Good game! The audio indicator for the roaches approaching were good! I would have appreciated a little longer reaction time to having the bugs begin eating your biscuits, maybe a healthbar that depletes on your cookies.

Rated yours, here's mine: https://itch.io/jam/brackeys-14/rate/3851574

Interesting idea, but I don't understand a realization. Like you can just circle around a mouse in the cookies and they won't even do anything, so I don't see a "risk" theme and gameplay fun too, just circle mouse till game over. Maybe you will need to tracking a bit of roaches to make idea shine, like TTK 500ms. But I love an idea and it can expand. GJ

Cool idea! The game kinda broken when I played on a 4k monitor but it worked fine on a 1080p. It was a bit frustrating to have to start over after losing a level instead of just restarting that level, and maybe more drastic changes in the level layout would be nice. Overall good work though

Cool idea, great execution. Took me a few tries to get the hang of it but once I did it was smooth sailing. Great job

really fun game enjoyed ita lot 10/10 :D

some future ideas that came to my head whiles playing:

there is these collectables which the player can click to collect, they can be used to get upgrades like bigger light area, faster speed and whatnot, and the added challenge maybe force the player to juggle more stuff which increases replayablilty ig :D

The sound, ambience and everything make me scared lol. In the beginning it's a bit hard to see the roach but it's very fun to play. Great work :)

Cool game! It's silly and endearing, took a little bit to figure out but once I got the hang of it, I was able to get a little further. Nice job!

Cool concept, but it was hard to see the roaches. Good music and art. Well done!

I didn't manage quite to see the roaches - wish the levels were longer, and the roaches slow at first and gradually sped up. Thanks for making this!

Its a bit tough to understand initially, but a very endearing game! Well done!

I love how stupid this looks along with the sounds, sometimes the worse something is, the better it gets.

the game itself is also amazing.
