It's a fancy ass picnic, and you're invited!!! Well, not really... You're just sitting here trying to eat some veggies and some fool is tryin' to kill your ass! I tell ya man, the world is harsh.

So it's up to you, keep Mr Buzz alive!!!

Uses only a mouse... haven't tried with a trackpad yet, but the mouse is almost certainly WAY better :)

PC and MAC builds available!

This was a solo effort, everything from scratch. Sounds were entirely me and a microphone and audacity. I adore doing sounds for these events, but have to say time got away from me and I have several other funny audio things I just didn't have time to script, BUT... I'm really happy with how this plays.

Some cool design notes:

It's SUPER imporant to remember that your score is the LOWEST of your four scores. Pick your nibbles wisely! :)

If you yank the mouse quickly too far, the fly takes flight, which makes you invulnerable for a second or two, but you miss out on valuable eating time.

Similarly, if you "run into" an attacking arm/swatter on the table after it hits, you'll also take flight, again, losing eating time.

I give you a slight delay before impacts will kill you, to keep it fun.

Oh, and eating speed ramps up over a few seconds, so it's beneficial once you start eating to stay still as the rate increases.

That's about it! Hope you have fun!
