BUG ACADEMY
Faceboook | Tweeter




Bug Academy is the only school for insects in the world. It is also a training center where insects become faster, stronger, smarter. Through a series of lessons and exercises, insects are trained in various life situations such as herding, extinguishing fire, delivering packages, fixing plumbing leaks, space flight and many more. In addition to practical classes, there are also artistic classes, such as playing musical instruments, painting or dancing.

Features:
  • Different types of insects, each with its own unique ability. For example, Flies with their tiny sticky tongues can grab and lift objects; Fireflies with their glowing butts illuminate even the darkest corners; or small, hardworking Bees able to build everything their Queen will command them to.
  • Swarm mechanics - insects have very strong family bonds, they like to stick together. This allows you to control even a dozen insects at a time. Thanks to this group of Flies can lift that what is to heavy for one Fly. Cooperation is the key!
  • Various and interesting tasks - moving services, deliveries, bridge constructions, extinguishing fires, mining, historical reenactment, plumbing services, cooking, painting, playing the piano, and much more.
  • Humor - have you ever seen a swarm of flies trying to deliver a fridge to the 4th floor? Hilarious!

Hi!
I added a new theme to the game - city.

In Bug Academy insects are being prepared for various real life situations. In this scenario group of flies are working as delivery guys. Client ordered a fridge and wants it to be delivered right to his kitchen.

Here's gif:

I agree that the flies delivering the fridge look hilarious. That is, however, a good thing!

This game looks cute, hilarious and awesome at the same time, the animation/physics of the flies carrying objects is really on point!

Really looking forward to more updates.

New update - fireflies and dark caves.
Fireflies glow and can illuminate dark places. In this case dark cave, where 3 fireflies were trapped. They have to find a way to the surface.

Variation of fridge delivery level. It is late, it is dark and flies got some fireflies to help and iluminate the way.

New scenario: similar to the test lab but with lights off. Fortunately we have emergency power, so all the doors and buttons are working, and there are some glowing cubes Smiley

This looks very intriguing! When there are multiple bugs, are you controlling the whole swarm? Or does the swarm follow one leader bug that you are controlling?

Both actually Smiley
Each bug is controllable and when you press wing key then all the bugs flap their wings. But there is a "main bug". Camera follows it and all other bugs are being pulled to it, so that they stay together.
