What a great little game. And nice use of the theme. Whoever did the sound for the hero nailed it, kept wanting to swat something. Game mechanics are nice and simple so easy to pick up and get into. Would like to have some more challenge to the levels and some more baddies but that's being picky. Really nice game.
Good art and funny game
Lovely game with a lovely art style and all very slickly put together. My only complaint is that I found it pretty easy to avoid obstacles so would have liked the difficulty to have increased a little to give it more replay value as I would like to have a reason to replay it. I have to say you totally nailed the annoying mosquito sound effect. You also totally nailed the theme as who knew mosquitos had a use? I also really like the simple control method, I think there is definate scope this game.
Glad you learned something, that was definitely important to us. UmeNoAme did a fantastic job with all the SFX she made them all with her voice with very minimal pitch shifting. We tried to come up with an MVP pretty early on with a definite scope list. More replay value would be good, I agree with you, perhaps if we continued to move on with the project. Thank you for the kind words!
I like the way pixel art is done in this game. Also, like these funny sounds :) I think it's nice game with some challenge.
Cool little game! Damn the mosquitoes bzzzz were anoying. But in a good way!! slightly too easy (I got a 99 score first try without dying). Nice art work too! Love how you implemented the theme with the educational value!
Loved, art and sound are great. Its a fun jam entry and educational! Well done. Could see some more unique levels would be fun. Great work
A cute little game that was a lot of fun. Messed up late into the first run and thought the death sound was amazing. I hate the sound of mosquitos buzzing and it really annoyed me here so very much on point. The mosquito facts are a nice touch at the end.
Made it to the end with 99 on my first try but was definely playing more carefully towards the end. It was fun zipping around, the artwork is lovely and the sound effects were both amusing and suited the game really well.
Very nice - I got quite far but then a random bat destroyed me.. having to restart was a bit of a hit, could really benefit from checkpoints. Lovely game, some tricky timings to get in to the flowers, excellent effort, well done ;)
I did it I got to the end. Fun little game looks very cool.
Sound effects are on point even when annoying thanks you made it quiter a bit :). Also the “I’m already moving sound” <3.
Thank you! UmeNoAme did a great job with the SFX they made us laugh during the development process so much. Bonus points if you can name the inspiration for the "I'm already moving" and the other quips came from. Glad you enjoyed it, that means a lot.
Although I am still strictly anti mosquito, I will now spare a few species, when my plan comes together for getting all mosquitos.
I enjoyed this, managed to get 99 of 99 on my first try! A few of the last ones made me pretty nervous though. The controls are quite forgiving to the player, so I think this could have been a bit harder in the level design (especially if the big flowers were checkpoints... maybe they are? I'll never know).
Well done, it's a cute and fun little experience!
Testing it I definitely died quite a bit, not sure what that says about me! The big flowers weren't checkpoints, but I think that would have been a great idea if the level was longer!
Haha, I've played a LOT of games. :D
Also, could it be that you have framerate-dependent logic? I.e. if you have higher FPS, the game or perhaps just the enemies might be faster for you. My current monitor is 60hz, I used to have a 144hz one and have seen this issue before in jam projects.
75Hz here, I must just be terrible at games even ones I helped make 😂
Apart from feeling like a mosquito is buzzing around me PTSD this was a very fun and harder than it looks. Great artwork too and the little knowledge bites were also a nice touch!
Thank you so much! We were trying to balance the difficulty in the level design for a first level. Perhaps you would have enjoyed the sound of the mosquito dying 😂
Very fun.. and the 'death' sound is THE BEST! hahahah .. excellent job!
Glad you liked it! Ume's sound effects made me chuckle so many times.
