You play as a bug - intentionally, who's wings are broken. The game turns from an Adventure game to a Bullet Hell game.

Cool game, I'm like it a lot! What I'm missing in this game a lot is animations, even 2 frames per object are boosting game feeling a lot, movement attack e. t. c.

Yes I think you are right. I should have made much more animations!

it seems like staying in the corners during the boss fight makes it significantly easier because then only 1 side attacks. I'm not sure if that was intended instead of having to move from one corner to the other.

Some reason why the queen suddenly attacked would be welcome, but overall a nice start of a game.

Thanks. Yes that was an intended strat. The boss takes much longer if you dont go from side to side to collect the loops. Im just wondering, did you beat it using that strat? Also, thanks for playing.

I only beat it by just staying in the corner, only switching sides if there was health in the middle or if I had to flee to the middle and couldn't easily get back

The Game feel pretty fun and the puzzles are very clever. I love that the game still has a small amount of story telling in it. I absolutely love this! Keep up the good work!

Nice one! Enjoyed going through it and had good level design! Although the boss-fight is a little strange... What happens after the time expires? Why does it save me?

Overall a great game! :)

When the time expires, you beat the boss. I made a hotfix, if you downloaded the 0.5 version, the text says "Time Left". Its a bit confusing. And I can tell you didn't beat the boss fight XD (But thats my fault, it is really hard.) Anyways, thanks for playing.

No it wasn't that hard, sorry for not making my comment clear. xD (Got it second time) :P

Really nice implementation of the voice over! The game gave me really retro vibes, especially of Golden Axe III, which I love. And the mood was perfectly set on the dialogue between the queen bee and Beetholomew . Gotta say, was not expecting a Terraria queen bee boss fight, which was the cherry on top.  My only complaint is the tutorial music, it gets annoying rather quickly. Oh and you can collect the flowers during the tutorial part, which can be an easter egg or just a bug ;) either way  I had fun!

Thanks for playing! Yes, collecting the flowers on the tutorial area was intended XD. Also, the Queen Bee boss was based on terraria's queen bee boss. Thanks for your feedback!

After the tutorial I thought that the game is finished but just started, I also had no clue that game has a boss fight! that claimed one one star by itself :D, first game that the developer talked with me in the game XD

Really cool game I really liked how you had to find the secret entrances. One minor thing is I thought the Time bar in the bossfight was time remaining lol, could just call it time left to make it a bit clearer.

Ok thanks for your feedback. I might make a quick update so the people who play this game later will have an easier time on the boss fight. Thanks for playing!

Great game with an epic bossfight!

I like the controls, as they were snappy and responsive!

Keep up the great work!

Thanks! The boss fight was originally not going to be in the game! XD I realized "This game is so bad, I need to add a bossfight" Then I proceeded to spend the next 10 hours making the queen bee boss fight XD. Thanks for playing my game.

It is an amazing game! I love the graphics and the developer secret! It was fun and creative, the music was dope and I didn't saw much that fitted into the topic, but overall it was amazingly good!

Thanks! So you found the developer secret huh!? XD. Thanks for playing. I realized that the game doesnt really fit into the topic, aside from you playing as a bug, and you can walk through some glitchy ground or whatever to get pollen. Anyways, thanks for playing!
