Funny idea! I included it in my Wowie Jam 2.0 compilation video series, if you’d like to take a look. :)

Submitted

Pretty fun although turning could be a bit smoother.

Submitted

Nice game but hard controls

Submitted

nice but controls are little hard.  )

Submitted

cute game! i found the controls a little difficult but appreciate how it's different than the norm. 

Submitted

Nice game I give it a 6x5 and a 4 (Sound that is) ;-) fits the theme perfectly, so simple, so nice art. Love it

Submitted

I like the style and the idea!

The bug is really a bit too difficult to control though, especially since you need to hit the same object multiple times. Maybe a quicker turn will help - or that you only need to hit the hearts once (and they do less damage).

Submitted

:O This game is really similar to mine! Hey good job on what you did there!

<3 Luv from GlitchyDust <3

Really nice game :) Cute and simple and fun to control. Like someone else said in the comments, it feels like drifting.

Submitted

It's a good game in the topi. Fun to play with an direct and easy game play. Congratulation

Submitted

Very fun game! Having the bug constantly moving adds to the controls IMO. Great job! ^ ^

Submitted

It looks simple but fantastic, the idea is cool, everything just works and fits together. I dont have anything bad to say about this game.

Submitted

A fun little game, I really like the programmer. Good Job!

Developer

Hi, Rasm5252! I'm actually quite  confident of the programmer's pictures, haha.

Submitted

Great little game! Love the movement of the bug. Feels like drifting in a car. Nicely done!

Developer(+1)

Hi, Herald! I thought going straight and moving anywhere easily was a bit too simple. So I added some tweaks to it!

Submitted

I was more fun than I thought. Cleared on my firs try. =D

Developer

Hi, Marxy 37! Wow, on your first try? You're really good on this!

Submitted

"Damn it, the bug got debugged"

Never thought I'd ever say that. It's a fun game, moderately difficult (took me like 4 tries to finish) , and great job overall :)

Developer

Hi, DotStudio! Actually you finished pretty early, compared to me. It takes more time for me to clear it.

Submitted

Excellent flow!

Developer

Hi, (MA)^2! Thanks for playing. Hope you enjoyed it!

Submitted

It took me 14 tries but I FINALLY BEAT IT! It was hard and a lot of fun! Loved it! :D

Developer

Hi, Fenderbate! Grats on completing the game! I think the programmer's last moment's picture is quite a good one.

Submitted

Fun and simple game.

please play my game

Developer

Hi, K.Bouter! Thanks for playing. I'll take a look at your game after work is done.

Submitted

Fun little game! I like how you can see the person's reactions as you destroy more of their programs. Would have liked more control over the bug, a lot of the time I saw an enemy a few seconds before I collided with it, but couldn't avoid it due to the slow rotation. Nice idea!

Developer

Hi, MashUp Games! I got a lot of feedback about bug turning speed. I'll take more time in balancing in my next game. Thanks for your feedback!
