Love the art style!

Thank you!

Nice game. I did get a memory exception error half way through first play through.

Developer

Thank you for playing! We'll fix the crash after the jam

Submitted

I was not expected the music, but it got me hyped up

Developer

Thanks!

Submitted

I like the concept a lot. Very very cool, and the execution was great as well. Only thing I could've wished for was more explanations on things. Felt like a description over the moves you hover over would've been fantastic. Great job!

Developer

Thank you so much! We plan to improve UI after the jam to make things clear, like showing number of health and damage and so on. Thank you for playing!

Submitted

Nice game for the jam. The art and music do stand out!

Developer

Thank you!

Unfortunately, the game was crashing for me at the second main fight, but I really like the game! It's a cool concept and I look forward to playing more! I love the artwork and the cute bugs.

Developer(+1)

Thank you! We'll fix it after the jam. Second main fight is last for now, but we'll surely add more levels later.

Submitted

Really cool idea! I think i run into some bugs (well, it wasn't suposed to be a pun sorry haha). But the art is amazing! And i'm pretty sure i will love this game after i play a couple more times, since i like tiny bugs world. 

My team games is about bugs as well :D

Developer

Thanks! Yes, we're waiting for the end of jam to finally fix everything.. We played your game - it's really cool!

Submitted

I really like this. One of the best games I have rated. Only 3 problems I had:

  • -The player doesn't turn when moving in directions other than up during the calm phase.
  • There was a softlock/crash during the second level after I swapped an insect (blue moth) onto another (grasshopper) and had no other turns but couldn't continue because the enemies didn't go. Audio was still playing. 
  • There weren't enough actions to take during the second calm phase, resulting in me having done every possible action and not having enough attention to start the fight. I had to resort to moving back and forth repeatedly to farm up like 200 more attention. Either that or I was missing something (I didn't get pick any more fights than I had to for progression, don't know if that contributed).

Other than those issues, this game has potential to be expanded upon after the jam into a full Steam release and become a real game with minimal effort. Fantastic job!

Developer

Thank you so much! We'll add character rotation after the jam. And thanks for reporting a problem, we'll try to reproduce and fix it. About attention level - it needs some rework for sure, we'll try to improve it. Thanks again for playing and for detailed feedback!

The insect theme is really cool and unique. I feel like it wasn't clear what was going on in the game at times, for example in the second phase I couldn't interact with the other bugs in the second level, but I'm not sure if there's just a 2 bug party limit or something else was going on.

Developer

Thank you for playing! There is no limit, probably you didn't have enough resources for taking other bugs in the party. Or we just have another bug in code.. We'll check, thank you for reporting the problem. We'll make some UI/UX changes to show more info after the jam.

Submitted

Building up a party of bugs to fight other bugs is pretty cool.

Developer

Thanks!

Submitted

I loved the art ! Sadly the game crashed during the boss fight :/

Developer(+1)

Thanks! We'll fix the crash after the jam, sorry for spoiled experience

Submitted

Beautiful game, simple concept but very well executed, nice work!

Developer

Thank you for the kind words!

Submitted

This was a cool one! Unfortunately, It didn't run too smoothly for me, but I still enjoyed the gameplay loop and the combat system. I like the concept and the art direction too,

Developer

Thank you for playing!

Submitted

Simple and fun game :)

Developer

Thank you!

Submitted

sadly game crashed in end battle,

loved the explorasion, battle was a little bit too easy with the t attack of the butterfly

but bonus points for butterflies using tornados, as they shoud.

Developer

Thank you!

Submitted

This was different, but really enjoyable! Solid submission.

Developer(+1)

Thank you!

Submitted

The art looks great, really nice idea, a little far from the theme I expected.

I would have loved if the bugs rotated while flying, it broke the immersion, but the assets and world building is great.

Keep it up!

Developer(+1)

Thank you! We plan to add better animations and character rotation after the jam.

Developer

Thank you!

Submitted

Interesting game, you fly around the jungle and interact with other animals, music and sound fx are all very good,

turn based combat is also well made, well done

Here is my game if anyone wants to try:

Thank you so much!

Your game is really cool) We enjoyed playing it.

Submitted

Nice game.

I also got an Uncaught RuntimeError: memory access out of bounds. It was web build.  It's a nice turn-based game.

Developer

Thank you for playing! This error appears during the last fght, so I'm really not sure if it's eligible to fix during the jam... but we'll surely fix it after, and add more levels.
