From Adrian Lafond comes this Flash shooter with a top-down perspective and unique design. Battle Bugs are little electrically charged mechanical bots that require juice to keep going. Control your bot by simply moving the mouse where you want it to walk, click the mouse where you want it to fire its weapon. Enemies will try to get close so they can suck your energy, shoot them before they do. Your battery gauge is in the lower right corner, and when that gets to zero, the game is over. Recharge with battery power-ups when available, as well as more powerful shell ammo. To change weapons, press the space bar.

The game, though a simple shooter, features some very nice animation and special effects. Adrian likes to design and animate bugs and bots, and the game showcases his creatures well. A very nice and simple Flash game that is well-designed and looks great. Click.

Also, check out Adrian's other organisms, including the Insect Shop where you can build and edit your own bugs that animate with parameters you set.
