About the Game

FIDO is a short, top down horror game about a dogsitter's job gone wrong. Walk around three different stages, complete dogsitter tasks, and avoid Fido. To win, you must translate demon runes to fend off Fido while collecting the items needed to exorcise the dog! Just a quick little indie game made for class :)

Features (Potential Spoilers):
- Three different stages of the game
- Different goals and mechanics for each stage
- Fetch Quests and 'stealth' section
- Exploration and discovery
- Unique 'Translation' mechanic (translate runes flying at you to keyboard letters, and press them all in time to keep Fido at bay)
- Roughly 15-30min playtime
- A main menu
