A solid start with the demo, looking forward to see more of the setting in the interim until 2026's release date.

I love the design of the snail in the game!

yo.. we’re both making bug games.. your Insectile, my Bugable… sorry if my games idea was to close to yours..

Brigadeiro @Nightfoxy25Animations

Looks interesting and charming, even though I myself don't like bugs, I'm looking forward to it!

I've heard this is a collection game, I LOVE THOSE!

Insectile Demo (Old)

Version: 1.0.5about 2 months ago

Find bugs, catch bugs, and piece bugs together! Explore a huge, whimsical world as a little mushroom in this clever, turn-based RPG about puzzlingly-shaped insects!

Wishlist on Steam: https://store.steampowered.com/app/3045270/Insectile/

Find Bugs

These creatures we call “Insectiles” hide under every rock and within every crevice! Finding them is not so easy when you are small. Explore giant gardens, uncover secret pathways, and hop across lily pads in search of each and every Insectile!

Catch Bugs

Every Insectile is a potential teammate! Collecting them all will require careful observation of their behavior: Bring tasty snacks, chase energetic crickets, morph new species, and even dodge bowling lemons to grapple these unique creatures!

Piece Bugs Together

Battle against enemy Insectiles with a distinct mixture of puzzle and strategy! Synergize your new Insectile teammates with complementary shapes or abilities. Insectile combat is quick, satisfying, and rewarding of clever combinations!

Working on some more enemy actions for my indie game.

Snails and other Insectiles with shells can now "take cover" which shields a portion of their body.

This is like the Tetris equivalent of a defense buff!

These might be my new favorite Insectiles in the game, movement-wise.

Pop the flowers off their back to open them up for capture!

Let me show you my favorite Insectile: the Locksnail!

In place of doors and keys in a traditional Zelda-like, Locksnails will be scattered around the world. They act as mini-bosses closing off certain areas!

The Insectile Discord is now live!

I am hoping this will really be a place where I can connect to players on a more personal level leading up to the release of the demo (and eventually the full game)!

Join and say "hi"!

Working on animating this NPC from the mushroom vote a while back! Any ideas for her name? "Amanita" might be too on the nose :)

Pay close attention... The bee now bobs up and down while flying!
A subtle change, but cute enough that it's worth sharing! I've attached the original bee reveal for comparison.

I am going to be at Indiana Toy and Comic Expo on August 25th. If you are in the area, come playtest Insectile and get a custom sticker! Can't wait to see you there!
