Bug Free? by TheMoonrise
About the game:
‘Bug Free’ is a farming simulator and a tower defense game. You need to grow and sell crops for money, but you also need them to defend your little farmhouse from nasty bugs.
The challenge is finding the perfect balance between defense and income.

Our team:
We are two students of media and computer science. This is our first Ludum Dare and our first jam overall. Only one of us had experience in game development, but the development went a lot better than expected so we are very proud to share the result with you.
Have fun and good luck facing our bugs! ~ @themoonrise & @remusnomos

We also make our original. Mind to check it out: https://ldjam.com/events/ludum-dare/41/daxua
- Wave timer (e.g. how long until the next wave starts) just so you can prepare
- Crop timer/health (e.g. how long until the crop's fully grown, now it was just guesstimating)
- Quick keys for hammer/shovel/watering can/music (e.g. 1-4 to select respective item, now it was nearly impossible to quickly take care of your crops amidst of a wave since you had to always move the mouse across the screen multiple times to achieve this)
- Some info about different crops (and maybe also differentiate them a bit more, didn't ever manage to place down carrots though)
All in all very well executed game! What is it with the amount of Tower defense / X that spun up during this LD? :D I made also a Tower Def, but combined it with match 3 puzzle (https://ldjam.com/events/ludum-dare/41/runetowers if you're interested to take a look :) )
very nice, I've enjoyed playing your game
My only complaint would be that hitting with the hammer ended up making my finger hurt :P
Keep up the great work!
The hammer sound is really satisfying... **THUD THUD THUD**
The only thing I can complain about is that I think the plants take too much time to grow, so replacing them to earn money becomes really dangerous.
No, seriously! I'm a HUGE Tower Defense guy! so this was a big hit with me xD i enjoyed this for way longer than I should have!
this is like Plants vs zombies x idle game and with bugs xD i really liked this idea.
Art was nice, sound effects were decent.
My main suggestions would be: balance out the audio volume, hammer was too loud compared to background music, should lower the volume of the hammer smash.
plants take maybe a little too long to grow, but that's not really an issue. I still really enjoyed the game.
Awesome entry! Awesome game!
