A GOOD SHIT! )

Think the spider needs to move a bit more randomly but the enlarged hit box is a good way to tell the player to not be hasty

I like the simplicity, the sound effects, and the idea! I think it could benefit from a title screen, more levels, and some background music- perhaps chiptune.

I agree with @jesse-martin; the spider's random movement will make the game way more interesting. Also, maybe make the leaf a bit more leafy in shape? Otherwise, good job — congrats!

Awesome game! I felt that the hitboxes could be improved on maybe using the sprite itself instead of box collision. Congrats on completing the jam

A nice simple concept. There's not much challenge with the spider's path being predictable, perhaps adding a timer would encourage the player to take more risks.

A nice simple game, that works really well. It feels a bit to easy to be really fun, and the spider just makes you go in circles. I really like the simple art style though. :)

Nice simple art style (would have liked the bugs to be a bit bigger). After the first few tries (to work out the mechanics) it gets a bit easy though.

I fell off the page, but I liked it

Nice simple game :)

Nice and simple. Congrats on your first Ludum Dare jam :)

One 'bug' I'll call out: the randomness of the 'pest' placement sometimes lead to getting multiple points just by the pests spawning right on the player ladybug.

You could tweak that a little with a quick collision check first before placing, just to make it slightly more challenging.

But otherwise, nice and simple. I dig it :)

Agreed with previous comments. The spider doesn't really pose any challenge. I'd make it move randomly, or chase you or compete for prey. Also the collision box is a little too big.

I liked the game, simple and nice, but I would like it to be a bit more difficult and challenging. The placement of the "pests" and the spider's movements are a bit too predictable, which make the game not as fun as it could have been. Overall, good job. Congrats! :)

@davidsheadgames Thanks so much for the feedback and suggestions to make the game better!

Hi Tharinda and welcome to your first Ludum Dare game jam! :). Nice first try, simplicity, animations. I even lost a few times in the beginning because I see the collider is not precise enough and it is more like a rectangle around the spider. I would suggest some improvements if you would like to hone your skills further: - make the spider move in a random direction - make the shrink animation when you fall - you can go further like, make levels, obstacles (walls), more spiders or other creatures ;)

Have fun!
