Describe How Your Entry Fits the Jam's Theme
As a strange insectoid creature, you must demonstrate that you're not just a bug to make your escape. Exploiting a small error is your first step to this. The numerous animation and physics glitches were not intended to be apart of the theme, but perhaps an ironic side effect.

Did you create all of your art/sound/music as a part of the game jam?
Yes

Nice little puzzle game well done for such a short jam. The controls are a bit finicky on the mouse it could use a cinemachine camera with some damping. Overall Very good entry!

Took a while to figure out what to do, but overall it's a pretty good, complete experience. The controls are a little clunky, but the puzzles are well put together. Good job

Sweet idea. At the begining bugs were little frustrating, but after couple of tries and errors I could easly manage to avoid them... Or use them ;)

Adjust aiming and more levels to play, pls!

Short puzzle game, but it makes something really right: Without any further instructions other than the controls you can easily figure out what to do. Was fun to mess up with how you clip with walls when hitting the targets. Also, you need sunglasses for the endpoint man, my screen was so bright I think I got tanned xD. Nice job!
