- Pretty fun game! I do think the difficulty scaling is a bit out of whack, the game starts too difficult and ends way too easy in my experience. The game has solid controls and I had a blast playing this. Keep kicking ass!

Tell us about your game!
It is an overhead 2D shoot-em-up in which you play as a bee flying through the air.
Astronauts brought back a strange flower from the moon, spread a virus to all the bees that consume it. The Queen Bee has created a vaccine for this virus that you can create using the special Pollenizer device you've been fitted with. Your mission is to pollinate the healthy flowers and get rid of the infected pollen. While doing this the zom-bees will try to stop you.

This is a fun little shooter. The graphics are really nice, and the movement feels good. It took a few runs for me to figure out the dark flowers were bad, and a few runs to find out that i can shoot them and turn them into good flowers. :D
Glad you enjoyed it!
If we had a little more time we would've tried add something to tell the player how the game worked. Unfortunately bugs kept popping up so we ran out of time.
I like your idea!
The art is really good
Some issues
Ammo goes to -1
Upgrades don't work
The infected flower and good flower look way too similar, maybe a particle effect on the bad ones?
The waves have way too many enemies going too fast, I end up only killing like 3 enemies before I die
Good work!
Thanks for playing the game!
There were a lot of last minute issues so unfortunately we weren't able to fix everything.
I was aware of the ammo issue but the upgrades should work. They just don't take your money properly and there isn't a visual indication you bought an upgrade. The multi-shot upgrade is a little wonky though.
I actually really wanted to add particle effects to the flowers. I only realized after play testing at the very end how hard it was to spot the bad flowers.
Appreciate the feedback.
Awesome sprite art and a competent game
