Tristan Cooper, who owns the Twitter account “Can You Pet the Dog?,” never set out to create a social media juggernaut. Developer Dave Crooks is clear: Without Can You Pet The Dog?, the dog would probably remain unpetted to this day. “At some point in Gungeon’s development we briefly discussed letting you pet the dog,” he wrote in an email to The Post. “I appreciate when developers go out of their way to add little touches that might be familiar to dog owners,” wrote Cooper. In ‘Enter the Gungeon,’ the dog thumps their foot on the ground during extended petting sessions.”Ultimately: “Every single pettable video game dog is equally worthy,” said Cooper.
