I really enjoyed it. Looks good, and is easy to get started.
A couple of concerns:
1. The hint to press x for the first bug looks like a close button and not a hint to press a key. Maybe this can be changed, or maybe I am just dumb.
2. The game is short (I finished first time in like 2 minutes)! I wanted to play more XD For a game jam game I think it is good to have around 5+ minutes of gameplay. So you did a good job with it in that I want to play more. As a post jam update I would consider adding like 10-20 more levels and one or two more bug types.
thank you! I have 3 more bug types planned already (: how would you make the x tutorial button then?
I got stuck in the level where the door is at the top. But I must say this is a really cool game jam submission. I'll feature this game in a video in my channel.
Anyway, what's the key of that level?
PM me on the discord, Pirhana#6433, I will tell you there, to not spoil. And thank you for the featuring!
The puzzles were super fun and well designed!! I really liked the fact that the music always had the same melody, but the instruments changed!!! A fantastic game!!! Good job!!!
thank you a lot!
Love it! Really good, challenging puzzles. Enjoyed the music! It was just very short, I hope you're planning on continuing development? Solid 5/5 :)
Such a nice and good puzzles! the only down side was that it was too short :))
Pretty visuals and fun gameplay. Pretty short but that's okay for the jam, i hope you expand this pretty concept later in your life. Good Job!
It is a little too short as I had a great fun on this one :)
Very great level design once you are bugged, it is well mastered.
I love idea, I love how good it is and how good game u can make with it, i love graphics, i like sound. Only thing is the game is just too short. Thats fine for the jam but yeah. Also jump was little weird but that wasnt problem .(and yeah maybe my top 2 favourite now)
thank you for the feedback! what was weird about the jump?
i mean it felt it started bit late. I dont know i mean i run off the platform some times(like i was pressing too late but i think i pressed on right time) before succeening jump
hmm that's strange, i never had this issue. Maybe it is due to the browser version, I know the first level has trouble transitioning for me. Maybe try the downloadable?
i finished game so no need to. It doesnt harm game at all just thing i wanted to say.
You just made my "best of WOWIE JAM 2" list!
Awesome, just incredible!
The art style is amazing, the shovel animation, just like a full commercial game!
The music is perfect for the game, suite it nicely, and the sounds effects are simple and perfect for what it is.
The game is fun, very interesting and do feel like a complete game.
Congratulation, I love it. The only problem is that it's too short :D
wow thank you! I really appreciate the feedback!
A great puzzle game with nice music and beautiful pixel art!
thank you!
Very interesting fun game! Seems very polished aswell!
However, when the controls are strictly arrow keys, it makes it very hard for people that have keyboards without arrow keys to play (me).
there are keyboards without arrow keys? I didn't know that actually! Learned something new! I'll make sure to give the option in the future! Thank you for your feedback
Really nice polished little game. It looks great and is fun.
Good game everything well done nice puzzles.
Nice concept and great visuals!
really good game, I enjoyed the last puzzle! nice tutorial
Wow like the visuals and the overall idea alot! Sadly I got stuck a bit in the last level. But hey in the end I managed to finish it somehow;D Great Job!
I'm happy you ended up finishing the last level :D
Nice game! Unfortunately a bit short, but a nice idea. NICE
thank you!
Fun game! Love mechanics and graphics!
Good game. :D I like the visuals and the idea with the bugs. :) Would play again.
