The controls were very easy to learn and the gameplay got me into the zone!

nice. a counter on how many of the good bugs you got would have lent a bit to replayability. but its a complete entry. nice work.

Fun game. The screen shake is nice and juicy. My highest score was 517 points :)

Great game! I think I squished so many bugs, now my code won't have any lol.

I wish it was made clear beforehand which flies hurt and which flies gave points, but apart from this it was pretty simple and fun,  would love if the difficulty ramped up a bit and maybe in the future you can introduce more enemy types or even power ups, great game though. One thing I noticed is that I could extend a bit beyond the screen and just sit there so perhaps having a way for the player to stop at the edges would be nice, good job :D

Thanks for the feedback! I tried to add a difficulty curve to the game, but it wasn't noticeable enough. :[ In hindsight, I probably should have added the how to play in the game rather than on the Itch page for clarity. I tried blocking the player from going off the screen, but it was causing too many problems so I scrapped it.
