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!

KOU_SAI @KOU_SAI

This game is so cute and pretty!!! The art, the mechanics, gaaaah! I need to spare money to buy this!

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 wasp stingers 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!

One of the joys of testing is seeing who can bring themselves to pick the "mean" options in dialogue.

It's a good way to weed out the friends who won't be there for me in times of need.

I was inspired by those "noob vs. pro" Minecraft thumbnails I see sometimes. I think this ended up feeling like a mobile game ad but, oh well.

Unlike those ads I think it showcases the gameplay surprisingly well!

I changed the little victory jingle to match the battle music more. Very satisfying, I hope!

Working on portraits for key characters today. I think these will add a LOT of expression to text boxes. Who looks better?

Sorry for the inactivity. I've been drawing moldy fruits and vegetables. Tasty!

In all seriousness, progress on the Insectile demo is going great! It's just all stuff that I'm not quite ready to show yet. Stay tuned!

There's a Mario 64 interview where the developers claimed they wanted the avatar to feel like a little hamster scurrying around.
Given Insectile's unique scale, I'm trying to capture that same cute and frantic feeling... just with puzzle blocks, too :)

I tried my hardest to make even Insectile's button prompts cute. Did it work?

Insectile has these occasional rooms that break from typical RPG level design and are almost more 3D Mario-esc.

They are almost always completely optional, but I think they'll make for excellent variety!
