This was hard, for sure. The attack has no range, and the flies are pretty relentless all chasing you down at once.
But, what makes it worse is... there's no respawn feature. In order to restart the level, you have to quit and reopen the game. And there's not even a message that says you died, the grasshopper just disappears.
I maybe could have beaten the first level with a few more tries (I managed to get the flies separated by getting them stuck on the terrain) but because of the restart issue, I only ended up playing about three times.
I loved the game's visuals, and the sounds and writing of the opening cutscene were great!
