Great game. The music was very calm and fitted the gamestyle. I enjoyed that you had to tap the keys instead of holding them in.

Thanks a lot @henrik-ganard :) We wanted to transfer the feeling of a hard working bumblebee to the player controls :)
awesome music - good match
Interesting game. I like how you show the breathing direction of the people to provide feedback to the player. Good job!!!
Thank you @gotanod :) We weren't sure if the feedback was enough.
The bumble is amazing, but that dang hedgehog! Got me so many times. I did hit a bug where the shop kept changing options while the menu choices were up and a hedgehog was in slowly moving toward me. I've always wanted to make a wasp game where you are trying to drink nectar to keep your energy up and hunting prey for offspring while avoiding predators, this game has helped give me a few ideas on how to do a better job at that game if I ever make it. Having WSAD and arrows is very useful but the repetitive tapping is tough for those of us with repetitive movement stress problems.
Such a wild theme that works surprisingly well! The art is very cohesive and really fits the vibe overall. It did take me a while to click that I was trying to collect flying pollen when there were other particles in the air at about the same depth of field. But I can't say I've seen an entry like this before!
Gosh, your game is so beautiful and wholesome! It's like a much improved version of flappy bird. Loved the animals popping in to try and eat me. :laughing: I liked the controls a lot, and they felt good, especially with the store improvements. Music is great - did one of your team members make it? I enjoyed playing your game! Great job team!
I really liked how the movement was tapping instead of holding to move a direction. It made the bee jitter around similar to a real bee. The art was nicely done also, great job!
Thank you @pixelydian. Sadly the music is the only thing we didn't make ourselves but we love to hear that it is a good fit.
The art is awesome =D It's a little relaxing game very pleasant to play :)
Really nice aesthetics. Maybe a little bit repetitive. But a solid entry. Congrats
Very relaxing game, made me space out for a few minutes
beautiful art style, nice controls and music, a very peaceful and good game, excellent work!
The atmosphere of this game is perfect. Absolutely perfect. Very well done. :D I got 27 breaths and 183 pollen.
My only critique would be that the shop isn't the best defined to tell us that we can use the top of the sign instead of the bottom - I had to restart a couple times cause I thought I had to hit the shopkeep and then I got eaten. =( Alternatively, just making the shop a safe zone or raising the shop could be a huge help to silly folks like me.
Either way, I loved the game, a bit of calm that I needed today - thank you. =D
👌
Beautiful art and the game feels very nice to play. The music fits very nicely as well.
I like how you just start playing and there is no menu or anything and it feels very natural for this game.
Only thing I would add is a gentle breath sound when the breath happens.
Good job!
Good game, with nice graphics, and sound 1. had a hard time understanding the breathing timing so sometimes it felt like too much or not conveyed enough 2. shop balancing didn't work for me, had to skip it several times because of the pricing
