Very fun game and I like the story idea! Took a few tries to evade all those spiders but I managed to beat it :)

Well done on your first Jam! You got both an intro text to introduce the game and multiple levels. I would have liked a bit more upwards speed as it felt a bit sluggish to move when going up.

Submitted

The game is funny and the controls are smooth. Is a bit hard too avoid the attacks, i think

Submitted

What fun! That was really neat. Looks very cool too. Nice entry :D :D

Submitted

Ha, nice one.

Simple fun game. 

Well done!

Controls and enemies were little bit too hard for me, but it's still pretty fun. I was so mad at the spiders. Music slaps in my left ear lol

Submitted

I enjoyed flying around and dodging webs! Finding the hidden parts was a compelling goal on top of clever level design. Great work!

Submitted

I really enjoyed that! The flight mechanics felt really smooth, the items were hidden to the perfect amount, spot on overall!

Fun short game!

I liked the colors, the zoomed out camera in the later levels fits the gameplay a lot better!

The velocity while trying to go up seems to be a bit too slow, but otherwise it was fun to play!

Submitted

I like the difficulty and that it has multiple levels, that´s really impressive in such short time!

Thanks for playing

A fast game where you have flying controls and need to dodge those annoying attacks. Took me a while to properly get how to avoid them. Funny story tho

Developer

Thanks for playing

I actually liked that the gravity pulled you down quickly, but wish I could have gone upward more quickly and felt a bit more maneuverable that way. In all, it was a hard game, but good!

Thanks for your suggestion. I will keep it in mind for the next time :)

Simple, effective gameplay, but the gravity should probably be toned down a bit. The bee moves down very very quickly and up very slowly. Can feel a bit frustrating when trying to dodge attacks as you have to do so by moving left or right, since going up is a death sentence.
Other than that the attacks are also quite punishing as its one and done and they're hard to dodge. Perhaps a health bar and unlimited lives would be more appropriate?
Well done overall!

It felt a little bit odd that the bee goes so slow up and down, but it's pretty fast going left and right. In the end I used the horizontal movement to dodge the attacks, so there is nothing wrong with that. Also one thing that felt out of place is the heart on the left side in the third or fourth level with a spider right below it, that is the hardest one to get in the whole game. It would be very thematic that it was a 'trap heart', but being that the only one that felt impossible to reach and in one level in the middle is what makes it weird.

Beside those two things, it was quite fair and straightforward. Finding the hidden machine parts takes some looking around, but  is not difficult, so well done!

Thank you for playing my game and such a detailed observation. I thought as the gravity is acting upon the bee, flying up should be slower than left or right movement. But if it reduces the smoothness, I would certainly take care of it. 

And I am sorry for that heart as player may die to gain extra life. As it is my first attempt to make a complete game, I missed the detailing. Your observation would help me to improve my level designing
