I won!
The game is pretty fun. The character's animation is hilarious, the pacing of the game is good probably much helped by the beat, the portal is a trap I guess, always got killed there, besides it's weird so I like it, it's a very funny interpretation of the theme. Finally the sequences are all different and cool with the right difficulty so the game is quite fun to play.
This is a cool entry, thanks for sharing, hope your exams went well.
Bugs is a simple game that is simple in style and gameplay. I really liked the feature of hiding under the ground however like another comment here says the fact the underground monsters spawn more of themselves after each reset doesn't seem like an intended mechanic and increase the difficulty for sure. I wish there was a way to fight back either underground or topside against the enemies and projectiles because in the games current state your only goal is to survive which is okay but left me wanting more.
In terms of art and music I think this game does well enough because it leans into that very simple old school arcade style in its art style which works well enough. The music is a bit loud but doesn't detract from the overall game.
Overall this project seems like it just needs more time in development to fix some "bugs" lol other than that it stands well enough to be a simple arcade style game. Well done!
Thank you for the feedback.
there are two things that are quite annoying about this game to me: first is that dying does not remove any new portal creatures. the second is that dying in the portal (which happens pretty much instantly once there are more than 3 of the creatures) sends you back to the tutorial. although im not sure if its meant to be the opposite way of dying always sends you back to the tutorial. not a bad game, just a bit frustrating especially the wave where you are obviously meant to use the portal to avoid the boxes lol
