Shutterbug is a bug photography game about the joy of going out into the woods and discovering pleasant little critters.

One of your parents broke your favourite camera, but they've made you this new one that is built to scale! Show them the joy of the micro world, and maybe they'll find bugs a bit less nasty!

A relaxing and highly creative game with a lot of agency. I also enjoyed reviewing the photos at the end of each level. Well done! :3

Wow, this is an amazing idea! Very well executed. The art is also very beautiful. Well done!

PS. I'm curious how did you identify that I'm dragging my browser without resizing it.
