Pretty nice work with the text and lore.
Nice entry!

My only complaint is bugs attacking me at the dialogue choice
It's a minor point, but I do think having some sort of sound effect or graphical effect for when you get hit or when enemies get hit would make the presentation a lot clearer.
Regardless, congrats on a first LD game well done!
Also, I clicked outside of the game by accident and couldn't figure out how to get it to unpause after that.
Silly idea. Good writing. Good music. HEY LISTEN
I would have liked a little more feedback when taking damage, and had some slightly-easier-to-read font color choice, but other than that it played really well!
I thought it was fun (only thing I'd note is that the hit detection felt a little off), the humor was on point, and mixing shooting space bugs with ro(bo)mancing was a concept I really enjoyed. Great music too. Really cool!
I left my rating of your game, if you can leave your feedback in our game, Witch's Escape.
I hope you continue with the project.
