Hivesters

*The Kingdom suffered its fair share of blights and plagues but from each it came out strong as always. Peaceful, and plentiful it awaits its next harvest. Nobody could predict what would come next, once resting in the depths of the earth. Now awoken... and hungry.*

Submission

Same windows build reuploaded 5 mins after submission deadline, as it refused to download from itch. No change to the build itself. Web build submitted without issue.

Note: For the sake of headphone users, we've uploaded a minor fix addressing some broken audio levels. The fix is present in the embedded web build and HivestersWinFix windows build. The original uploads remain and are still available for download, as the initial submission.
