A tight, frantic arcade style game. Great pixel art, easy learning curve. Great music. I don't think the game needed the constant buzzing sound effect. Other than that, this was a nicely executed game. Well done!
Thanks for the feedback! We actually implemented a fade in/out for the buzzing based on proximity of the bugs, but after balancing out the spawn rate it ended up that we always wanted bugs on the screen to maintain the pace of the game >_>. In hindsight it probably would have been better to gradually fade it out once you notice the bugs spawning and maybe bring it back in at the end when the spawn rate dramatically increases.
A fun, short, effective tower defense. Good job ^ _ ^
Awesome job for a person who just learned GMS! It working smoothly and well. The idea of lights and bugs is very funny. Nice core gameplay for the tower defense game. I'd love to see where it will go, imagine turrels and different fly swatter types :D
It's simple yet the gameplay is perfectly understandable and loved the education. It was hard for me to kill all the flies but probably you should test on different people who are more accustomed to action games.
TOP music! really interesting and sounds great you got talent!
Pretty nice visuals, fun theme, cool music, very nice and satisfying animations, very well done!
Nice artwork. Everything seems really clean and well put together. If I had to come up with a criticism, it would be that the game could use some more variety - but since this was made under a time constraint for a game jam, I don't think a criticism like that is valid here. This is a good looking and playing prototype.
Great work! I escaped!! The graphics were fantastic! The core game loop was solid and easy to understand! I had a lot of fun playing this! Good job!!
Proud escapee of Bug Planet :)
The bug sounds were totally NOT irritating ;) Rated!
Wow! The difficulty ramped up fast as soon as the beacons were lit! I'm swttin and runnin around, and they're just destroying everything! haha
This is quite a good game, very fun! I think you could make the attacking a bit more engaging but it's tons of fun as it is
Super cute game! Getting the 2nd upgrade with the turrets was a very nice feeling of power! Took awhile to learn that I could just hold to attack, random enemy placements made it a little bit RNG based too. I liked having to manage all the different towers and not just having to focus on the one, very unique! Other additions like more weapons, upgrades, and enemy types would very well make this a nice full official game! Well done!
A really cute Tower defense game. The bugs got really intense by the end. I did find it strange that there wasn't really a reason to worry about the bugs because the player didn't take damage, and the player felt slow near the end of the game. It was really cool and would make for a great web HTML game.
An interesting, dynamic, beautiful game!
Passed the first time! Good job! =)
