Very pretty graphically - the pixellated effect on everything gives this a very cool style. Very chill to wander through your world listening out for new bugs

This is a chill little game! Love the art style.

I did notice that with a bit of persistence, it's possible to jump out of the level bounds though: you may want to consider invisible walls to prevent folks from climbing the mountains on the edges.

Oh, the world has such a neat aesthetic! It's impressive how many different bugs there are.

The sound design is superb! The critter names are very cute.

It was a nice surprise when I was suddenly riding that snail. Though I didn't know how to catch the moth. Overall a very good experience :)

I loved this game up until  I saw a huge moth-snail hybrid type bug that made me quit cause I was terrified with a capital T. Cute and sweet. Could do with some quest type objectives and a clearer show of how many bugs are left.

I know exactly what you mean - the idea was to have a very zen style game, so I wouldn't use a counter in the journal per-say, but at the moment, more lines get added to the journal the more bugs you catch! Besides that a bit of story through the journal in terms of the moth and snail boss type bugs I know would really clinch the deal. Something to keep in mind next time :)
