This is no ordinary bee colony. This colony has the power of the Bee Cannon! Use it to shoot your bees at flowers and collect honey. Avoid flowers that birds have landed on.

Controls:
J - Hold and release to launch bees
F - Add bees to the cannon

The game was made in Java with libGDX.

Edit: Fixed a bug causing the game to crash when the player loses.

Nice Gameplay, but the constant bee sound was annoying the music was good though. That the game just shuts itself off if you lose i guess is really weird.

@Juin, that's definitely a bug! There is in fact a game over screen, or at least there should be.

Even though the graphics and sound is sub par, I had a lot of fun!

nice graphics and sound, if a hummingbird happens to eat ALL your bees then you have to wait for the honey count to go down.

Good game, looks easy at the beginning but become quickly challenging. Good pixel art graphics, but annoning bee sounds... anyway, good job overall, I've had fun ^^

Really fun game, but the bee sounds got a bit annoying after a while.

Cute, enjoyable little game! Good idea executed pretty well.
Though the audio was a headache for me, very loud and coarse.

Fun base for a game, but there are some things holding it back:
- your bees take -a lot- of time to return. That is me doing nothing.
- if a bird eats all your bees? what then?
- I want to get more bees, how?
- Damn birds need to be gone! Add a way to defeat / run off birds.
- More bees, that screen needs to be fully abuzzing, and me doing alot of beeshootin'

Nice concept following the theme.

Since you're also using libGDX, why not make a web version available as well?
