Played a bit of the game real quick cause it looks lovely and I LOVE all the mechanics and the look of it so far. I had one little issue playing on browser and it's that, for some reason, every time I clicked, the whole game panel would be Selected and turn slightly blue. Idk if this is a me-issue but I thought I'd bring it up lol
It's a common one on pretty much any game capable of being in full screen (but not in abother window). It's probably something to do with itch itself rather then with any of those games.
I usually go over it by playing not in full screen and clickuing a couple of times outside of game window.
Dang, I didn't know it was common, it's never happened to me before. I assumed other games had a blocker to prevent this from happening or something lol. Ah well, in that case no complaints
This was really enjoyable!! I'm addicted to it lmao
One small thing I'd recommend, maybe double check and ask the user if they really want to sell (because I made the mistake of clicking sell right after catching my first emperor moth...), since you also already have the quick select to sell :))
A little bit of feedback on player experience. I invested in the bug catching upgrades except the boots early because I wanted to complete catching all of the bugs in the first area first. Then I found my opponent out classing me. This was fine, I could catch bugs to get candy and level up my bugs. When I did this and finally defeated my opponent it felt great. But when I bought the boots I forgot about the cost to go to the second area and bought another upgrade as well leaving me with exactly 1 coin. So although this was my fault, it felt pretty discouraging to have to repeat the grinding process. Maybe a way to get a very small amount of money without having to battle could avoid this happening.
Absoluteley marvelous game, played the demo for 80 minutes straight, because I was so charmed by everything. Will be buying it! (as soon as I get paid) Also it runs perfectly on the steam deck. Editing my comment just to say that it feels really good to play a game that feels so human, you can feel the care from Doot and Zakku. Great work on everything, drawings included!
Doot,I reccomend you to create a "New Game"button,I would love to replay your game,but im scared to click the "Reset Save" button cause I dont wont to lose my 4 shiny bugs and level 20 bugs:(. A simple file sistem where su can save 3 files or at most 5 would be fantastic,man. If your reading this,even if you will not implement the feature,thank you for giving us one of my favourite games of all time!
Very awesome!!!! Excited for when this releases!!! I had fun trying to win fights with underleveled bugs and a bit of luck! And the bug catching mechanic is really relaxing!!! Great game :3
Love the game! Any game with bug catching in it is obviously a plus, and the art style of this is absolutely charming. And the little descriptions are so cute, too! They all definitely like something a little kid would say. I need more, ASAP! So glad it's coming out next month.
And.... I feel like I totally lucked out getting this, so I gotta brag a bit:
Big Fans of Minami Lane and loved the Demo for Kabuto Park
We played 1.2.1 Through Next Fest and put up a video on YouTube. We're looking forward to playing through the full release!
One Comment is that the area you have to hover over to find the tooltip for the stats bars is the exact size of the bar, which means we almost never found the tooltip. Everything else was completely brilliant from art to music to the core loop. I want more shinies!
This game is amazing! I love everything about it; the music, the adorable artwork and the game mechanics! One small problem though: I can't seem to save the game! It's probably possible but I'm new to itch so I have no idea how to save progress. Someone please help!!
Ps: why not add the atlas moth to the game? It's one of mah favourite bugs and I would love to see it in your artsyle :)
Hey, I'm sorry but the save on the webgl build is a bit messy, it just doesn't work on some browsers. You can download the demo on Steam if you want to have a working save system!
Love the atlas moth too, I can't promise anything but it might make it in the final game 🦋
I played v1.1.1 a little while ago. It is super, super fun! The joy of catching various bugs in different places, the super intense battle mode—it's just a demo, but I feel super satisfied! The opponent’s defense down feels a bit too strong. Since gold coins can only be obtained through battles and are also consumed for movement, if I buy things in the shop until the last moment and run out of coins, I get stuck in the first area until I win the next battle. But, but! It is so fun that I don’t even mind that! I am cheering for the development, meow~! 🐱
Super cute game, I adore the graphics!!! Unfortunately something about the team/collection page makes my computer heat up a lot very fast, none of the other pages do that :0 But to be fair, it is a laptop and an old one at that!
The sound design is lovely too, this is such a cute game :D
Seriously had so much fun with the game! Played it on the phone it was a pretty seamless experience. The animator in me wants to bring all your bugs to life so bad!!!
so cute ~! one thing that i can suggest is adding different sprite for when your opponent loses but i cannot complain about anything else. as a bug collector this a beatiful bug collecting game :) i hope it's all smooth sailing for everyone in the team!

If dev fixes will come back and try again.

ok nvm its a demo makes sense
why do I need to pay 5 bucks for this on steam? I just watched ImCade play it
This was really enjoyable!! I'm addicted to it lmao

I wonder what the bugs pov is, they got kidnapped by a child and now are forced to battle for cash, and get fed candy to make them stronger.
I'm like 20 minutes into this game I'm addicted...
I love Bugs ! very happy i got a shiny bee :D
I'll definitely buy the game on Steam
Very beautiful illustrations. You're doing great
Fun game, very much enjoyed it.
