Hive Time
A downloadable game for Windows, macOS, and Linux

Good evening, fellow bee friends!

Today's update brings in a new camera option that tilts the camera as it zooms in, getting up close and personal with bees and giving a better view of their hats (some of which need realignment now!).

There are a few other miscellaneous changes, but nothing particularly noteworthy aside from a fix for a possible crash when saving via the main menu. Today's been mostly spent getting the new Hive Time press kit and @Hive_Time Twitter account put together. Both always seem to eat up a lot more time than they need to, but they're done now (for Hive Time) at least, which gets things ready for the upcoming release date announcement. Exciting times!


Enjoy!
