Great start Peter. The link is broken - remove the www. to download. Game loads on my Linux box with WINE, however the controls don't work. I'll try later on with a real Windows machine. Don't forget that to enter the competition (not the jam) you need to include the source code.
Thanks for trying it out! I should have said, the controls might not be what you expect - you can only move the bees once you have created some to send across. So press Space and Enter first, then you can move up and down.
I didn't read the rules properly at the beginning, and didn't make my engine code publically available before the competition, so this is just a jam entry.
Wait, are you the guy who made Armadillo Run?
Cool idea, though it's not particularly intuitive. It also kind of turns into a who-can-mash-the-keys-faster game after a while, since defending makes it a zero-sum game. Would be nice if you got a bonus for shooting down an enemy bee somehow...
This became a whole lot more interesting at the point I discovered how this all works :)
Very simple gameplay. A tutorial/intro would have helped.
nice, simple gameplay. A great start.
Not bad, although I don't have anyone to properly test the gameplay. And the theme connection is quite weak I think.
