A Gun That Shoots Bees

Description
STEAM WORKSHOP EDITION! Decided to upload my LD32 game to steam for y'all.

YOU HAVE A GUN THAT SHOOTS BEES.


...why are you still here!?

Ok fine,

Collect nectar from flowers to acquire vital upgrades.
Defend the central hive from invading bears after your delicious honey.
Shoot bears with bees.


Move around with WSAD/Arrows, click the mouse to fire bees.


Made in 48 hours for Ludum Dare 32. I came up with a bunch of serious ideas then asked myself why not just make a game where you have a gun that shoots bees. So uh. I did that. Very refreshing to make a really silly game for once that's not really trying to do anything clever and is just stupid and fun.


PRO TIPS:

There's a boss at Wave 20, after wave 20 the game gets exponentially harder with each passing wave until you're overwhelmed.
You can explore the map to find big sources of nectar but it's very risky, learn when the best times are to hunt for nectar!
You can't shoot through flowers and bees get distracted by it which affects your aim, so collect them quickly whenever possible!
BUZZ BUZZ BUZZ

Definitely delivers, and is simple but challenging!

Very fun and cute game!

Dear Shaun,

I have located a bug in which nectar flowers spawn even when the title screen is up and the game has not begun.
This means you can leave the game on overnight and effectively cheat your way to all the upgrades.
Not sure if this is in the steam release, but it is in the Jam version.
Please fix...
...Or not.

Ooh, people mentioning a strange bear in the middle, that might be a bug. I'll look into it but I think I know what that is.
