Platforming felt good for each character and the bug facts had me cracking up laughing. Really neat project.

Cute little game and I learnt something :)

I really enjoyed this

Really nice job on the art! I thought it was neat how you incorporated two different bugs with two (relatively) different game genres. Also learned a lot playing this, good work!

thanks! I had really overscoped at first and wanted a third which was a top down flying ladybird with branches and such coming down the screen as one of the levels but struggled to learn it in the time.

Nice art style and good gameplay. It's a pity the music isn't yours.

Thanks! I'm sure one day ill be able to make my own music but 1 step at time for now. 

Awesome game! Never knew facts about ants!

Awesome game liked how the incentive for coins was a fun fact

I really liked this game! There were a bunch of little things that really added up to make it a good time- bug facts when you collected coins, great music, and the option to dance at the bug ball itself. Short but very sweet.

(Edit: Was able to make the ant and grasshopper dance together at the ball, so it's a GOTY contender now.)

The ending made me laugh, and honestly trying to make the two critters shift position was probably one of the best things about this. Platforming was fine though. The sound effects were a bit too loud as well, so i would probably tune that a bit in the future. Good job!
