Bug Bytes is a single-button orbital defense game where exploding bugs is mandatory.
Shoot-to-get upgrades, and shoot enemies to complete waves! Survive as long as possible to keep the bugs at bay!

The game is in very early alpha, it may not be fun, it may have bugs (Computer ones! Not ones you have to explode) and that's ok. Contact Camille Leon on discord if you find something, wanna change something, or wanna add something. Remember to unzip the .zip before running the game!
CONTROLS:
ONE BUTTON: ANY BUTTON, MOUSE BUTTONS, KEYBOARD BUTTONS, WHATEVER! SINGULAR INPUT!

love zapping bugs. extremely polished little arcade game. the bugs are so cute! 🥺
feedback:
- when lots of bombs go off the "hit-pause" sometimes gets so extreme it starts to look like lag instead of "juicy game."
- when the game over screen popped up i instantly dismissed it because i was too busy spamming the shoot button near the end. some sort of "prevent button push buffer" would be nice so i can reflect on my performance.
lovely little game. i hope y'all continue to make things. there's a lot of talent here.

Wow! Very simple yet very addictive! Any chance of offering full screen support?

Your game is really cool! Nice game feel, makes me feel good crushing them bugs.
My favourite part is when the bugs byte the dust hehe. It's fun and challenging!
