Wow, awesome ! The game is really well polished, the art style is pretty cool and the audio fits well ! I really enjoyed the little facts about the bees as well, it added something more to the game that I appreciate. I really hope you'll keep working on this game, as it is promising and could really lead to some really good tower defense game ! :)

A super competent tower defence game. I have played similar games in this jam and so I'll keep the feedback brief. I really liked that you had a couple options for towers however the game isn't super intuitive to play as you need to use an odd mixture of left click and right click to play the game (this is a problem in a lot of other games in this jam). Also, the skip wait button (a nice addition) didn't give me the extra currency which was for some reason tied to the time which made me wait for a while. If this was fixed, and if you got an artist on your team, you could have something really interesting. It would have also been nice if the theme swarm is integral to the gameplay and not just a skin for a bee-themed tower defence game.

This is Jaden here (The lead the artist), thanks for telling me my art was negligible.

Oh sorry, the page doesn't show your contribution clearly. Don't be discouraged, I just think that you need some more practice within this style as the pixel art was a bit too messy. Try using cleaner shapes and a better colour palette. Good luck.

Nice game! It felt like a unique twist on the genre with the hexagons and being bees.

It was pretty hard tho, I can't last more than wave 5. Maybe I'm a scrub tho. haha

Nice tower defense game, it  will be more nice if it was more challenging i felt it was so easy that i left the game running in bg with 9 fully upgraded towers and many walls and healers and won the game with np at all. 

but GJ it was fun to play.

Thanks for checking it out! Balancing was a huge issue towards the end, and it's definitely better than the first version, but I totally agree that it's a bit too easy.
