I ended up with two honey.\nI reckon the main problem is \"conveyance\" of what you're doing and how to do it \"in game\".\n\nAdding the \"Cost\" somewhere in game would be nice. For a game jam, I'd fully accept putting your resources text in game so people don't \"have to read the game jam description\" to be able to play.\n\nCool that you had worker bees that had \"optional moves\" to do - I can definitely *feel* the *system* you were making for essentially a little RTS! I do think that, if you have nectar, right clicking on an empty space should automatically use the \"make honey in this area\" function.\n\nGood job :)","format":"md","likes":3,"spam":"N"},{"id":1081683,"author_name":"AlxJE","author_uid":"alxje","epoch":1728279646,"text":"Nice\uff01The audio effect is really funny and consistent with the tone!
