Came for the bee yuri, stayed for the engaging mashup of game mechanics.
I’ve always had a soft spot for resource management games, but this was so much more than that. The shmup and arcade shooter mechanics were wonderfully integrated. I am endlessly grateful for the clear, concise, and optional explanations of the various game mechanics within the game itself. Combined with the option of playing on different difficulty levels, the tutorials make the game refreshingly accessible! Narratively, there was something so heartwarming about building this (quite literally) found family of bees over the course of the game. I was thrilled to find that the bees you rescue and beefriend while foraging show up in the hive with the player character.
Finally, I adore the inclusion of the art book! It’s so cool to get insight into the development through process sketches. I miss videogame ephemera so much these days, so the art book is such a nice touch on top of the nostalgic Game Boy aesthetic.
Thank you so much for all the work you do bringing queer games to the Game Boy! <3
To be(e) honest, I'm not 100% sure what I just experienced but I am sure that it was pretty great and there was, in fact, bee yuri. I will be experiencing it again shortly.
