Challenging, but I like the originality of the idea behind the gameplay mechanics. The music is also nice. :)

It was a lot of fun playing this on stream, glad I managed to get a silver medal! The fact that the music cuts out when the bug is killed is pretty hilarious lol.

Developer

Im glad you liked the game! ;)

Silver medal, hehe. Oh, I also used GDevelop for my game... I like the mechanics, and itΒ΄s really challenging. Some minor bugs (and ones in the game XDD), but nicely done. I liked it.

Im glad you liked the game ;)
The bugs will be fixed in a post jam version of the game.

hahah), fun little game, first I can't do something better then "paper medal" but a little later my best was only "silver" ))))

by the way only little thing that missing is music, I thing if there was something, it would have more fan, better atmosphere

good job! πŸ˜πŸ‘

Developer

Thanks for rating and commenting :)
The game has a bug with incorrectly calculating the medals + the score requirements are a little tough (thats why i added a screenshot with the scores so people could calculate their score correctly and get the correct medal)
There is music in both title screen and the main game, but takes very lil time to start, the web build does have working music so there may be something wrong on your end?
Either way, the bugs will be fixed in a post jam release ;)

even so I grab like "Silver"πŸ˜…, I don't so good at thisπŸ˜…πŸ˜…πŸ˜…

About music don't know, I now  was try again but no, sound effects exist (like when clicking button on menu....), and on other pages also, but music no πŸ˜“

but sure it will be fixed in the future 😁)))

good luck with that!

I really like the concept, but it was hard to move at all without falling off the screen or jumping into a leaf.  Regardless, it was fun.  Well done!

Developer

Thanks for the comment! I will try to do something about the movement in a post-jam version of the game ;)
