Fun Game very colorful
Thanks!
Very cool idea! I like how the purple thing makes your wrench not usable.
Thanks mate, I'm glad that you like it!
Took me a few tries to learn not to touch the purple and black texture, great analogy for how bugs can creep into our games and sometimes those bugs may be beautiful butterflies.
If you could kindly play my game as well

I'm glad that my game managed to speak to you. :)
Really nice and simple game! You also polished it very well after the demo you were showing us on your stream, like it :-)
Thanks mate, I appreciate it!
The page's background is not really friendly to the eyes haha
It takes some response time and precision to kill the harmful bugs
the game it's great!
I implemented a similar mechanics in my game, you can check it out
I'm really sorry for the page background, colors on my laptop screen appear washed out and i have a lot of problems when trying to balance them. I'll make sure to fix that later. Thank you for pointing that out and thanks for playing my game, I'm going to play yours as well as soon as i can. :D
nice game! i found it difficult at first but then got better the more i played. overall nice work!
Thanks for giving my game some playtime before it gets clear how to play, I'm glad that you liked it!
Nice idea using the cursor as a way to fend off intruders. I think this is the first time I've seen a game use that as a mechanic before.
Thank you for the comment, i appreciate it.
This is such a cute idea! Definitely a bit difficult at first but I intend to keep playing & get better :)
I'm glad that you liked the game. To be honest i don't really have the feeling for the difficulty anymore because I've played the game myself way too many times while making it. :)
Those sound effect really made the difference!
The difficult should increase foreever, it would be fun :D
I totally agree with your comment. I'll consider updating this game sometime in the future. Thanks. :D
Neat game with many welcome details eg. bugopedia. Trying to understand what controls to press was interesting at first, but I got it figured out soon enough. Well done, very good submission!
I'm glad that my game suits your taste.
A simple yet enjoyable game. The little details are really neat. Good work on this submission!
Thanks man, or should i say, LIVER MAN. I appreciate it.
I think this is a pretty cool game. i got a score of 155, but then the game ended? I still had full life, is there a reason for this?
You probably won the game. If you played on normal then yes.
Ah ok, thanks
When bugs are at the same spot as the features, the game is a bit frustrating. With a bit of level desing magic, you may improve the game. :)
I agree, there is a hidden feature where when you fall down to 2 hp bugs start to eat features. That's the main reason i left them overlap. Thanks for the feedback, i appreciate it.
Neat idea, solid double entendre, unfortunately yeah a little confusing but also sometimes the bug and feature would come in at the same position so you'd have to kill a feature to kill a bug. The glitch squares is a cool mechanic but it's generally not a good idea to make the game unplayable for a portion of time, I think.
Not playing for a portion of time, i understand your point of view and i think you are right, I'll have that in mind when making next game. Thanks for the feedback, i really appreciate it.

This game was difficult at the beginning! Very very very funny. A simple concept very well implemented. The menu system is very complete and polished. An excellent job from every point of view!
Thank you for your comment, i really feel great when someone likes something i made. I'll make sure to check your game when i have time. :)
Fun game! I love the Buggopedia in the menu :) Nice mechanics, I love that you can just swing the mouse around without needing to click. Thanks for saving my wrist. 10/10.
Thank you for your lovely comment. People shall not hurt wrists no more.
It's really fun! I especially love squashing a bunch of bugs with one swipe of the mouse. Great work!
Squish squash dead bug. I'm glad that you liked it.
Nice job
Thanks mate!
I still do not fully understand the game to be honest. I died no matter what I killed. I killed bugs I died. I killed these purple squares -> I died. It was fun when it worked but I think I did something wrong. :D
I see. The butterfly ones are actually friendly and you lose points when killing them. Killing them early might result in you losing the game. It's probably a big mistake on my side that i didn't made tutorial screen more understandable and went for the style that appealed to my eye. Thank you for giving a shot at my game, I appreciate it.
Now I understand! Oof. I was just in a killing spree. Did not even pay attention to which bug I was killing. Thank you for clearing that up. :)
I tried to speak through their color, red for enemies and light blue + baby pink for friendly bugs that later turn out to be features, that was my thought process and the main idea.
Yes, it makes a lot of sense if you write it out like that. I am bad at paying attention to details like that while playing. :( Sorry x)
