DEFENDERS OF POLLEN by Voidoz

[raw]
made by Voidoz for Ludum Dare 46 (JAM)

Disclaimer: This is a concept and we weren't able to finish the game in time. It's been modified to demonstrate the concept we did finish but expect bugs to be present.

A strategic base game where you are a race of bee's protecting a giant flower from an army of angry snails! Using pollen (the currency of the game) you can buy bee's (they protect the flower from snails!) or you can buy health! The snails come in waves of attacks so watch out!

There's a panel in game and it's kinda hard to read so here it is copied:

This game wasn't finished :( Here are the buttons to demo our systems we did finish :)

F: Attack/Get 1 Pollen (As if killing a snail)

Left Click: Remove 1 flower health

Right Click: Add 1 flower health

"Buy Bees" Button: Remove 2 pollen as if buying new soldier bee

"Menu" Button: Opens pause menu

Shame you weren't able to finish on time. The art is gorgeous though! You should keep at it. :)

The art for the loading screen and title are fantastic! The in-game graphics were a bit different, they're pretty decent but not as polished as the others which makes sense for a jam game. But I feel like more focus on the gameplay art would've went better since people will see that art longer.

I was really excited to play because I like bees, I like the art style; and it looked really nice! Plus it's a horizontal defense game which I also did so having someone of the same genre was pretty sweet. However, I couldn't play the game. I got into the game and saw the stuff and the game but nothing came out to attack and I just couldn't get things to function right and it felt very unresponsive. Then I read the description better and felt sadness.

If you do finish up more of a complete version I'd love to play!
