We ended up with similar interpretations of the theme. The cleaning mechanic was interesting. I think especially for a game jam game you can ramp up the difficulty quicker to make it more intense sooner. Your art is nicely polished and cool that you got the reliability in there with the upgrades.

The gameplay was quite boring and (at least for me) the music didn't work, but there is a nice art.

It fits the theme and is easy to pick up on. I noticed you can kill the bugs with the handle of the swatter, that might be worth fixing if you decide to polish it. Also a sound effect when you hit the bugs would add as would a fire crackle. It was good concept and I hope you keep making games. Cheers!

The premise fits the theme nicely, but the game runs like garbage after a few minutes of play. I also found a game breaking bug where you can infinitely clean off the campfire for points.

Fits the theme and gameplay is simple.

I enjoyed the game! It is fun and fits the theme. I think that upgrades could be a little bit less expensive, but it's not that important)
