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

Bzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz!

As a belated birthday activity, I just spent a few days away at Cradle Mountain, Tasmania. A bit cold for any bees, but still lovely nonetheless. In addition to trapsing around the damp wilderness, hanging out with cool animals, and recording audio for one of my other projects, I also found some time to get a bit of Hive Time work done.

I'd intended to spend an evening writing some new events and doing a writing pass on existing events, but I ended up writing a bunch of event condition and effect handling code (including some stuff that I thought I'd written and had totally forgotten - whoops :D ).

Peter's also sent through an updated piece of music that's included in this update.

Enjoy!
