Budgie's Bug Shop combines short-form incremental gameplay with a quirky premise: catch bugs to fuel a parakeet-staffed shop empire. You'll unlock equipment upgrades and progression-breaking abilities while watching profits compound, though the experience wraps up in roughly two to three hours. Best suited for players seeking a charming, single-session idle game rather than long-term engagement.
About this game
A short incremental game about catching bugs and running a shop filled with parakeets. Upgrade equipment, purchase game-breaking abilities, and maximize the profits of your Budgie-powered empire!

It's a blast, however being able to 100% the game in 83 minutes makes it feel lackluster and kind of disappointing.
I'm going to come off as biased in this review only because I have followed these developers since backing Loddlenauts on Kickstarter. They are wonderful game developers and make really cute indie games. The music is peaceful, the gameplay is fun and straight forward. The ending had me laughing. The UI is visually pleasing. Loved catching bugs in this fun, quick little game! I'd play this game on my phone if I could.
Thanks Ricardo and Jin-Young for another wonderful game
ChangesFixed an issue with incorrect glyph display in the details for the "Superposition" upgrade when playing in French.Added a "Total" counter to the Inventory menu in the shop that represents the total number of bugs you currently have.Bugs with completed Mastery Checklists will now have their names glow gold in the Inventory menu. Their prices will also have a yellow border in the summary screen that appears at the end of every round.-Moon Lagoon
