Pet Dusky
To make Dusky as happy as possible by petting and rubbing her head.
Use [D-pad] or [Arrow Keys] to move your hand around and pet Dusky. Gauge her reactions to figure out where she likes to be pet the most.
Use [A button] or [Spacebar] to give Dusky rubs and scritches. If you pick the right spot she'll be really happy, but be careful not to get too greedy.
Multiple endings depending upon how you perform, which one will you get?

I give up.
funny game
funny game, looks promising
for now it's way to hard. not alot of stuff going on.
And the petting is pretty weird its feels restricted in motion.
for now its feels rewarding if you want to have a fast bad end.
so cool concept must be a pain in the arse to program, still very nice keep it up
I literally don't understand this. There are three bars, none of which are labelled so I can't tell if what I'm doing is good or not. I raised the blue one without raising the others and I got a game over, but it raises so much faster than the other ones that it's nearly impossible to raise the others without getting a game over. I'd suggest adding a tutorial, because this desperately needs one
Thanks for playing. The bars are meant to be a temporary display that will be replaced by various reactions from Dusky as I continue to animate her.
Happiness (the pink bar) actually continues going beyond the maximum displayed value. That is intended and will result in some unique behavior in the future.
finally after 20 mins of finding the right spot got i, worth ? maybe. jokes apart pls go easy on us and downgrade the difficult a little
Thanks for playing! I'll be continuing to adjust the difficulty as I update this game.
I'm really with this, head pats are good and make me feel good, also Dusky looks amazing ! Though it's really lacking in stuff to do and needs a lot of adjustments I'd like to see this continued, keep it up!
Thanks for playing. I will be continuing to polish and expand upon the things you and Dusky can do together in the future.
Yeah. I have zero clue what you want me to do with this. The "overstimluation" and "frustrated" bars go up so much and so quickly that even just moving my hand around to find this way too elusive sweet spot puts me way behind. Even when I do finally find a spot that moves her happiness bar up (barely), it ALSO raises the other bars by more. Is there a way to let these bars go back down? If I move around, overstimulation seems to drop by a tiny amount, but frustrated goes up. There seems (?) to be certain spots that lower frustration but those still raise overstimulation. If you're wanting me to do this very tedious juggling act, I'm not going to do that. I've given this a dozen tries. My last try, I actually got happiness up to about, oh, 5%. And it crashed.
Sorry, man. But this just...isn't fun. It needs work. You need to fix the crashes and probably have a heart-to-heart with yourself on exactly what you want your player experience to actually feel like. I'd say you need to make the happiness progress more noticeable and chill waaaay out with the progress on the other bars. Hell, in one playthrough, I did three rubs and her frustration bar was almost full. That shouldn't happen.
Thanks for your feedback. I'm going to be adjusting the parameters as I continue to work on the game. Initial playtesting has definitely shown that I may have over-tuned the difficulty a bit too much. I appreciate the fresh perspective that you and other players provide.
Thanks! Sorry if I came across as rude. Not my intention. I just get long-winded in my comments. I do like it! She's well animated and I was interested to see how it developed. It's also unique, most of these style of games just have you touching random body parts. I think you got something here. Keep it up!
Got a embedded page error while playing the game.
Thanks for the feedback. If you can provide the error code, if any, that would be very helpful. I have identified an issue in the unity web player that causes a crash and I will be working on a way to fix it in the future.
I only played it a few times and then once I figured out how to reduce the last 2 rows I hit the embedded error with chrome and saw no way to copy and paste it or I would of put it in the comments.
