Review of A Bug's Life

Actually I beat this game this year and enjoyed my time with it. It’s a short puzzle game where lives are hard to come by so you have to go as far as you can before getting a game over. Like how games used to be. The mechanic is Flick must pick up powerups to his seeds and plant them so they can be upgraded platforms, bouncepads, shields, or berry throws. It’s actually pretty simple. The big downside is that he does not control as well as you might want, and there’s a good difficulty spike with the grasshoppers at the end that I didn’t appreciate. It’s not a bad game though and if you like shovelware I would put it up there.
