    this game is dripping with style and is so tremendously heartfelt; you can just feel the love the devs poured into this game. it's so tenderlythis game is dripping with style and is so tremendously heartfelt; you can just feel the love the devs poured into this game. it's so tenderly crafted, it somehow feels nostalgic despite being completely new to me. moving around with the little light companion is such a fun mechanic, and the world/sound design is so vibrant, weird, and wonderful.

    this is truly an ode to weird little girls everywhere - to all the kids whose light can't be dimmed even if no one else understands their world, the ones who still believe in magic and collect strange little bugs, plants, and rocks in their lunchboxes. even without the well-designed tricky-but-achievable platforming, it could survive on its charm alone. warm, loving, adorable, bizarre, magical, and just a little bit creepy - there's truly nothing else like it. i have never played anything like this game, and i love it so much     … Expand

Little Bug has a cute gimmick and offers some surprisingly tough platform challenges during its brief runtime. Frequent checkpoints limit any frustration caused by deaths, even if the finale decides to forgo them with an unforgiving gauntlet. Regardless, platforming fans should check out this charming little game when it’s on sale!"

    Possibly one of the more unusual titles I’ve played in quite some time, Little Bug mixes together sometimes-tricky platforming, somePossibly one of the more unusual titles I’ve played in quite some time, Little Bug mixes together sometimes-tricky platforming, some physics-based elements where you’re slinging yourself around, and an unusual story involving a girl trying to track down the elusive cat spirit she encounters and calls Roadkill. It takes a little while to get into full swing, first having you simply work on jumping and some puzzles, then having you develop the skills needed to sling yourself around. When it hits its full stride and allows you to control both Nyah and her friend the light source who acts as the tether point for her to sling around with the more satisfying play takes effect, maximizing both the versatility and the challenge as you try to optimize the positioning of both characters to try to ensure you’re going to fling yourself in the proper direction with sufficient force. It’s certainly a novel experience, you’ll just need to have some patience working out the controls and nuance of everything since the game doesn’t give you much help up-front to get you going. Worth at least giving a look if you like physics-based challenges in particular.
