Nice one! Good work .
And the skycube is awesome!

-more explanation would be nice: what is a hive? what does a
-the menu click sounds... I really don't like them. they're too... something.
-awesome ingame menus (the building options)

I love it!
Awesome drone-movement, very intuitive controls.
Would you share the movement code for the workers, or at least give some hints?
Well done!

edit: in the first level with the timer, I lost even though I had a tick next to all three goals (150 pollen, factories and hives), the time just kept decreasing... and then I lost.

Grafik Naja.Aber sonst sieht es recht gut aus.Versteh das Ziel des Spiels aber irgendwie nicht

Hello,

I think you lost (even though you had all checkmarked goals) because you'd not clicked past all the speech bubbles. It does not check if you've won til after you do that. I'll fix that.

More explanation of what a hive is a problem. I made the game too weird, and now everyone keeps asking what the game is supposed to be! When I get around to making more then 4 levels, I go back and make a proper, slow, storyline or something.

The movement code for the workers is easy. They spawn a model, that is invisible and passable. This model then projects a vector forward, and uses ang_rotate to rotate around. They then fly towards the projected vector (maybe 600 out from the center model). I can send you the .wdl file if you like.

the idea is very nice! Maybe you can make, that when you go with the Mouse at a Model, it flash.

and srry again my English is very limited...

Thats a good idea. I should have a glow shader, or maybe a cartoon outline shader, for mouse over. They do that in C&C3.

I really love the idea. It's so relaxing to just ist back and watch the bees. The music makes the atmosphere extra super. Please continue developing this game. The ptrotoype is great.

Just a question, i've built two hives, two factories and collected over 150 pollen, but I just don't win. There are ticks on all three goals in the upper right corner of the screen. I can wait until the timer runs down and then get the message that I've failed. What am I doing wrong.

The .wdl would be awesome, yes . I've been coding heat-seaking rockets the past two days and I'd like to see the way you do it...

About the mouse-over-effect: he already has one for the platforms, and I like that one. It's unique...

Yeah, the models could use a little more detail/texture/etc...

how about not calling it "bees"?... when you say that I expect little yellow insects to be flying around, not green blobs. call it something more abstract, maybe? Just a suggestion, because you said it was "too weird"...

New version is up at my site. I've fixed the not winning bug, and uploaded it to my site. Go to here and click on the big 'BeeKeeper' banner. I've also got a video and some screenshots.

@Germanunkol, I'll upload the .wdl's for my game, but I have to go out in ten minutes, so maybe tomorrow. Are you looking for the drone flying code, or the pollen-collecter flying code? One is a slow turning to target code, the other is a orbit effect.

Also, I know you could not beat level 3, but on level 4 there are turrets, that shoot actual homing missiles.
