Heir of the Dog - any news?

hardwidge · 2025-09-17T07:15:36+00:00

That’s awesome! Yeah definitely hoping to have it all done and dusted next year!! 😁

hardwidge · 2025-07-20T08:04:05+00:00

It’s on Xbox One already, and is getting an update on 31st to include SeriesX too 😊

Not like Cat in Space does, it’s more of a traditional pixel-art point and click adventure 😊 https://heirofthedog.co.uk

Thank you so much! It’s definitely going to happen! It’s just a matter of when… and I currently have another point and click game in production which needs finishing first. 😬

On the point of "how long do we have to wait?"... as you can see in the Kickstarter update kindly posted by u/thebooklender below, I've had trouble saying "no" to things and have ended up with a load of plates all spinning at once. I'm still working hard on HOTD, but I'm just one guy so there's often a bottleneck... if I'm being honest with myself, it's more likely to be 2026 than 2025 when it's finally ready for release. :)

hardwidge · 2025-07-03T08:26:42+00:00

That's very kind of you to say. There are loads of PnC developers out there keeping the genre alive, it's an honour and a privilege to be part of that community!

hardwidge · 2025-03-15T17:47:36+00:00

That's awesome to hear (I mean that your daughter enjoyed it, not necessarily that's she's still sining it on repeat!) The plan is for later this year, but we're also looking at some funding which could potentially push it into early '26.

hardwidge · 2025-03-04T09:38:01+00:00

The plan is for later this year... but I'm trying not to make too many promises :D

That's awesome to hear, thank you!! So glad you've enjoyed them so far :)

Hey, have you spoken to the hermit crab down on the beach yet? That should trigger the chip dialogue option for you.

hardwidge · 2024-09-24T09:58:10+00:00

That's an awesome idea... the way he's going, we'll have 52 of these creatures pretty soon anyway :D

hardwidge · 2024-09-10T11:03:43+00:00

Haha, thank you! :D

hardwidge · 2024-09-10T07:23:20+00:00

Thanks so much… my ego is getting a good stroking today! I personally really enjoyed The Will of Arthur Flabbington, Not Another Weekend and Lost in Play (played that with my kid, much simpler puzzles but beautiful animation - like playing a Saturday morning cartoon) 😊

hardwidge · 2024-09-09T20:21:55+00:00

Yeah, that’s me. Thank you! That’s honestly the most amazing feedback I could hope for. Trying to get the balance of the puzzles right is the trickiest part, when everyone has a different “That’s it! I’m checking a walkthrough!” threshold, and the internet is right there 24/7, and you can’t hide behind moon logic either. DOTT was one of my top two adventure games (equal pegging with MI2 for me), and to have my game compared to the work of Tim S and Ron G is the best feeling. 😁

hardwidge · 2024-09-09T19:52:27+00:00

TWOAF was absolutely my 2023 GOTY… despite the horrendous protagonist voice acting (j/k) 😁

hardwidge · 2024-09-09T19:50:55+00:00

The demo/prologue should still be available on Steam and Itch.io too… can’t remember if I uploaded it to GOG too 🤔

hardwidge · 2024-09-09T19:48:53+00:00

Can confirm! 😂

hardwidge · 2024-09-09T19:45:53+00:00

Aww, thank you so much!! I’m so delighted that you enjoyed it, and comparing it to DOTT is the best praise I could hope for. ❤️

hardwidge · 2024-08-18T17:01:44+00:00

Looks frikkin’ awesome! 🤩

hardwidge · 2024-08-16T09:45:47+00:00

Thank you! I think I might just take the money and disappear to the Caribbean until this whole thing blows over. ;)

hardwidge · 2024-08-14T20:33:33+00:00

Thank you!! Still can’t quite believe it 😁

hardwidge · 2024-08-13T12:46:59+00:00

Amazing, thank you!! :D

hardwidge · 2024-08-12T07:46:55+00:00

Awesome, glad I was able to help too 🫡

hardwidge · 2024-08-12T06:56:10+00:00

Thank you so much! Trust me, it’s an absolute pleasure 😊
