Billy's Bed and Breakfast by ContraBlue

[raw]
made by ContraBlue for Ludum Dare 56 (JAM)

Play as Billy the Business Bug to save your Insect Hotels from Taxes

As I unfortunately had no time left to leave any explantaions, here is how to play the game. When you are on the starting screen just click once on the image. Then click on start. Us W or S to move the camera up and down. click on a card to select it, then click again to send a unit to the position you clicked at.

Please note that you will definetly find some bugs ;)

Also here is the game in WebGL (Don' ask me why I didn't do that in the first place)

Good idea overall!

Would have loved some more indicators like the health and damage of the different ants. Nicely done for someone who had to balance work AND Ludum Dare at the same time :wink:

I have no idea what I need to do. On the flip side: It seems to work fine on linux via wine!

I don't really understand the idea of the game, the story is funny but there seems to be no gameplay

I admit I was drawn in by the cover. The graphic is very delicate!

They ate my bug!!!

I didn't understand what was going on. But! But it's suggestive.

It's sad that the cards appear "just like that." But you can work with it.

Im pretty sure I messed up the IRS with my Beatle boy, not going lie I think I was confused, but I also think I played it right. I like the art style.

It was fun, and I love the art. My ants were beating the IRS, for sure. Idk if my beatle did anything. And I am not sure if the hotel just got absolutely destroyed by insect poison or if I won?
Shout out to Anthony the ant, wouldn't have gotten as far as I did without you!
