Took me a few tries, but I have to say that I really love this game lol.

At first, I was actually a little sad because while I thought the idea was cool, I didn't really have much of a reason to move the ends of the web for a while. Then I played more and realised that hearts could only be collected while moving on the web.

On one hand, I think this is a great idea to incentivise moving the web ends more and to really incentivise moving along them. However, it doesn't really make sense why you wouldn't be able to just collect the hearts by trying to jump through them. Basically I like some of the ideas behind this, but I think this isn't as intuitive as it could've been.

I think the visuals are fantastic and the pixel art is great. That said, I also think the fact that everything in the game effectively has the same colour pallete ( or more specifically, everything has the same combination of colours ) effects readability massively. Over time, all of the projectiles and insects an even the player character just started to blend together at points. This was especially detrimental since the projectiles are almost the same size as the mosquitos.

This also kinda made jumping at insects a little more harder than it really had to be. That said, I do love how you can attack insects this way, and being able to actually screenwarp also opens a lot of options for jumping either towards your web or the insects. Definitely helps in the case of the butterflies ( or maybe they're moths lol ? Not sure ). 

I do think the game gets a little too chaotic as it goes on. Having 10 butterflies firing at once feels a little too unfair, even with screenwarping.

All in all, I think this was actually a pretty damn interesting and well done arcade game. Great stuff here

Wow, nice score! One thing we lacked the time to implement was slowing down time+stopping the spider shots while moving the web, which I think would help for waves with lots of moths typically (the moths were designed to force you to move the web, so it's currently a bit hard to handle them sometimes)
