Good job. I think it would be cool to have a score multiplier on maximum difficulty, because otherwise it's almost impossible to score a lot of points there.

Good job, this game lacks a leaderboard and ESC during the game)

Nice approach, I like it!

It's a good attempt for an early game. Fits the theme quite well with an ant. It is however quite basic and graphically not amazing. Additionally the pileup of vacuums late game leads to a lot of noise at once. With practice and further learning, you may be able to do something of greater scope next time.
Scores:
Easy: 90.3
Normal: 61.3
Suck: 28.5
I also like how it's highest difficulty is called suction.

Если это действительно твой первый месяц разработки игр, то это очень хороший результат!) По геймплею у меня только одно замечание: Я бы не стал замедлять игрока при получении урона и сделал бы неуязвимость больше

Really well made game, especially so for the first jam entry. Simple, but fun and addictive game loop, catchy music and that ant does have some cool shades! I appreciate having multiple difficulty levels. When you really get into it after a couple of learning tries it starts feeling almost like a dance.
Great job!
This is probably not a very good high score, but it's the best I could get after a couple of tries.

You got the scope figured out, that's already a huge plus. Many (me included) started their first jam game with way too many planned features... Well done!

Nice game for being your first one! Can't really get more than 65 on normal as after a while the vacuums coming from vertical trajectories become just impossible to avoid, for me at least. Anyway the tension in the end gets high, which is definitely good!

Clever idea. Perhaps gameplay wise it could have more content but otherwise well managed for first submission having decent graphics, gameplay, menus, sfx and music. Great job!
Liked it so far! :smile: But I was able to walk over the gray area which was a little irritating.
