About Bug Destroyer
In this game you have to smash bugs! all bugs except for red ants. When you smash a bug that you are not supposed to, you lose the game. Ready to play? Good luck!
How to play Bug Destroyer
You can work the whole thing out by playing it. You will want a keyboard for this one — the arrow keys / WASD carry most of it, and the table below has the rest. Portrait layout: hold the phone the way you normally do, or play it centred in the page on desktop. Restarting is instant, so there is no cost to experimenting.
Controls
| Input | Action |
|---|---|
| Mouse | Navigate menus and interact |
| Arrow keys / WASD | Move |
| Spacebar | Primary action |
On mobile: Tap and swipe directly on the screen. The game is built for portrait, so you can play one-handed without rotating your phone.
Why it is worth playing
The appeal here is the loop: a short round, a clear result, and an obvious idea about what to do differently next time. That is the whole pitch, and it is enough.
