About LoveBug

LoveBug is a dating sim parody where you get the opportunity to date young game developers at a game jam. Your goal is to finish a game project in just one weekend while teaming up with a bunch of strangers and fighting bugs late into the night powered only by coffee and passion for games. Should you be spending precious development time flirting? Maybe not, but who cares as long as you have fun! Will you finish your game? Will you find love? Will you survive your first game jam? Or will game dev will be the game death of you?

LoveBug is short and sweet; it'll only take one evening to play through once and several to finish all the routes. Perfect for your busy game dev schedule! ;)

Get a glimpse into the mysterious world of game development through the eyes of a novice game designer - or if you're already a game industry veteran, enjoy a relatable game jam experience and bad game dev humor!

Features:
3 love interests: Designer-kun, Artist-chan and Coder-senpai!
Also starring Animator-senpai, Producer-san and other supporting players.
Different endings based on your choices...
Exciting battle gameplay against them mean, mean bugs!
Lots of quality game dev humor!
A gender neutral protagonist!

The story and characters are based on the life and tales of LoveBug developers' own game jam experiences and are not meant to represent the whole of game industry, which is constantly growing and developing as a community.

This game is dedicated to Xamk's Game Design degree.

Having participated in a couple of game jams myself, I found this visual novel accurate and very entertaining. Don't expect a long game, but it's cute and fun. Well worth a couple of bucks!

This game is great! Five bucks for a solid visual novel with interesting gameplay and endearing characters is a steal. It's also fast and easy to replay it if you want to romance a different character, which I appreciate. Go check it out, and also take a look at their other game Your Royal Gayness if you enjoyed this one.

Short and sweet is exactly it! This game is hilarious and I absolutely love it. If you ever participated in a game jam or if you at least exsist in the circles of aspiring game creators, PLAY THIS, it's hysterical, it looks so SO good and it's interesting to play. A number of amazing characters (psst there's also a secret one), a twist villain (WHAAAT), exquisite game design and unstoppable punnery - what more could you ask? Suport your local mom and mom game company by purchasing this charming dating sim, do yourself a favour, you deserve it fellow Kouhai!

LoveBug is like an inside joke that I am not privy to understanding. It’s quirky and at times amusing, but mostly I am left feeling confused.

Cute, colorful and mildly amusing. Wait for it on sale, it really is short.
