BugInMyJamNice game!
It took me way too long to realize that it's donkey kong in a new perspective xD
Btw, I see you have the same audio issues I had with Godot (when played in the browser), I fixed it by downloading the latest 3.3 RC and then set the audio mix rate to really low (seems like the minimum to support all browsers is 8000).
Now this is neat. That funny storyline with the references to Donkey Kong was a really creative and fun use of the limitation!

Bug SpreaderI really enjoyed this. I love how clever it is. And, like Yumehiko mentioned, very Wreck it Ralph. But it also made me think of that old song Code Monkey (and of course Donkey Kong lol)!

I Heart VirusThe game was funny with it's story and entertaining with the barrel-throwing mechanic, but a bit too short for my taste. Maybe add an endless mode? Also, the game lacks the main theme of this jam: bugs.

Both Sides of the BugsI could probably have added an endless mode, yes. I figured if a player wanted to play more they could just play it again.
The theme is present in the form of software bugs, rather than insects. The fact that the player never shows up because they used a bug in the game to skip the level is a major driver of the story.
Also, remember: Mini jam has the theme as optional.
Thanks for playing!
Surprisingly funny and entertaining to play for a short while, well done!

MetamothosisUmmm, I can't play the game because it freezes when I enter the game page. The environment is mac 10.15.7 Catalina, and the browser is Google Chrome.
