Use of the limitation
I incorporated the limitation "there is no ground" by having a spider hang above ground to catch flies.
Cookies eaten
I ate zero cookies unfortunately.

Very simple mechanics, chilling game!
Nice game with simple mechanics, I liked it. Can you please play my game and tell me how it is?
Good Game! After I understood the controls I was able to dive in and have fun. While not intentional spamming the space is the most effective way of catching flies and it was the most pleasing way to do it too. Looked like the spider was munching down on them, good job!
really fun game! although I need to jam my space button to catch the fly, but overall it is cool! also, I wonder why the fly looks like cheese :P
maybe just me?
Thanks for playing! I agree that jamming the space button is optimal but not intentionally lol. And yeah, I've gotten cheese wheels and pacmans but they're supposed to be fireflies haha. I didn't really have the energy to change them so that's why they're like that.
fun game. Pretty simple to pick up, I like the choice of ambiance instead of music. Good use of the limitation too and the basic shape graphics are a nice classic touch, I'm pretty sure complicated graphics would look cheap with this sort of game, but this really works well.
One small gripe is that I wasn't sure what caused me to lose lifes? Maybe I'm just a bit slow today and I know the description said "don't let them get away" but I didn't know that would cause me to lose a life. I intuitively though that since I'm eating the flies that me losing lives is somehow related to getting hungry and not eating enough, but that wasn't the case :D I figured it out on my 3rd attempt, but still, maybe if there was some sort of effect, like the fly going red for a second or something when hitting the edge, that would work as a good hint?
Thanks for the feedback! I'm glad you liked the aesthetic. I originally thought about making a hungry bar but got tired and wanted to do something more simple lol. I agree that it could use more clarification, I'll keep that in mind for any updates or a future project!
The fly hitboxes are wayy too small, other than that a fun game!
Nice gaming machines simulator !
Quite fun and chill game. Got 570. It gets really difficult later on when the flies become faster.
Easy to pick up and play! Reminds me of an old-school arcade game or Atari game!
Thanks for playing! I was inspired by claw machines I used to play at arcades so I'm glad you felt that inspiration!
Quick & fun game! I truly appreciate the style of the minimal color palette. The character & targets really popped, easy replayability.
Thank you for playing! I appreciate your comment on the color palette, it's pretty close to what I imagined in my head when coming up with the idea so I'm happy with it too!
