Debug
Debug was created in four days as part of GMTK 2024 Game Jam based on the theme "Built to Scale”.
Game Description
"Debug" is an engaging game where you master the art of light to attract mosquitoes and replenish your magical lamp's power. Adjust the lamp’s range, direction, and brightness while avoiding attacks from other insects. Set in a world where the scale of light dictates success, every decision counts. Navigate through increasing challenges and keep your lamp glowing in the shadowy world of "Debug"!
How to play
- Use the flickering light to control the phantom bugs!
- Move the light away to avoid attracting moths.
- Even without light, the beetles will actively attack! Press the spacebar or right-click to concentrate the light!
- Use the light to attract mosquitoes and replenish your power.

Just played 'debug' and I’m seriously impressed! The game offers a satisfying level of challenge that keeps you coming back for more. The design is polished, and it’s clear a lot of thought went into every detail. If you're into games that make you think and have a great time while doing it, give 'debug' a try—you won't be disappointed!
It's challenging, intriguing, and so much fun that I can't stop playing! I absolutely love it and hope there's a player ranking system so I can aim for the top spot and outplay the competition!
Games that are enjoyable to play multiple times
It is great, I love it!
I love the music and the vibes are immaculate. The art is awesome too!
