This was a fun little game.  My first time through I ventured too far from home and then rested multiple times and soft-locked myself.  Second time around I got everybody back safe.  Cool take on the theme, and very fun.  Feels a little puzzle-y, a little bit of strategy required but without making your head hurt.

This game's style is incredible, too.  The art is great (the spiders are cute, and I love the cyan-and-pink palette choice), and the music is an absolute BOP!

Super fun game.  Great job!

Oooh that was really cool! The art is amazing and I enjoyed the music choice. Really cool colors and vibe.  And a satisfying goal to collect all the spiderlings.

Neat little arcade game! I had fun placing the webs, and I loved the spidey sense. The sound worked well for it, though if you continue tinkering with it, I wonder if you could expand the game to do more (perhaps have enemies drop on your web instead of just losing web sections? you may have to spend web to defend your home - if that's already a feature, I didn't encounter it by Wave 10, so you may consider implementing it earlier). 

Nice job!

Loved the visuals! I had fun gameplay wise as well! My spiderlings were so cool :)

Very cute and fun game! I love the art, sound effects and just the retro vibes overall! Though I was a bit confused on how you interpreted spinning but once I read spin the web, it kinda makes sense xD. Really satisfying mechanic that led me to strategize on my paths properly in order to get to the other spiderlings! Overall, I had a fun time! Great work!

Glad you enjoyed the mechanic! The whole "spinning webs" thing felt like a unique take on the theme so I ran with it.  The names of the spiderlings all start with "Win" as well so it's "spin to win"... which is super silly haha

Thanks for the review!

That's such an awesome Easter egg!

I love this lil game!

I really liked the music it was varied enough to keep enjoying it for quite a while, the art style and colour choice is really good-the lil spider is super cute. The idea of this game is also really great.  I liked how I started to have a lil strategy with not just eating everything at one go but pacing it out in between making webs to make the best use of all that energy.

By the time I the tutorial was over, I already forgot that I was supposed to go look for the spiderlings -- too distracted by wanting to catch flies at first, until I saw a comment here saying they found all spiderlings. So I had to go back, restart, and this time with a goal:

So I do think the tutorial could have been paced out a little more, maybe let the player build the web two rounds or so before explaining that they needed to go look for the spiderlings, just to ensure that the player is not too distracted by all the new info about how to play the game by the time they are reading about the goal of the game.

Overall, love it, I'm really glad I stumbled on your game! It was exactly the kind of game I was looking for tonight.

Hey thanks for the review! Appreciate you coming back for the spiderlings. And I'm sure they do too!

Totally agree on the tutorial!. I think if I were to expand on this game, the role of the spiderlings would be a little more refined. They are kind of just a cheap way to establish checkpoints in the game right now. Would be cool if there was more of  reward to it as well as narrative flow to keep the player immersed.

Love the concept and the color palette! Would love to see more strategy into catching prey! Overall tho, great job!

I love spiders! I rescued all the babies, they are safe and very well fed.

Lovely art style/palette choice. I might have gotten a little lucky but it would've been nice if there was more strategy involved? I was able to get away with just running around and beelining at every spiderling without too much effort into conserving energy/finding bugs, there were perhaps too many "bug" spots.

Great job!

Developer

Thanks! I didn't have any time to balance so I just built it to be more on the easy side. Probably way too easy haha

Thank you for saving the spiderlings!

Cute, fun, enjoyable. Very tactical, but I saved several little spiderlings

I love the color palette on this! Plus, I saved all the spiderlings, I'm kind of a big deal.
