While the game was fun, it felt a bit easy. Maybe the difficulty level should increase after a while?

I agree with @oa5f, the game is too easy. I would suggest making the bugs come down in lanes similar to the zombies in PvZ. I would also suggest adding a menu/pause screen maybe. Interesting take on the theme btw.

I agree with @oa5f and @mz-dino, the game is too easy. I like the bug art!

Cool little game, I would like to see this be developed more with potentially other power ups or enemies which get harder over time. Good job!

Nice art. Could "win" the game by just clicking fast without aiming. Would have liked to be able to restart without reloading the game.

I actually found the game to be relatively difficult, but maybe I'm just bad at shooting games :-) The music needs a few more loops. I liked the bug animations. Well done!

Got a bit it too repetitive and dull quite fast.

Also the shooting sound effect was really annoying over time.

But the game itself was fun for a bit.

Art was not fancy but did its job :)

Nice job!

The idea is good, but as stated by others, the fact that you can just spam in any direction to win makes the game not interesting.

The art and sounds are nice.

Thanks for the game!

just see a debug window for the missing sound effects?

A nice idea, but gameplay for me consisted just of clicking fast enough without doing anything else. Graphics and sound are good though.

Love the art, but I just click all the time, bugs disappear, should I be doing something else?

The game sounds and looks great for a combo game. The gameplay is very simple, and perhaps even a bit too simple. But okay, I still had fun trying your game.

Nice and simple. I like the different targets, specially the snail :) Could have a bit more challenge though. The targets die, even if the bullet is quite far from them. GG

Nice idea and great art, but as others have said, not challenging enough. You could maybe have some of the enemies not move in a straight line, or having some that need more than 1 hit to kill. Audio was good but the shooting SFX got a bit grating over time.

This is a good start for a game with very nice graphics, animations, and audio. The gameplay is simple, but it's fun trying to shoot the faster bugs because you need to lead your shots a bit. I think if you experiment with different bullet and enemy speeds (think: rocket launcher from Quake!), you can create a pretty fun shooter.

Overall, nice job!

The bugs graphics are quite cute. As many have stated, it does get redundant very quickly. A simple fix could be to increase speed of the insects every minute or 30 seconds that goes by.

After a while, my goal was to let a snail win, but the spider foiled my plans. Anyways, not bad for a compo!
