How does your game fit the theme?
A fly’s life is one endless loop — hatch, clean, dodge, eat garbage, maybe fall in love for 12 seconds… die stupidly… repeat. In Buzz and Bustle, every run is the whole messy, ridiculous circle of (fly) life. But the loop isn’t just a mechanic — it’s the heart of the game. Each life is fleeting and absurd, but still worth living to the fullest. You make the most of your seconds, knowing you’ll end up in a spiderweb or swallowed whole… only to be born again. It’s our playful take on the inevitability of cycles — in nature, in games, and in life itself. ♾️🪰

My head fell off as I was cleaning it. 10/10
Love the art style so much, and overall very creative use of the theme :)
haha it's so nice to play as a fly~ Nice theme and artwork!
Art/aesthetic is very good, but the game broke for me when I got to the sidescrolling section; I could move up and down but not left or right so the screen just scrolled past me. Eventually when I got to the end the background left the screen and it was just a skybox lol.
Thanks so much! Our artist will be really happy to hear that.
Sorry about the sidescrolling bug — we’ve removed that broken version, so it shouldn’t happen again. Thanks for letting us know!
