Haha! I loved this game! The thing I would change is at the start the text shows up so slowly. Maybe something to speed it up? Anyways, I loved the sound effects in the game and depolying bees was weirdly satisfying. Loved it!


If you have spare time, allow yourself to check my game out! :)

A nice little timesink, I think it might be a bit too easy to balance everything out or get to 95% chance to succeed, I won on my first attempt. But it was still a fun time :)

Wow really extradionarie game, Its really well polished, I like the visuals the artits outdid themselves, I am really impresed you managed to do this game in 7 days!, I have a small recomendation about the sounds when they are speaking, they sound good and the have different pitch when played which is really well made there is this one small thing is that it doesn't play as frequently as it should be, if you compare it to other games that have sound when text is appearing they have the sound apear more often, but anyway great game!

Perfectly fitting the theme, cute graphics and I love the music. Somehow the greek vibe fits the decision-making-gameplay pretty well.

Great game... I just think it needs a bit more balancing. Starting day 6 I could get 95% chance in all tasks. Loved the bzz bzz

fun little game, can't really add anything to the conversation, but it could use random events to make the gameplay even more interesting and unique.

The BZz Bzz bZz part was my favourite.

As someone else said this is very reminiscent of Reigns, and i love reigns, meaning i love this game! The art style and in this game and the whole bee theme is really cool and everything is tied together very nicely. Good work!

It reminded me of the mobile game "Reigns".
It was not too clear how or why I should make the choises. 
The art style and UI was nice.  Intro properly cracked me up and the music adds so much. Nice choice!

Good luck!

Simple, yet good concept and well executed. The queen was very happy with my results :)

One thing that kind of bothered me durning gameplay was that i had to pixel perfect aim for the 1/100 of the slider to get the exact number of bees for 95% chance as any more would be wasted. Would like to see there being a limit after you reach 95% just like there is one when you have no more bees.

Nice gameplay, runs smooth in browser, I really liked the buzzing dialogue, it adds character. I love a good management sim, this is simple but fun and I liked it a lot.

I like the buzzing sounds in the dialogue between the bees and the fact that you know what will happen if you succeed or fail with a mission. Good job! Really well done

I tryed to play without reading the tutorial, and still able to understand how the game work in the first day, isn't hard but is easy to die if you don't think before acting, really cool gameplay and funny idea.

would love if you could see my game too ^^

Very nice game! I loved the bees idea for strength in numbers and the gameplay choices. Art was also dope! Only thing I wish it had was a 'talk faster' button on click during the opening chat scene.

This game was amazing! Definitely one of the best games I've played in the jam as I played through it 3 times. The graphics were amazing, it really felt like being in a hive at times. The dialogue was amazing and I loved all the different tasks you had to manage. I only have one thing to say but even without it, the game would be amazing!

-Maybe try adding some animations, maybe the worker bee could be writing on some papers or the heads in the dialogue portraits could move slightly. Just little details that can make the game feel more alive

Again, amazing game! As I've said before, one of the best games in the jam.
