even though its a multiplayer game i still tried it myself, i like the physics on the bees when you recruit them, the controls are tight and the graphics fits your bee theme really well ! the music was kinda loud tho haha but i imagine this would be very fun with friends. congrats :)

Making a multiplayer game for a gamejam is very ambitious, I appreciated that, I wish I could play with someone because the mechanics seems good. Well done.

Looks nice and controls are working fine. Unfortunately there is no one online to play with so its easy to win. I think creating a multi-player-only game for a game jam isn't such a great idea. But still looks like a fun game.

Great vibes. Music was lovely. Gameplay was fun and intuitive. Movement was snappy and enjoyable.
Didn't have anyone to play with so it feels like I was missing an important aspect of the game.

Cute idea and I think it would be a good base for further development.

Unfortunetly I didnt have anyone to play with but it looks nice and controls well. Maybe worth adding a gif/video to this page so lonely people like me can see what it looks like in full swing ;)

@pabulum Thanks for the idea. We just made a video capturing real multiplayer gameplay!

@kayahr Thanks for your feedback. We decided upon a multiplayer because a lot of us wanted to be able to share an experience with people we cannot currently meet. But in hindsight you all might have a point that testing it this way is a bit :(

Wow, this was a really cool concept. I wasn't able to play it in multiplayer but I still had fun playing it with myself somehow haha. Great work.
