Nice sounds and shooting felt good. Sometimes it froze, but it might be just my hardware issue.

It may have been my machine, but I had some performance issues - lag after each shot. I like the atmosphere and the graphical language of the game. Maybe a deeper field of view would be helpful?

The idea for the game is great and I like the hit particles! The visibility could be better though as the hive is pretty hard to navigate. Overall nice entry for the jam.

Nice game! It was funny going from having to conserve shots to being able to just blast everything. I was able to find where I needed to go due to smart enemy placement, but there isn't a way to tell where you are since the walls are all the same. Other than that, great work on this!

I love bees so this game is epic. I do think there was too much fog, but other than that it was pretty fun and I rlly liked the infinite shoot part. Overall very good :)

Submitted

Didn't expect a survival game. Nice title, cool ideas. well done :)

Really cool game. Fog felt a bit too much, I at first I wasn't sure if I'm walking at all. but after some time got used to it.

Cool game. Fog is VERY intense sometimes got a lil lost and managed to double back on myself but those eyes in the darkness are done really well.

UnBeelievable! Spooky game. Great for conquering fear of bees.

I had a great time mowing down bees once I had infinite ammo. Great job!

This game is pretty interesting, and I like the vibe of having to go around picking up your upgrades, and for your second game ever this is great! The gun felt fun to use, the enemies worked well and weren't boring or overwhelming, and overall the gamefeel was pretty solid! I will say that the graphics/level design made it very easy to get lost, but all in all great job!

This has a kind of unsettling vibe to it. At least in the web version, it looks hazy trying to find your way around and all of the sudden you hear buzzing and a bee coming towards you. Very cool.

Nice entry! The sound design and juice of the gun felt really good, and the first time I died to the bees, it really freaked me out. I also liked being able to see some of the red eyes in the distance to help with getting lost, that was a good touch. Nice job!

First thought was that the gun had a really good feel to it. So I was extremely happy to find the final power up! I like the visual presentation as well as the interpretation of the theme. The first time I died it scared me. Nice job!

Good second game! I think it could benefit a good amount from having more enemy types (and a slight cooldown on the infinite shoot weapon). Also I don't really condone violence against Bees so I felt bad having to shoot them :. Particle effects are great tho!

This game was kind of scary :o
