The Queen Riding Insects

As of now, the game description looks like it was a prompt for chat GPT to use to make the real description. Buggy, lack of direction, IMHO not worth $2. Maybe a free icth.io game until it gets more polished. Also played 10 minutes. and no insects were seen. AND the water kills you quick, and to respawn you have to ALT+F4 and reload.

I finished this, and while it's not great, I do wanna detail some things for the bad game enthusiasts: You can save and restart from a menu with 'esc.' Problem is, it triggers every frame, so each time you press 'esc' you have a 50% chance it actually stays up by the time you release the key. Saving is also broken, but in such a way that you can easily manipulate it. It only saves your location and bead count. If you reload after dying, you'll load with 0 health. But if you start a new game and then reload, you'll have full health. You can also just reset anytime to "warp" back to the starting location. You don't lose anything items you've collected by doing this. However, make sure you save before you close the game, as that is the only thing that can actually make you lose progress. If you see an incline (even if it's 89.999 degrees), you can jump up it. In most games, this would be unintentional. But in this game, it's actually required to access some locations (including the very first dungeon). You move incredibly slowly compared to the size of the map. Thankfully, there's a ridable beetle near the wasp nest that moves significantly faster and has a very high jump. From the new game spawn location, it's to the right, past a cliff and a fort (which is also another "dungeon") There are 2 healing flasks you can find. Both have unlimited uses, but the one under the giant tree at the map's center also grants you immunity to water damage. This makes the game much less painful. I suggest grabbing it immediately. Weapons always have active hitboxes on the blades. Most of my "fighting" was running circles around enemies while holding my spear and "hitting" them every time they made contact with the tip. This actually ended up with a higher hitrate than attempting to use attacks, since the attack animations mostly move the weapon anywhere but in front if you. Finally, the bird is the worst of all the bosses. It seems to only be affected by the bow, which uses the worst aiming system I've ever had the misfortune of using. It also flies out of rrach between 3 points, with a random chance to come attack you once it gets to one of these points. However, it can also just bug out and freeze at a point. You either then have to wait until it unfreezes (which may be a few seconds or never), or hit it with the bow (much easier said than done).
