Okay game
The game would have been better if you would have had something like the ability to upgrade your bee between levels. And if they didn't swarm you after the second level.

Boring...
It's a good try but everything about this game is pretty lacking. I went through whole levels without even moving and i got my guns maxed on level 1.... The specials make the boss insanely easy just spam 2 and your gun and hes dead. I feel you could have done more maybe make the flys shoot AT you instead of just straight ahead randomly or make mini kamikaze flys fly full speed at you trying to kill you. i don't know something besides the pretty much stationary ones you had on there.
zzzzz
nothing new to present here... its just a bee flavoured side scrolling shoot em up.
nicely presented tho. just not enough to keep me entertained
really really really easy
its alright, fun once you're overpowered to the point of the game being a joke but that whole scheme of being overpowered makes it fun. especially just for being a mere bee.
Good effort!
The game's got a nice balance of easy and challenging - it can be hard to dodge projectiles, but screwing up doesn't immediately lead to dying. So the game is consistently frantic without feeling cheap. I also like that it's not excessively long. It's just right for the complexity and difficulty.
There are a few things I'd like changed. I don't mind incoming projectiles being so fast, but they're hard to see. Making them a completely different colour from anything else or flash would make them stand out better. If they're not displayed over everything else, they should be.
Also, so long as you store up bombs, which is easy, you'll never even see the end-level bosses. The full store of bombs shouldn't be enough to more than halve their health. That doesn't need boosting their health, just reduce the damage they take from bombs.
Finally, I'd like more story. That doesn't necessarily mean more animation, it could even mean less; a nicely worded title and end shot would work great (it's all we had in the SNES days, after all). There should be some kind of end sequence that requires the player to click to return to the title screen; it's too brief.
