As someone who wants to become a flash game reviewer, i can safely say this game defines the meaning of a game that is so downright terrible that it is amazing. My score? 9/10 on the Benometer.
Oh hey, I didn't know they were making "Marmaduke: The Movie: The Game"

This exactly the type of game I would expect to be programmed in a break room with three dog working on it, with one being dead weigh...I mean, the thinking dog....
Nice in-universe game, Escapist!

The whole game is a joke, get over it guys. If you don't have the patience to sit there and hold "d" and click to fire your mini-gun every few seconds, then simply don't play the game.
Damn, I have seen a hell of a lot of bitching here in this thread. It's meant to be a joke. Treat it like one.
PS - I got the Seal Puncher badge, and it was worth it.
I did enjoy the game. I knew it was a joke, but i honestly thought it was so purposefully bad that it was really good. Im sorry.Z of the Na said:
Yes I get that it's deliberately bad, that it's the kind of rubbish that the characters would release. I get that there is something more to it than just an abomination unto gaming, and you can wax lyrical about the fact that 'such a game could only have been conceived in Hell' all you want.
The thing is it's just not funny.
Don't get me wrong, the pig cops- good, the utterly overpowered alternative weapon you have to look close to even discover you have- good. The problem is it goes from 'haha funny grind' to just plain grind. I played through the whole thing for only 2 reasons; I wanted the badge, and I was waiting for my dinner to cook and had nothing else to do! The game is about 75% too long to be actually funny. After that it gets stale unbelievably quickly. I was hoping there would be some fourth-wall breaking end, where the devs admitted the game was crap, apologised and gave the badge away as means of making it up to the player. Instead we get more 'OMG Teh game iz amazing!!!!!! buy it now!!!1' which isn't funny (though would have been say 7 minutes earlier) and are left just feeling like we've wasted time, and not even in a sort of 'I wasted so much of my life I could cry' kind of way. It's just old and overdone.
In short; nice idea, stretched out for too long when a quick burst would have been funnier, padded out unnecessarily with a disappointing climax.
A bit like doing your mum...
