Very unique game, but not much to do it seems. I guess you had planned for powerups and healing but didn't get around to do it? Still intriguing concept, maybe you'll work more on this, post-LD :)

Pretty nice concept! Really fun! :')

Adorable visuals. But I feel like some of the levels were impossible because of the way the bees were organised. Either way, quite fun!

Cool game!
Maybe add some music next time?

I like the idea! It took me a minute to realize what was going on, but I really like the screen setup with the zoom-in! Only thing I'd suggest is to ease up on the bees to make it a little more possible to navigate them. If the mechanic is supposed to be 100% timing, I'd take away the illusion that you can navigate through the bees at all. I was able to avoid them a couple times, but for the most part if I didn't time it correctly, the bees unceremoniously ejected me, and there was no hope of navigating through them.

All in though, well done!

Congratulations on your first LD game! This is a very cool concept, I just wish it had some audio - it's difficult to figure out what's going on sometimes. It's also pretty hard, I think gradually increasing the number of bees would have been better. Good job, keep it up!

Great screen layout idea, but the bees are too damn hard.

Congratulations! It's fun, I made the bear happy. Nice graphics, too!

Great concept - wasn't sure exactly what to do though

++ For using Phaser :)

The concept is original. I found it very hard though, I could not get past the bees.

calavera 2014-12-10 13:16

Those bees are impossible to pass!

how did you host this from itch.io? i hosted there but i cant get it to load on LD

wilpel1234 2014-12-10 16:31

Good job!

ali312 2014-12-10 16:34

Took me 10 attempts to get all the honey)
Love the concept, very original!

zncatlaw 2014-12-10 16:42

So frustrating! I want the honey! My strategy was just to wait by one tree, and then bolt for the honey as soon as I could. I got 100 oz in 4 tries.

This game is weeeeird! I really love it, such a unique design!

rzuf 2014-12-10 18:53

The bear is happy. :3

mortus 2014-12-11 15:16

I love the concept, fits the theme perfectly. Too bad there's not much gameplay implemented.

thomastc 2014-12-11 18:56

The mechanic is nice, but I think it's a bit too hard. Walking around chasing the moving hive is a bit pointless though.

dekart 2014-12-13 11:02

It's simple yet very challenging

madmaw 2014-12-13 21:03

Frigging bees!

h4ssi 2014-12-17 23:41

enjoyed the game
at first bees were pretty hard but once with enough practice it gets manageable :D
especially liked the concept, that you can take a shortcut through the inner 4x3 tiles.
graphics are sweet :D as is the idea and the game is fun as well. i like

gana0 2014-12-22 17:53

Very nice concept. I like the zoom in when you actually get near the honey. The difficulty seemed somewhat unfair at times, as I was constantly forced out by the bees with no visible path to get to the honey. Additionally, I couldn't find a way to get to the 'buy' or 'heal' stands and didn't find any directions of how to get there. The bear was very cute. Overall, it was a very nice first game that fit the theme very well.

nice work keep it up

I think the game would benefit a lot from hitboxes(both yours and from the bees) being smaller, even if more bees where needed to balance it out.
