Fun arcade-y game! A little on the easy side--maybe more debug agents could spawn later on, or maybe a variety of obstacles would help. It was also a little slow at first, but I can get into a groove once it gets to speed.

Nice game! I like the sounds! It would be nice if the difficulty increased up a bit more quickly though.

Simple but fun, quite musical.

lereveur 2012-12-18 05:07

I'm surprised, really.
Thanks for your positive comments.
I was not expecting as much, since I've make this game in the last hours (started in the middle of monday afternoon !), because I was not able to find the bugs source in my first attempt, and because I don't wanted to give up without trying anything else to propose. That's why this game is a little to easy, and needs more tweaks. ^^;

Considering your story above this is a great entry. The sounds made me mute my speakers, and as others have said, the difficulty curve is way too slow, but it's not bad considering you did it in just a few hours.

lereveur 2012-12-18 06:28

Yes it's not bad considering the time spent on it, but it would'nt be fair for the others to include that considerations while rating my entry.
Anyways, thank you, and sorry again for that sounds. ^^

Actually, SFXs sound harsh in the first place but with the speed increasing it starts making a simple melody which is quiet pleasant.

nice audio work!

Sound effects!

Nice game I was pleased with how entertaining it was. I when from trying to collect the bits, to just trying to avoid the debugger:)

Like it simple and direct. Just lacks a little bit of narratives imho :)

Quite simple but great.

moar feature could have been better.

Starts out slow but progresses nicely. The sound effects were a bit annoying but at least they were there. Some Techno music in the background would have been cool. Overall a good game.

Very fun- I can't stop playing it! I also like the fact that it keeps on going- it might be best to simply remove the "level counter" alltogether, *or,* make it more obvious that it's going to speed up ("changing levels")

Nice and simple! I feel the difficulty progression would be more effective if you slowed down the acceleration of the game and added more bugs in there over time. As it was I went from level 2 to level 5, hardly having to move, and then I blinked and I was dead (presumeably a red one), leaving me feeling not very prepared by the previous levels. I like the sound indicators for different enemies, the fact that the player's movement speeds up with the enemies, and the initial game concept. Some really good design there.

Very cool "cyberpunk" aesthetic. Good job!

dray 2012-12-20 23:13

nice little game, i gave you fun points due to your story :p
i made 1260, the paced and difficulty is well done for me. Like it

lereveur 2012-12-20 23:35

Thank you all for your comments. I'm even more surprised since my first comment, and thank you for that too. The next time I hope I will find the good idea at first, and not have to stand by the last minute with bugs on the bad one before.

illugion 2012-12-21 01:03

Fun, simple and addictive mechanic, i like that :D

tdrgames 2012-12-21 03:13

ut oh... 404 error

lereveur 2012-12-21 22:38

@TDRGames : maybe you have to reload this entry page to get the good link, beacause I've changed the path name (I used "LD24" by mystake, since it's "LD25").

demurgos 2013-01-06 20:56

L'idée est simple mais bien éxécutée.

Les graphismes ne sont pas mauvais mais le jeu s'essoufle à la longue.

(Tu m'as piqué l'idée où on incarne un bug :P)

lereveur 2013-01-08 20:04

Merci, et, oui, ce jeu aurait besoin d'une version améliorée histoire de le rendre moins répétitif, seulement j'ai la flemme... :P
Oh, et si ça peut te rassurer, je n'ai regardé aucun jeu avant d'avoir fini le mien - puis, comme je l'ai dit, c'est le déroulement des événements qui m'a conduit à ce choix. Toi au moins c'est l'idée que tu avais au départ... ;)
