long LOL.
I wrote a song at the end to commemorate the good boy. It is as concise as it is heartfelt. Please enjoy. <3
This is so adorable at the same time sad TvT
Triste pero a la vez inspirador. 10/10
