v1.1-24 changelog

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

Greetings, fellow bee friends!

Today's update addresses the glaring omission of tooltips for settings in the main menu!

When starting a new game, or visiting any of the settings screen, hovering over an item will now reveal a description of that item. The look and feel of tooltips throughout the game have also been updated.

Another item of note is the addition of a much requested master volume slider. If you're streaming and want to tweak Hive Time's noisiness without fiddling with a bunch of sliders, or if you need to quickly quieten the game for a phone call, that's a lot simpler now.

Last but not least, I wanted to make a quick note that Hive Time is now included in the Itch Bundle for Racial Justice and Equality, which has so far raised over $4 million dollars. Along with 1,500+ other games and 1,000+ creators, we are supporting the NAACP Legal Defense and Educational Fund and Community Bail Fund for the next 5 days. Please consider checking it out <3

Enjoy!
