Accurate representation of actual fly swatting. Unfortunately, I never got past round 3, presumably because I am on a touchpad.

Really creative game but after a certain level i had 0 fps

Developer

Thanks! We've fixed the bug that caused this and will push an update after the jam ends

went bit deaf when i slammed 100 flies at once, other than that pretty cool

Developer

I really enjoyed the simplicity of the challenge. Swatting was very satisfying, especially when I'd get the occasional double or triple swat. Good work!

Very cool game!

lmao loved this game! very simple and fun :)
i did struggle to read the text at the start of the game, maybe a less pixely pixel font would work better?
a really fun submission overall, well done!

Thank you! Yeah to be honest I was rushing at the end to make that screen haha, I agree that it's quite hard to read. Thanks for playing and giving feedback.

The game is fun and can addicting.  The sound when you hit a bunch of them all at once is very satisfying.

Developer

Thanks!

It was so satisfing hearing all the flies die all at once, though sad it didnt have more upgrades and more rounds before it crashed.

Thanks for playing! Unfortunately we ran out of time, updates coming after the jam!

Funny how it crashed from the massive number of bugs, wish the balance was a bit better tuned, but overall a bit fun!

Developer

Thanks for playing! Yeah we ran out of time to optimise the bug spawning unfortunately.
