Now you can see the dogs sniffing butts!

Pixel art sausage dogs moving around. When a dog's nose is next to another dog's butt, the nose of the readmost dog animates with a sniffing motion.

Undo/redo working. This makes the game much more enjoyable. The player does not need to restart the entire level if they make a mistake.

You can also see some of the bonus mechanics in play. The dogs can pick up a ball and find a buried bone before sniffing butts to fully complete each level.

Pixel art sausage dogs move around the grassy playing area and pick up a shiny red ball in the bottom right corner. As they move, icons at the top of the screen indicate that the player can undo moves. After undoing a move, the icons indicate that the player can redo moves.

I dropped the three-star scoring mechanic. You are now awarded a rosette for completing a level, and can hunt for the buried bone as a secondary goal. #Pico8 #GameDev #PuzzleGame #ThinkyGame

An animated title screen showing a red rosette for each completed level, overlaid with a bone for levels in which the player also found the hidden bone. Levels that have not been completed are silver circles. The rosette for a selected level bounces a little to show that it is selected. The player selects and plays level 17, returning to the title screen after completing it.
