Mr Husky Reviews

games goood for the price

Mr Husky is a bare bones asset flip, or what Valve calls a "Fake Game". The "developer" ripped off some retro pixel tilesets, slapped them onto a basic nw.js/Construct type physics puzzle game template, and dumped the mess lazily onto Steam as a cash grab... they have a known history of doing this kind of thing, one glance at their Steam catalog will clearly demonstrate these guys are just shovelware pushers, and this is no exception. This is a basic mobile app tier pathing puzzle game. It might look like a platformer, but it's much simpler and more dumbed down. Pressing any direction will make your "dog" run to the next barrier, so gameplay consists of running to each barrier until you reach the exit (another 2D retro pixel dog thing). That's all there is to it, basically the same game as the "Chocolate Makes You Happy" series of Russian ClickTeam Fusion asset flips from the Russian scammers at "Blender Games". Taking this shovelware seriously as if it was a genuine attempt to make a game, it doesn't meet basic minimum requirements that most PC gamers expect as standard. A choice was made to use obsolete, decades old retro pixel "art" as a substitute for contemporary PC graphics. It's unclear if this is due to lack of budget or talent, regardless, the overall visual quality of the game is extremely low as a result. There's an ugly screen filter meant to make the game look even more obsolete... like the game looks bad enough already, but they actually went out of their way to make it look worse. There's no way to turn this off. There's no option to change the resolution and no useful graphics tweaks. There's no way to ensure this is running at the native resolution of your display. There's no guarantee this game will look right on any PC as a result of this hamfisted design decision. The implementation here is of such poor quality, the developer couldn't work out how to make the game display in fullscreen, it only runs in a window. The controls can't be customised, which will be an annoyance for many, but it can also render the game unplayable for differently-abled gamers, or gamers using AZERTY or other international keyboard layouts. Some of the defects in the game can be attributed to the choice of using the Construct/nw.js game engine/toolset (hard to tell exactly, as Construct is built on nw.js, so games using nw.js just show up that way). This is a very poor quality toolset sometimes used by amateur developers as it doesn't require advanced game development skills, but unfortunately has very limited capabilities (it's worse than GameMaker Studio!). Just as you can't make a silk purse out of a sows ear, you can't make a great video game if you use a terrible engine. These technical defects push this game below acceptable standards for any modern PC game. Mr Husky is relatively cheap at $2 USD, but it's not worth it. Given the defects and quality issues with the game, coupled with the unrealistic price, and the questionable ethical nature of the developer and/or their associates (as outlined above), this is impossible to recommend.

I actually enjoyed this game and i don't really enjoy playing most games. Would want added workshop for custom maps and maybe co-op to race your friends.

Not a bad puzzle game. Had some fun playing it with some friends watching me.

Mr. Husky is a rough gem in the steam store. It has excellent music, charming pixel art, some solid puzzle mechanics of manipulating gravity to get to your husky love, and clever level design. It is a little rough around the edges - especially as things like elevators come into play, it almost seems like you have to "break" some of the levels a bit to solve them - but it is very charming and a good time waster. This game deserves more love, so it gets a definite recommendation from me!

Mr. Husky is a simple puzzle game where your mission is to unite Mr, Husky with the dog he has a crush on. To achieve this, you change gravity to reach your goal. This game is great for some casual fun, and best of all it controls and plays tightly and glitch-free. Plus, the graphics and music are both very cute. For a simple game, you can tell that there was a lot of love put into it. I recommend it!
