Did you enjoy the jam? Is there anything you'd change if you could start over?
Yes, it was lots of fun and a good learning experience. It really helped push our boundaries on what we thought we could do! I wouldn't change it, but I would've liked a little more time!

Aren't you awesome for being creative and taking part?

Yes

I enjoyed this! THe music was nice and relaxed, and the idea of looking around and catching the buggos was chill. I appreciate there were things you didn't get to finish, but you can see the direction and intent and I liked it!

Very chill in both gameplay, graphics, and music. 

I did seem to encounter a bug (no pun intended!) where if I scroll a few times left and right the net stops swinging, and I can’t catch more bugs.

Lots of room to take the concept further. Well done!

BUGS! It took be a bit to get handle on the hit box for collection. I also didn't realize at first that I could scroll left and right. Love the art, fantastic lady beetle. It would have been fun to have to chase the bees more, I seemed to always catch them loitering around. Music pairs great. I only ran out of capacity once, otherwise didn't seem to need the upgrades, as I would catch some and then there would be enough of a lull that would cause me to go back to the barn to sell. Some visual feedback letting you know you are at capacity would be good. (Apologies for any obvious suggestions that you just didn't have time to get to during the jam, I can sympathize with not having enough time to complete everything)
