This game is sick! Super Juicy. One thing though, I think the physics might be capped to the framerate? I run 144fps and the game felt really fast to me.

A game for game developers. Smooth, simple and fun. Little bit too fast-paced for my reaction time

Pretty cute to see the language-specific text that becomes bugs!

Simple and sweet, just the way I like my games! The only thing I found myself wanting was a sound effect when bugs were hit. Other than that, everything looks good, everything feels good, and everything sounds good! There's a whole lot of satisfaction in getting more and more powerups. Nice job!

I quite enjoy games of this type, and this one did not disappoint! I thought the gameplay was very solid and found the powers to be fun.

If there's anything that I could suggest to add, it would probably be an endless mode with an onscreen score so you can see how you're progressing (score tracking would also be cool).

Nice work!

NO NO NO don't make me fall into the exceptions hell again XD - just kidding, I enjoyed and laughed a lot! Loved the concept and giving what coders would relate so much in here and there. Nice work. I wonder the version with sound though!

Developer(+1)

Thanks! The sound should work and can be enabled by pressing the speaker on the splash screen (it’s off by default).

Really fun game. Love the physics on the words, the power ups and music speed tempo changes with gameplay. Works great in the browser. Great experience all round!

Good interpretation on the theme! Very cool that you can choose the programming language you receive errors for. Had fun playing even though it was a bit confusing at first what made me lose progress.

Very fun game! I love the idea of being able to change the programming language and that the text bounces around. I am not quite sure about what the coffee (?) and game controller icon do, but different power-ups are really fun.

Thanks! I tried to make it a bit clearer that the emojis that fall down are distractions, they are just other things that can cause you to lose progress.
