Nectar Nomads #


Send out bees to collect nectar in this lighthearted idle game! By collecting nectar, your hives can start generating honey to use on upgrades in each shop, or to purchase new hives! Hop on and enjoy a relaxing beekeeping game.

Game Loop #


You are a beekeeper trying to increase your honey enterprise. Use and upgrade your hives to have bees collect nectar from the nearby flowers and bring it back to the hive. Once the hive has some nectar, it gets to work generating wonderfully delicious honey that shows up in your global honey supply. From there, the honey can then be used to buy more hives in the main shop or used to upgrade individual hives in their own shops. Buzz and repeat until you fill your honey stores to your hearts content!

Controls #


- Click on a hive to send out a bee.
- Click the shop icon next to a hive to spend your honey and upgrade that hive.
- Click the upgrade icon to learn more about the upgrades in the shop.

I love the game! Its very cute and a nice little idle sim. I did manage to find a bug. If you pause the game and go to the title screen and press start game again, you cannot click on the hive to spawn a bee! You have to completely restart the game to continue playing. All-in-all, a fun little game! I love the bees!

I really liked this game. Music, sounds, they are cool. Also, the bees are very cute and work with all their might so that I can buy an upgrade for them

Love the Bees, Really cute and nice vibe, while I have never really understood the appeal of Idle Clicker Games, I find this one to be a great addition to the genre XD - Great job, IT was cozy watching all the bees do their work!

Reminded me of Cookie Clicker over other games in the idle genre, which was very refreshing and fun! Towards the end of playing I was wishing the world had more flowers but don't we all.

The game was a lot of fun! I loved the little bees and expanding the empire with more and more hives, if only we could plant more flowers in the late game

It is so lovely but please please make an interactive tutorial, this would give so much to the game!
Other than that I loved every single second playing it! And the visuals omg the artstyle is so cute! Keep up the good work!

Nice idea to make a mini clicker game ! The graphics are good and it's quite addictive I would love to see a game complete game with this concept ! :bee: :honey_pot:

Those bees got busy! and might have damaged my left mouse button (I was supposed to click like a madman, correct?). In any case, it's a good entry with intuitive mechanics, very fitting bee-like vibey music and bright early summer visuals. Solid entry!

Very cute drawings, I thoroughly enjoyed watching the bees buzz all over the place.

Good implementation of an idle game :yellow_heart:
