This was made for the WOWIE Game Jam 2.0. The theme was "Intentional Bugs", this theme was great because it allowed developers to play with the idea of having bugs you can exploit in the game or having actual bugs in your game! I chose to have ladybugs as the center of my game. I first started coding and came up with the idea of shooting seeds from the player's mouth uncontrollably and you had a flower you didn't want to hurt. I tried a lineless art style with all the ladybugs and it worked pretty well! At the end of the jam I managed to squeeze in a cutscene of the cute little story that went along with the game and I am so happy that I did! One thing is I decided to build a web player 1st. That cost me the trouble of asking for a late submission link but all the work was done within the time limit. I did manage to get it submitted with a web player and a zip file. I learned that if I want a web player, leave a few hours extra for it! This was the 1st time I could actually showcase some story in my games and I am super proud of that!
