Hungry Flies by renatopp
# Hungry Flies
Mommy has just baked a strawberry cake and it's cooling by the kitchen window. Suddenly, hungry flies appear to eat it, but they are smart and can quickly evolve and learn how to escape from the bubbles. It's up to you to blow them up before they eat all your yummy cake.
## Controls
- Mouse Move: Move bubble gun towards the flies
- Left Mouse Click: Fire
- Right Mouse Click: Explode
## Development Notes
My intention was to place a kitchen window as background image and to place a cake by the windowsill, so the flies could come through the window and eat the cake, as the name of the game says. However, the short time would not let me do it.
I took the theme to the letter and the evolution is in the behavior of the flies, i.e. their behavior evolves as the time passes by.
NOTE: Google Chrome or Firefox is strongly recommended!

It gets hard when you use more than one bubble. Nice time management there!
Not a new idea, but the different beahviour of the flies is a fine idea!
Fun to play!
would also be neat if the bubbles bounced off the side-walls like other Snood-like games... the "miss" wouldn't be so catastrophic if you could mop up some second wave flies
A suggestion also: since the player will mostly shoot 1 bubble at a time, why not have it break on the 2nd click rather than another button?
