big dog and little dog [browser]

Your dog is very excitable, I wouldn't get between it and another dog in the latest puzzlescript puzzler by Stephen Lavelle: Big dog and little dog. (Z key to undo a move, R key to restart a level)

Not too bad...interesting mechanic...could for sure be expanded upon in greater depth but solid overall

Bad dog!

I am conflicted about this.
I don't think people should have dogs.
But this one is killing lots of dogs.
So as long as that is all it does I'm good.

I guess I'm missing something. All I see is that if I move the big dog around, nothing happens until it is even with the little dig -- at which point the big dog pushes a human toward the little dog as far as possible. Then I can move the big dog around some more, but every time it's even with the little dog, it rushes toward the little dog again. If I push the other human in between, the only difference is that both humans get pushed.

It's disturbingly entertaining, but the big dog's goal is to get at the little dog. It's not pretty.

It's possible to find a sequence of moves, moving people around so that you don't get stuck and can actually reach the small dog(s).

> It's not pretty.
It's mocking aggressive dog owners, can't you tell?

The small-dog-riding mechanic from the last levels is sick ;)

Ah, games made with spite. My favorite.

Okay, maybe there are controls I don't know about, but all I can find are , , , , , and , and I can't find any combination of those that does anything interesting -- at least, on the first level, which is as far as I've gotten.. Help?

What I meant to reply was:

@Andy For the first level: move the bottom person next to the middle row of trees (at the height of the trousers, the face at the height of the little dog).
Now you can move around the 2 persons before seeing the small dog, so you can get to the small dog without a person getting in between.

Can anyone please help with the second level? I understood the first level, but I still have no idea what I'm doing.

Nvm I got it

Please help with Level 6

Matt said...

Anon, Level 6: if you get past the first group, you can remove that group. Repeat.

Is anyone still working on this? I'm stuck on the level with 5 dogs (two pairs of two and a single).

Andy said...

Thanks, Bart! That was the hint I needed. (So obvious, once you see it...)

One of the worst games I have ever seen on this site.
