About Sneakerdoodle
Sneakerdoodle is a cute top-down stealth game starring a dog who wants to be seen and petted. It twists the genre: the dog is trying hard to get noticed, and you steer it toward a bit of attention.
It won the GMTK Game Jam 2023. A team of nine covered character art, environments, interface, narrative, code, sound effects and music, and it shows in the polish.

What to Expect in Sneakerdoodle
Sneakerdoodle is short and upbeat. Stealth games usually ask you to avoid being seen, so a dog who wants the opposite is a fun turn. You still watch where people are, think about timing and pick your route, but the reward is a gentle one.
The art is bright and cheerful, and the dog's one big wish gives the whole game a sweet, clear purpose.
