Bee-rilliant Farm

2018-08-12 23:27

I just spent over half an hour on this - what an addictive, fun game.

What I love is that you have created a entire economy in this. You earn money, use some on maintenance and then trying to buy /research new things.

Best of all, the theme of this Jam "Running out of space" is something beautifully addressed in this and certainly gave me many moments of panic. LOL

WHAT I LOVED MOST OF ALL, is that there's an element of conservation in here. As a novice beekeeper myself, I really appreciate the detail you put in here. Not only about frames not always yielding a 100% yield, but also that they sadly die and that there are pesticides that harm them. If only I could afford a fancier suit in real life, I might get stung less...

Great job though.

Off to bed, but I'll play this tomorrow again.

Truly an amazing amount of content you put it, well done! The space between the initial tutorial and the opening of the shop could just be *slightly* shorter, but seeing as you had to cover a lot of information, it's done really well!

Super cute aesthetic. Concise and fleshed-out micromanagement and progression. Fairly challenging to juggle it all. Who knew beekeeping could be so stressful?

I really enjoyed it. Great ideas and gameplay. Some of my bees died due to sickness :(

The graphics are great in their simplicity too.

Nicely done. I'll be bookmarking this one :)

I just spent an embarrassing amount of time playing this. It's so addictive. I'm saving this one for playing some more later :)

I played it much longer than I thought I would. I beeleive that was due to the good pacing and balance which constantly kept me buzzy. The only thing the game is missing is beeing able to save (or at least continue after closing it).

it had to be very difficult to fine-tune the rating system. I enjoyed it very much. I thing, this is good way for final app, for phone.

Pretty nice clicker for 42 hrs. Well done!

This is great! The artwork and sounds are very well done. I played this for a while, and still I didn't get to see all of the content. Well done :)

Nice game, I hope to see more updates and improvments sooner. If you don't bother take a look at our game when we focused on Graphics and visuals and see the results that we got: https://ldjam.com/events/ludum-dare/42/spacelab-42

This game was awesome! The introduction segment was very informative, yet concise. The game play is long, which is a good thing. Overall really good work!

Good idle game ^^ But that sound when hive is full! Grrrr x) I stop after bought the 6 hives and 30 minutes x) Good job!

Awesome! Strange how I always happen to find a game that can take over 30 minutes to complete. Had fun though, even if that incessant beeping was a little annoying :stuck_out_tongue:

Graphics very cute and consistent, gameplay fun with lots of depth and the theme fits perfectly with the beehives constantly running out of space, great game! :thumbsup:

Cool game, I felt like real beekeeper)

Very addictive - everything had a real sense of urgency too, especially with the beeping when a hive is full. However, I feel that it could have been improved by having some ambient buzzing noises.
