While the gameplay loop isn't finished,the mechanics and the art are promising and the bee experience is a fresh experience.
(Surprisingly you do not need to land to pollinate the flowers if you just rapidly enter and exit it.

I tried to play it but it didn't work on my PCs.
Maybe the latest update is affecting it?
I'll try to play it again later.

Unitychan SurvivorIt reminds me about mario galaxy's bee powerup, pretty fun, I think some sound would help, the art is pretty good, and the idea very original. Nice game!

Uncanny ForestI like the idea of collecting pollen for experience. Nice concept.

Obsidian StrikeGreat job on this! Just from playing the small starting area and the boss I can tell this game has a lot of potential. Add more upgrades, mechanics, and I can see this going places. Also really nice pixel art. Overall, very nice!

Hack the LoopCool natured inspired game!
- Innovation – The idea is very cool~
- Fun – The flying controls are nice! The text was kind of immersion breaking though heh
- Graphics – Cool pixel art! And nice parallax background!
- Audio – Simple and cool. Perhaps some ambient field sounds would help the world feel alive. Plus you NEED to add a bee buzzing sound.
- Polish – Some particles might be nice, like wind lines or falling leaves, flower pollen, etc.
Great job on the bee game! Please check out my game if you like Metroidvanias or platformers :D

YesterSolA great beginning of a unique game here ! I enjoyed being able to fly around and cling to flowers. It's great how you have that all set up. There is a bug where after you pollinate while clinging you will continue to cling even when moving off the flower , press space resets this to hover though. All in all , this project just needs some more time to really become what it is meant to be :D Best of luck !
