Update Love: Announcing Bugs and Kisses 2

April 4, 2025

Greetings, troopers! The hive has been buzzing with excitement, and we’re finally ready to share a sneak peek at what’s in store for Bugs & Kisses 2: Would You Like to Know More… About My Feelings?

We heard your feedback loud and clear: you wanted deeper romance, more intergalactic drama, and, of course, even more multi-limbed lovers to get tangled up with. So we’ve been working hard to bring you new mechanics, fresh storylines, and a love life so intense it’ll make your E-Pulse race. Here’s what’s coming in Bugs and Kisses 2!

In a universe where war rages between humanity and the relentless Arachnid hordes, one truth remains: even Bugs need love.

Welcome to Bugs & Kisses 2: Would You Like to Know More… About My Feelings?, the Starship Troopers-inspired dating sim where romance is just as intense as intergalactic combat. Will you win the heart of a battle-hardened officer? Share a tender moment with a drone? Or find yourself caught in an eight-legged love triangle?

Flirt, fight, and forge bonds that could change the fate of the galaxy. Because in the war for survival, sometimes the greatest victory… is love.

Who says romance and war don’t mix? In Bugs & Kisses 2, your relationships will affect your “performance”.

  • But be warned: if things go south in your relationship, it may affect morale, leading to missed shots or panicked retreats.
  • Some Bugs thrive in high-pressure situations. Will your romance survive the battlefield, or will the war tear you apart?

This time around, you’re not the only one looking for love. Other troopers AND Bugs might try to steal your heart or your sweetheart!

  • Engage in diplomatic persuasion (or aggressive intimidation) to keep potential rivals at bay.
  • Your love interest might be flattered… or annoyed depending on how you handle it.
  • Will you share your love in an open relationship, or is this Bug yours and yours alone? The choice is yours!

Not all Bugs are into the same things! Our new Chitin Chemistry system means every potential partner has unique preferences, dealbreakers, and hidden desires.

  • Some species value loyalty and devotion, while others prefer a little friendly competition for their affection.
  • Do they enjoy verbal affirmations, or would they rather see a heroic display of strength on the battlefield?
  • Your choices dynamically shape your relationship, leading to multiple possible endings for each love interest.

Choose wisely one wrong pheromone signal could ruin your shot at love.

In Bugs & Kisses 2, once you've secured a lifelong bond, you won’t just say, "I love you" you’ll build a home together.

  • Choose your biome: Will you settle in a lush jungle burrow, a cozy starship cabin, or enjoy a hot shower together?

Think you have what it takes to date, defend, and declare your love in the heat of battle?

Stay tuned for more updates, and remember: Love is mandatory.

Troopers, we appreciate your enthusiasm for Bugs & Kisses 2: Would You Like to Know More… About My Feelings?! The response to the first title has been truly out of this world.

But in the ever-expanding universe of game development, some ideas are… shall we say… best left classified. For now.

Still, who knows what the future holds? After all, love—like an unexpected Bug ambush—often finds you when you least expect it.

Stay vigilant, stay passionate, and remember: Would you like to know more… can sometimes be a dangerous question. If you have such dangerous questions of your own, we welcome you to ask in the ST:E Community Discord!

Happy April 1st, troopers. Dismissed!

We’re from Offworld, and we say kiss ’em all!
