How it feels

A tense and thoughtful management sim where you guide a bee crew through hostile space, balancing survival and moral choices.

What players say

Players call it a short FTL-lite with a missile-command combat minigame and bee characters. They like the story but warn that runs are about 40 minutes and after a few you've seen everything. Saves sometimes break mid-campaign, and survival mode has no save at all.
