We are like the bug, small to something else, yet we can achieve our dreams and answer "The Call". "The Call" Towards bigger things. He also ascends at the end.

Art is very nice, though for next time you should make sure that all the assets are scaled to the same dimensions and to turn off anti-aliasing on the sprite sources to prevent uneven pixels and blur. Also, it took me few tries to get what to do since I died immediately after moving on my first several tries.

Cute little game! The controls felt good, but I wish there was some audio to go alongside Leopold's trials.
