An Insect's Adventure 2.0

Created By:

Well, it's been about a year sience I've submitted my first game, a metroidvania action sidescroller called An Insect's Adventure. It was about a little bug named Bugsey who has a giant hammer and got lost in an enormous cavern full of spiders, and you had to collect powerups and climb to the top of the cavern to go back home and beat the game.

When I look at that game now, I feel extremely unsatisfied, mostly due to the extremely sloppy graphics, SFX and engine. I knew I could've done better but I submitted it anyway, blinded by the feeling of false success and sheer boredom. It then got an even sloppier sequal where Bugsey tries to destroy an alien inside a meteor that's trying to consume the planet.

Anyway, near the end of last summer, I decided to begin remaking the first Insect Adventure and combine it with the second one, but with much better graphics and sound. That's this game here. It also introduces many more things, like wall jumping, health expansions, cutscenes, as well as Bugsey's friend Nobody, who is a chubby blonde robot girl with an enormous hairdo. I highly recommend it to anyone who wants to play a side-scroller that tries something different every once in a while, and feedback is always recommended too.
