The game was good. Though the bugpong level was quite hard. I wasn't able to find a way to figure out how to counter the bug and it was kinda random where the ball hit. I dunno if there was a way to counter those bugs or not, but I think a little meaning to those bugs rather than randomness could have been a better idea... or was there a way to counter the bugs? If there was, I think a little hint could have been helpful. Or was it intended to be played like that only? In that case, I think it's okay.

Though the second game was quite easy and I didn't find any challenge other than the bug going in the opposite direction.

But on the other hand, I liked the starting main menu music, it was good. Also, the quite feeling in the pong game without any music and only with sound effects was nice and chill too. 

Overall, the game might have been a bit hard and confusing to figure out... still I enjoyed the feel of it. Also making a game within 3 days is no joke. You did a great job, well done! :)

Thanks for the feedback

I think it would be a good idea a bug counter, I have already been told that the game does not give many clues if it is intentional or not

Please, do not use rar files for linux builds. They are more annoying to use than simple .zip files.
Also, files starting with a . are hidden by default on Linux. Took me way longer than needed to find the binary to run it.

As for the game itself, I didn't get the point of bugger. Seems like I can go through the walls and that it sometimes doesn't eat the leaves. Going out the screen also doesn't seem to have any negative effects (Or at least I didn't spot them).

As for the pong game, no idea what causes the bug that the ball goes through a peddle and the ball also got stuck one time. No idea if that was intended or not.

Developer

thanks for your feedback

yep that was intended

It was a good idea and a good game !
I have to admit, I had a hard time understanding how the bug in the pong game was created...meh it was hard to play. The bug game though was very fun ! Gound SFX, a bit of a lack of music but that's not important.
Overall, great entry well done !

i like the idea of the bugged pong game! but i must echo some of the feedback others have said and report it feels bad when the ball goes through the paddle. :( i really like the bug game though! i like the bug character too. good job. :)

thnks man yep! maybe I should have tried another less annoying mechanic for pong

I don't like the pong game cuz it just randomly go thro the block so I HATE THAT XD, the bugged game was fine and pretty easy. Overall the game is just a bit frustrating :((

Developer

thanks man Bugged was unplayable in its first version, so I changed that, but I think I didn’t find a good balance

I hated that pong, it pretty much pulls the plug on you after you've got around 5-7 points. The ball just decides to go through the pallet, I hate it xD! IT'S A FEATURE.

The bugged game was fine but damn it was annoying too. Maybe just a little bit more feedback on this one when the bug flips or something, just make it feel a bit responsive (not be responsive because the idea from what I see is that it isn't responsive at all). But yeah.

Developer

Thanks for comment You were lucky in pong, sometimes from the beginning the ball goes through

Well dayum. XD I actually tried to cheese the ball at times where it kind of gets stuck on the sides. I was able to touch it 4-5 times there, it was going to be my strategy for the 20 points. But nope, did that and ball-kun decides to yeet slowly through my pixels to piss me off.
