Game Description
The goal is to smack the bug pictured in the box at the top for each level before the timer runs out, with the amount of other bugs increasing each level until you can't find it in time

How does your game tie into the theme?
The theme ties is because you are smacking bugs or "critters"

Went straight to the hard mode! Reached the score 19 :D But it gets insanely hard after hah.  so many bugs.
Nice little game! 

Developer

Thank you (:

Nice little game, and great job for it being one of your first games! I think it would be nice if the time you had to squash your target would decrease every time you would hit a wrong enemy. Also some juice like a splashed bug would be nice to see. Overall, good job!

Developer

I think that would've been a good idea too. Thank you (:

Scored 22 before my vision went blurry and I failed out, haha. Spotting some of those dark green critters was hard! Great game, simple but fun to play, and I didn’t encounter any bugs except the insects.

My only real suggestion for improvement would be some animations and other feedback to make swatting feel more satisfying, but overall nice work!

Developer

I appreciate the feedback! Yeah the plan was to actually have a different sprite for the smack animation but ran out of time so I just put in a skew effect haha.

This reminded me of one of those mini-games that they'd bundle with the mario ds games where you have to tap on the right character head. Nice entry!

Developer

That was actually the inspiration, was the find Luigi game. But then I also went with the flyswatter idea because of Mario Paint :)
