This was quite fun! I liked the rebirth aspect where you get random stats - I admittedly did not notice this until I had killed around 5 or 6 wasps and I found it really interesting. The aesthetics and audio were nice, and I liked how high you were able to jump!

It would have been cool if rebirthing would change your main attack to a different kind, however understandably that would be challenging to make for a game jam. However, it's an idea should you want to expand upon this game later.

Great stuff!

Thank you very much for your comment and glad to know that you enjoyed the game mechanics.

You're right if I wanted to continue the game one day, different attacks would be very cool!

Had a lot of fun playing this, using the rebirth as both the last option to regain your health and gambling your stats is a really good use of the mechanic. Great job!

I had a blast playing your game! At first I was a little confused on how the rebirth mechanic worked, but after a while I got the hang of it! I didn't end up lasting more than 4 minutes though HAHA, but all the combat effects (sound, art, shakes, etc.) really made it super satisfying to kill off the wasps! My monitor became very wasp-infested ;ㅡ ;

I also really like the aesthetic of the background! It's very colorful and vibrant and gorgeous and they color palette works very well! :D Overall, solid game with a great core mechanic!! 

Developer

Thanks a lot ! Very happy that you enjoyed fighting wasps!

Makes me think that maybe I should have put more emphasis on the number of wasps killed rather than the survival time. :)

Nice artwork and the UI is self explaining. It was fun to fight the wasp but once they hunted me to the top of the hill this became our final battleground. Above me was a cloud of wasps and I kept on jumping in and hitting A. I thought I could do that forever, because the yellow bar kept on filling. But after 03:25 the game has ended. 

May you could add something to prevent the player from fighting always at the same spot. I could imagine that the sting could push the player. But not sure if the play then still would be able to attack. 

However: overall a pretty cool and nice looking game :-)

Thanks for your return ! It is true that when we rush into wasps, they quickly become so numerous that we take too many pikes, so we die almost instantly. I note the idea of the spikes that push the player ;)
