iOS: working on Buzzed, a casual retro action puzzler

Hello, I've done some coding for jobs for years (stats and forecasting), but I decided to teach myself to write an iPhone game as a pandemic project. I've had a great time drawing bugs and learning solo game development (and fixing bugs).

Buzzed is a little bit like Lemmings, which I love. Like in that game, you guide helpless critters. My critters are bees, and they swarm and sting and can get stuck, eaten, burned, etc. You steer your stupid swarms by changing the air flow. 

My last attempts at game development were back in the early 1990s... Hence the retro feel! I hope I'm about 70% done. Still working on level design and progression, and I want to add a "relaxing" mode that goes on forever...

If you wanna try Buzzed, here's the link for the beta (iOS only; you must have the Apple app “TestFlight” installed on your device for this link to work)

I'd love feedback, here or on twitter @playBuzzed
