What the developers have to say:

Why Early Access?

“While this game is released with all core features implemented, it still lacks depth. Early Access will help gather valuable feedback and guide development in a direction shaped by the community.”

Approximately how long will this game be in Early Access?

“It really depends on community feedback and activity, but it shouldn’t take more than a year.”

How is the full version planned to differ from the Early Access version?

“The full version is planned to include multiple levels and a greater variety of enemies. Missions may also change if there’s strong demand from the community.”

What is the current state of the Early Access version?

“The core game mechanics are implemented, but only one enemy type and one level are currently available.”

Will the game be priced differently during and after Early Access?

“There are no plans to change the price.”

How are you planning on involving the Community in your development process?

“A feedback form and a Discord channel will be available for the community to share feedback and suggest new features.”

About This Game

The museum was spotless. Until it wasn’t.

In Bug Off, you're the last line of defense between priceless artifacts and absolute chaos. Armed with nothing but your slippers, you'll clean up mud, squash bugs, scrub blood, and try to keep fragile relics intact while the mess keeps spreading.

Bug Off is a light, replayable mess-management sim with a satisfying loop and no pressure to be perfect. There’s no game over. Just you, the dirt, and the rapidly escalating consequences of ignoring it.

Features

  • Slipper-Based Cleaning & CombatSwipe, stomp, and scrub with simple, tactile controls. Every mess is your responsibility and every bug is in your way.

  • Dynamic Dirt System: Mud, blood, and trash accumulate in real time. Clean it up before it spawns more pests or spreads out of control.

  • Unpredictable Bug Behavior
    Bugs spawn from filth and gravitate toward expensive items. Leave them too long and you’ll lose pieces of the exhibit.

  • Unlockable Rooms & Escalating Challenge
    Start in a clean hall, then unlock additional rooms with new layouts and spawn locations. More rooms means more chaos to manage.

  • Medal System with No Hard Fails
    You won’t get kicked out for losing an item. Replay any room, improve your score, or just enjoy the mess.

  • Stylized, Minimal Presentation
    A clean visual design keeps the focus on gameplay. No characters, no dialogue, just slippers, bugs, and mess.
