Are these names fun? Cute? Nonsense?
I am trying out this defamiliarized naming scheme for the different species in Insectile. I'd love any feedback!

It's Insect Week!

To celebrate, you should play the Insectile Demo!

It has:

- Ladybugs 🐞

- Caterpillars 🐛

- Crickets 🦗

- and many more cute crawlies!

Okay, this one's silly:

An unsuspecting beach ball you can kick around... but it's actually a pill bug in disguise.

Trying out something new!

I have a long-form video coming out in about an hour. Give it a watch if you like creature collectors, challenge runs, or just hearing devs talk!

Following demo feedback, I've been trying to design more large encounters.

The fireflies are a great example! Lots more space for big bugs!

first batch of color variants done, forgot to post last night

i think imma start changing up the outfits so i dont get bored of this

second batch will come later

It may just be me, but I think this effect is really cute:

With Bubble, you can build a temporary shield. Each tile placed soaks up 1 damage from the next round of attacks. I was inspired by Diving Bell Spiders : )

I'm revising the date of #InsectileContest just a bit!

Since the winner will not be decided until at least Monday morning, I will be accepting submissions through Sunday night : ) There is still plenty of time to design your own puzzlingly-shaped bug!

Placeholder sprite, but I'm working on a new Insectile! I hope they will make the water areas feel much more alive!
