@snowycocoon Thank You! :D It was made in javascript using ThreeJS, and the bee was modeled in blender

The animation is great. I wish there was an explanation of the different colors in game.

Cool using threeJS. Fun little game :smile: would be cool if the orbs you where gathering was on actual flowers.

Very cute!! I love the graphics!

Moving around and flying feels super nice.

I really like the core idea. Watching the tree grow was cool.

Man, I loved the aesthetic of this game. I think in general, your design sense was a real winner as far as keeping me invested. The game's pacing was a little bit slow for an LD game, but i appreciated what you put in there as far as adding infections to make use of the flying. Game feel was mostly pretty good, though, despite really liking the camera setup, i thought it detracted from the ease of control just a bit. Thanks again, I'd love to see this developed further.

Just watched AdamCYounis play and needed to come check it out myself. The visuals are great and I really enjoy the sound effects -- makes the game feel very wholesome.

I only had issues with the camera when trying to walk downwards. It felt like my bee wasn't going the direction I wanted it to. Other than that, very enjoyable game :v:

Really loved the graphics style of this game and nice to see threeJS being used. I think the way the camera followed the player was a bit disorienting (it feels like it was lerping too fast maybe?)

@willjardine @jimanzium @alchemic @furtive-pygmy Thank You! I'm surprised by how much people like the graphics, I'm very new to blender.

@evergreen-games Thank You! I totally agree. Since I can't update the game, I've added a small color explanation picture to this page to help out.

@dimling Thank You! oh thats a good Idea

I loved the graphics, sound, and atmosphere. One thing I noticed was that the music didn't seem to play all the time. Anyways, great submission

i really love the art sytle of this game, and how the bees fly around the tree. the overview from the top is the best part of the game from my point of view lol, and just forget to keep the tree alive XD
anyway nicely done compo game!

What a spiffy tree I made! I dig the look, and it was fun floating around — I wish I got to do it a little more! The wonky camera/controls reminded me of a Sega CD game, something like that. Nice work!

Really cool! The art style (while 3D) was pixelated, AND FAST! so that did bring me to "awe"
