Players looking for a full game may bounce off once the available dog interactions are exhausted. There is no branching campaign or extended progression to carry the experience beyond petting, throwing a ball, tossing a stick, and spending time in the environment.
What is You Can Pet The Dog VR?
You Can Pet The Dog VR is a short virtual reality game focused on interacting with one dog.
Players can pet the dog, throw a ball for fetch, toss a stick, or pause to spend time with it. The setting uses bright colors and handcrafted landscapes inspired by classic Disney films and the opening sequence of DOGGONE. The experience is built around a single activity rather than branching storylines, extensive player choice, or hundreds of hours of content. A color-perception setting is included so color-blind players can adjust the presentation. The game also serves as an introduction to DOGGONE, an upcoming game about a lost dog.
