BALL BUGZ
PRESS KIT | 23 OCTOBER 2026

One ball. A lane full of bugs. Make every bounce count.

Place a bouncing ball in the path of an advancing bug swarm, then build up your defence through repeated attempts. Ball Bugz combines launch angles, persistent ricochets and earned upgrades with increasingly crowded lanes.

CAPTURE NOTES
Captured from the 21 October playable build using automated placement and launches. Campaign clips use earned progression. Map comparisons reuse an unchanged copy of the earned setup. Comparison runs include normal defeats.
The included vertical video is an edited gameplay clip. Studio-owned music was added in editing; it is not a native sound recording. It is not a new original distinct from the studio's existing Short.
