Serve the Dog!
A downloadable game for Windows and macOS
An eccentric rich man recently passed away. As his dying wish, his entire fortune has been left behind for the light of his eyes: Archie, his adorable puppy. You were hired as a Butler in his wandering estate, and now that he's gone, it's just you and the Dog. Will you be able to secure enough money for your retirement? Or will the Dog's increasing demands spell your financial doom?
Serve the Dog! is a single-player arcade platformer (slightly inspired by the documentary Gunther's Millions) where you play as the Butler, scrambling and running up and down a complex moving fortress, aiming to please every whim and desire of your canine master.
