Thanks to everyone who played and gave feedback!

They have really helped the game BEE all it can BEE. I am happy with the state of it and unless some huge bug emerges I will not touch it any more. I had an un-BEE-lievable experience at my first Ludum Dare and will definitely be coming back. Now it is time to properly play some other games.

Check out the final release on itch: https://blank-3d.itch.io/hive or here, here is good:)

Released the assets from the game. You can grab them for free on sketchfab : https://sketchfab.com/3d-models/low-poly-environment-pack-from-hive-eddf5a23332243f4b5087304a5f56f16

..though the title is far from unwarranted :laughing:

It is always a rush to get things in before building, and after 72 hours of jam brain it seems incredibly easy to introduce game breaking bugs, or mess up build settings. I still managed to upload a broken build with a tiny max resolution with 1 hour and 47 seconds remaining.. Anyway. Page is up! I will update it with the not (well I say 'not', but honestly it is probably just less) broken build, within the hour.

Now has a nice home here

and on itch

This is Wizz

he is vaguely aware of what he is doing.

The fully unfinished post-jam update is out! A big THANK YOU to everyone who playtested this strange little prototype. It's now completely unfinished, and it will likely stay that way. I had a lot of fun creating it during the jam and refining it to match the original idea over the past week. I'll be doing a full post-mortem soon to carefully examine all the things that went wrong.

PLAY!

A huge shoutout to @badcop for this! It is a tool that lets you bundle your jam build with the current updated version of your game. I had such a bad time with simultaneously wanting to have the last update up and playable, and feeling bad for not having the actual jam build for people to rate. I had made them both downloadable, but it is a pain to spin up a host to play a downloaded web build. So if anyone is suffering from the same problem, go and check it out! this is the original post where I found it. this is the tool itself.

And this is what it looks like when you click to run the game, and you can pick which version to load!

Thank you so much for making this available!
