Anyways the cons were the cannon controlls were a little stiff and it was kinda hard to play the flys move to fast i think.

Suddenly, hungry flies appear to eat it, but  they are smart and can quickly evolve and learn how to escape from the bubbles. It's up to you to blow them up before they eat all your yummy cake.\r\n\r\n\r\n## Controls\r\n\r\n- Mouse Move: Move bubble gun towards the flies\r\n- Left Mouse Click: Fire\r\n- Right Mouse Click: Explode\r\n\r\n## Development Notes\r\n\r\nMy intention was to place a kitchen window as background image and to place a cake by the windowsill, so the flies could come through the window and eat the cake, as the name of the game says. However, the short time would not let me do it.\r\n\r\nI took the theme to the letter and the evolution is in the behavior of the flies, i.e. their behavior evolves as the time passes by.\r\n\r\nNOTE: Google Chrome or Firefox is strongly recommended!\r\n\r\n## Contact\r\n\r\n* Email: renato.ppontes at gmail dot com\r\n* Site: http:\/\/inf.ufrgs.br\/~rppereira\r\n* Facebook: https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/renato.ppontes\r\n\r\n## Acknowledgements\r\n\r\n* Voice By Carolina Vidotto Pyramo <3 (https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/carolina.vidottopyramo)<\/p>","title":"Hungry Flies"}
