Escape the Bug Screen by angela

made by angela for LD31 (COMPO)

Racoons are bastards! They knocked you out and locked you in your bug screen, but you're smart enough to find your way out.

I tried to do something related to "one screen" that wasn't going to be done 1000 times. So I decided to do an entire game in one bug screen. I wish I'd had time to put in all the dialog and text tips, but I ran out of time. Got it in just under the wire. Hope you find it fun! :)

***UPDATE: Thanks for the feedback. I added a link to the source. I hope no one examines it too carefully, because, 40 hours in, sleep deprived and time panicked - all my variable names and debug statements started to get pretty.... colorful.

Brilliant use of the theme. Point-and-clicks are not naturally the most fun games, but you get big marks for nice graphics and overall creativity.

Firstly, you need source.
Secondly, the theme is used well in this game.
Thirdly, this is one of my fav's will finish it later!

The cup graphic wouldn't load for me the first time, which did stump me. Fortunately refreshing solved the issue.

This point and click didn't have me getting as mad as other ones do, though I did have to consult the walkthrough. I enjoyed this.

Not an easy one. Fortunetly, to combine object, you just have to move an object over another without releasing mouse button, so it helps.
Nice take on the theme.

Hi there. Nice point and click puzzler. Reminds me a bit of Grow although no animations. Managed to defeat the racoons and escape eventually... Shame no sounds... Parks & Rec. fan Pawnee vs. Racoons ? Good job!

I love adventure games! Good to play an entry that seems finished for a change. While I have to admit that burning strange looking coffee was not something I immediately thought of, there were not too many combinations to try out if you're stuck AND you included a walkthrough. Nice game :)

Don't worry about your source. I think we all have written some code that we are not proud of this weekend :)
