i had a lot of fun with this game! one thing i found hard was knowing how close to a gunman i could get to without being shot, but overall i really enjoyed collecting bugs and discovering the different things they do to the gunmen! good job!

This can certainly have the potential for a neat idea. The main thing the game struggles with is feedback and providing information. For example I don't know if I'm collecting bugs, or if they're just teleporting around, or if I'm even supposed to, or what's going on. And the agents don't have any telegraphing of their attacks. And if collecting bugs is a good thing, it should feel good! You have pretty good feel elements for death, but it should be the same for your core mechanic.

Thanks for valuable feedback Andrzej! Def gonna make it more juicy to get the yellow bugs as well as making it more clear when you will get hit and so on. I will try to make time to give your game feedback as well (no computer available right now). Cheers!

hard, hard, got the seven then I was shoot ^^. Do you actually have chance to dotch /survive a shoot? 

Developer(+1)

Hi Saturn! Ehm, not really. If you come too close to them (withing a certain circle collider) they will stop, load and shoot you even if you run away. But you CAN make them shoot themselves if you walk past them while they are buggy. Seems like the number one thing I got to be more clear about in this game ^^

Submitted

Would be helpful to explain what the objective is, otherwise awesome work!

Developer

Thank you! Already working on it :)

Submitted

Really liked your game:)

I'll appreciate it a lot if you play mine too :)

Developer

Thanks! As soon as I get to a computer I will! :)

Submitted

fun little game with charming visuals! :)

I just wish there was a way to fend off the bad guys.

Developer (1 edit) (+1)

Hi Fedboi! There is a way! While they are buggy you can walk up to the bad guys and they will shoot themselves instead of you. Sorry, thats not very clear as the game is now.

Submitted

oh I see, I will try again with that knowledge!

Developer

Thanks and good luck! My record is 61 :)

Super simple and fun game to play, and a great example of a good game jam game.

Developer

Thank you dear Aizin! :)

Submitted

My suspicion is that you were limited by your skill, but it just makes the game really funny. The simple animation of the legs is awesome! The game is really difficult though. I managed to get 33 bugs, but that was on a really lucky run; often I only got around 20.

Developer

Thank you dear sir! I am indeed a beginner when it comes to coding . Also, I tried to make the game as simple as possible because of the time pressure. I wanted the game to be quite difficult so played a number of times to see how far I got.. which was to around 50. Did you get that you can make the bad guys shoot themselves when getting close while they are buggy?

Submitted

Nope, I didn't figure out that you can make them shoot themselves. The enemies kill you in one shot, so I'm pretty sure most players will avoid them as much as possible.

Developer

Thanks, that is helpful to know!

Nice job for a jam, realistic features for a finished game ! Cool but hard as hell, couldn't get over 30 bugs, cant dodge the enemies without the specials in the end, making it impossible to finish, is there an hidden trick ? 

For further improvement though : could have better visuals and juicy feebacks, could have small random level variation (obstacles or walls) and other special bugs with new effects and you'll be set for a very good game :)

Developer(+1)

Thank you my green friend! Did you get that the bad guys shoot themselves if you go near them while they are buggy? I'll make that more clear anyhow. Another way is to try to clump them up in the middle as much as possible. It's really hard once they formed a line. I've managed to get past 50 three times, personal record is 61 hehee :). I'll check your game after dinner.

It's like pacman, but with people. Pretty fun.
It would've been good if you explained the mechanics in-game, but I knew what to do whatsoever.

Actually a neat idea. Pretty creative. Good job :)

Developer

Nice, I was going for pacman style.  And yes, I will add more hints of what is going on when you touch the different bugs. Thanks! ^^

Submitted

Simple but fun to play :)

Developer

Thanks!!

Submitted

Developer

Thanks!!

10/10 animations. The music matches the game, and I like the simplicity of the sprites, it's not ground breaking gameplay but still fun. Well done.

Developer

I needed this "pat on the back / I'm proud of you son" - comment so badly. Thank you <3
