I really like the mechanics of having to learn and remember which bug does what :)
One thing I'd suggest is making the bug icons more different between each other for accessibility, like "BUG-A", "BUG-B", etc (colorblind people could have trouble telling the bugs apart).

File FixersThis is one of my favorite games from the jam so far. I appreciate that you took the time to make it compatible with mobile/touch devices (I played it on my phone just because I could). I really like the Atari art/sound aesthetics. The collection and distance features makes the game that much more addicting. You've done a great job, and hope you keep creating games because you have a great sense at how to make a game enjoyable to play.
My only wish is that there was a little more variety in obstacles as you progress (maybe I didn't get far enough), but I get it's a game jam and sometimes you need to just ship an MVP.
Excellent work!

Actias: The Path of LightI might be wrong but I think it would benefit from a couple of coyote frames. Other than that, it's pretty good. I suck at it, but that's on me.

Unhandled::ExceptionJumping is kind of glitchy. The big boy powerup almost always kills me instantly and the one that jumps automatically is kind of pointless and annoying. The gameplay gets boring pretty quickly but it's fun trying to stack as many collectable's effects as possible for a few minutes. I'm not sure why but I find all the audio incredibly annoying. All in all it was very good with the time we were given but I think a couple things went overlooked.
