I will say, when I first opened up this game, I was not expecting a turn based tactical RPG with resource management elements - but I'm so glad that it was! The gameplay was very fresh, and mechanically very intuitive for me - very straightforward to play and understand.

The art is just beautiful, and the audio choices were great too.

This may have been mentioned before, but I did get a runtime exception when one of my bugs died. But overall this is a strong entry with a lot of good going for it. 

Finally, moths are just the most adorable little critters - love that you chose one for the protagonist.

Cool idea! And the art looks nice!

Sadly I get the following error message at the second battle when one of my bees dies: "RuntimeError: index out of bounds". I tried around 5 times to get there but I always get the same error message ...

Very cute game, the art is fantastic!

The concept is also pretty fun and well executed, well done!

The game’s concept of switching between a calm resource-gathering phase and a boss fight is a fresh take that fits the theme well. The art style is charming, and the monster recruitment adds a fun layer to gameplay. However, the lack of tutorials and some balancing issues, like combat mechanics and field of view, could be improved. The music complements the mood but could use more variety. Overall, it’s a creative and enjoyable game with room for refinement.

Also, check out my game if you have a chance! Thanks!

Loved the game, very different from everything I've seem so far.

The ideia is really cool, at first I didn't see the "attention" diplay, a small tutorial would be a really cool addition to the game.

But overall it is super nice!

I like the aujdio of the attacks and background music .I couldn't figure out what the buttons do. Some tooltips for button would be nice. A tutorial explaning the turn based combat would be nice

The art is really good, the game was fun and interesting, I do like monster-catching games like pokemon but yeah this one has insects and this was pretty fun, just wished there was a little extra juice in the fighting. Great job!

Also curious what you used to make this game

Lovely painted artstyle! I haven't figured out how to beat the pincher beetle, but the turn-based combat is solid!

I loved building my army! Very fun.

Great project, liked the way you applied the theme!

Really cool idea for the theme! I enjoyed recruiting new bugs to fight alongside me and  I think the battle system is cool. I like the art a lot too and the music gives the game a nice vibe. I don't think I have any constructive criticism to offer that hasn't already been mentioned. Great job on this it's cool!

I liked the art quite a bit, I played as a bee which has always been my life goal

Really cool concept, gameplay and art. Really enjoyed playing it. The music has something to do with last of us?

Great art and neat concept. I like gathering things and gathering members of the party. I feel like it is a bit wonky on the balance end for the combat. I think making it so you can see a bit further out and improving the navigation would help with the feel of the game. The vibe is already cool and it could be really good making things feel more natural.

Nice game! The concept is nice and I love the visuals of the insects. I think the best advice I could give you is to spend more time polishing (even if you have to make less content). Buttons should highlight on hover, player should have q small attack animation and sound, hitboxes could be refined, that kind of stuff. Still a nice job overall!

Music was great during boss battles. Abilities were locked when both insects were on the same tile? Great abilities and interaction with the objects. Great entry! 

The art style is very charming and unique, and I can't say that I've seen another game fit the theme in this particular way.  However, I couldn't figure out how the combat worked too well. Otherwise, a fun and unique game!

Awesome art style 🐝
Which game engine did you use?

Interesting concept and very unique, first one to see this kind of game. 

I like the art and animations all perfect and good music to fit in for sure. Tho I was a bit lost in how to play correct the battle phase kinda confused me, so maybe try for another jam to make a good tutorial that helps dumb players like me xD. 

Overall well done, good game!
