About
This is an emotion-focused short narrative game with an average playtime of around 1 hour.
We believe that seeing and understanding our own emotions is a strength in itself. May this inner journey bring you moments of calm and resonance.
Anxiety Puppy is an interactive visual novel that tells the story of a young girl in a bustling city, who, while struggling with the pressures of life and work, unexpectedly embarks on a spiritual journey toward reconciling with her anxiety.
Her life trajectory seems no different from anyone else’s—studying, finding a job, working, with days that repeat endlessly.
However, only she knows that beneath every seemingly calm day, anxiety grows like an uncontrollable black line, suffocating her breath and tightening her nerves.
On one of her usual sleepless nights, her anxiety spirals out of control again, and she is pulled into a strange world. What is it? She doesn’t know, but maybe she can talk to it.
Game Features:
Fresh Hand-drawn Style – A beautiful, healing, original illustrated storybook art style.
Unique Game Theme – The game focuses on anxiety and aims to raise players’ awareness of this emotion.
Warm and Healing Story – The protagonist will undergo self-exploration through dialogue and interaction, ultimately finding reconciliation with herself.
Her story is not a lonely one.
She could be you, or me, or anyone struggling with anxiety.
But in reality, anxiety is not our enemy.
It is more like a well-meaning but awkward friend, and we just haven’t learned how to get along with it yet.
This time, let anxiety transform into a little puppy, guiding you on a healing journey of self-reconciliation.
We hope that the next time you feel anxious, you will no longer criticize your emotions or yourself.
Because anxiety is not a monster; it’s just a little puppy easily unsettled.

挺好的,最近好不开心,玩会儿治愈游戏吧。。
7/10: Short and cosy little story game that feels like a warm hug and a tiny panic attack at the same time. Relatable! PS. Best picked up during a sale
一个很暖心的很有立意的作品,首先画风就很好看,小白狗就像阳光映照出了虹光,其次就是配乐,能表达出情绪的变化,交互的设计也藏着小巧思。最重要的剧情方面,我认为虽然短但完全引起了我的共鸣,感觉被这个剧情打动、治愈,可能我有着一样的心路历程,就很能体会到制作者想要表达出的深意、对于“焦虑”的解读,当静下心来去品味剧情,和自己的过往所对应时,真的很感动

自年幼时起,具体的年月早已沉没在记忆的长河之中,可焦虑与不安,却早早地便与我如影随形。 作为家族中最年幼的孩子,我从小便被无数双眼睛殷切地注视着、期望着。在这样的目光里,我很早就学会了为不同的人戴上不同的面具,表演出他们最想看到的那一面。 面对家庭,我是幸运的。家中的资源天平无限的向我倾斜。父母在教育上为我倾注的金钱,多到我甚至不敢细想,也不敢去计算它的“重量”。我知道,我必须背负起他们的期待。即使当那种充满压力的“关心”就像游戏里许多父母对子女学业所做的那样——降临在我的身上也只能在心里默默告诉自己:“我没有资格反抗,他们已经为我付出太多了。”但我不怪他们,这只是他们爱的有些着急而已 “我害怕自己达不到他们的预期,更害怕自己会让他们的所有付出付诸东流。面对那些特别的人时,我也总是恐惧着他们有一天会离开。” 或许扯远了。 我害怕失去,害怕未来,害怕让别人失望……这些恐惧像藤蔓一样缠绕着我。我拼尽全力想要挣脱它们,像撕扯掉烧伤处早已粘连的绷带一般,近乎残忍地解构自己,一遍遍逼问内心:你究竟在怕什么?为什么会如此焦虑? 然而直到今天,当我落笔之时,我仍旧难以与自己真正和解。或许这条路,真的需要走得很长、很长。 但我也心怀感激——感激那些焦虑,它们曾在童年时,像一道荆棘的屏障,也许刺痛但它默默保护过那个弱小的我。谢谢你我的焦虑小狗。 题外话:也祝家里真正的“煤气罐”(宝贝狗子)健健康康快快乐乐
Très doux
Anxiety Puppy is a game I got because the art style is what drew me in. It's a short game but the price is reasonable for what you're getting. Gameplay-wise, it has really simple controls, nothing to get your stressed or anxious about. Rather than a really involved game, you get minigames that add onto the narrative. After completing it, a lot of it touched me personally (being Asian-American). The fears that MC has and of course dealing with expectations of those around you. Overall it's definitely worth a play. There may be some grammatical errors, but not to the point where it'll disturb your playthrough.
音乐,玩法,沉浸感都不行
唉,我无法共情,也许是经历不一样吧...不过还是乐意给好评
几乎没有玩法,文案和美术都不如gal game,和同类型横向对比也不如《Love choice拣爱》、《Florence》玩得舒服。焦虑小狗太线性了,交互根本没得选,作为一个局外人其实是知道更舒服的选项是什么的,但游戏就是逼着你跟焦虑迷茫小女孩做一样的想不开的事,就玩得很难受,感觉自己是人机,或者觉得有这时间我干嘛不去看小说。 这个游戏唯一让人眼前一亮的点在于,主题是焦虑,故事背景是[spoiler]刚大学毕业找工作那会儿[/spoiler],是社会达尔文主义下大部分空心人都要面对的课题,非常容易博得玩家共鸣(估计这也是销量低但好评率高的原因)。但仅仅是共鸣而已,加上玩法叙事美术水平低,导致玩完之后并没有让我觉得”很感谢能玩到这款游戏“或者”这游戏很值得“的感觉。
