all three would be great^^... any one of them you'd like to show. Orbiting, turning towards another object, moving there, following... doesn't matter, i'm interested in it laugh

Heheheh... That was weird, but very interesting and a cool concept. I know it's only a protype, but here are my suggestions:

1) Good graphics and effects, of course (sure you've already planned that)

2) Detailed storyline so players understand who they are, what they're doing, and why.

3) There were some moments where I felt like I was just watching and waiting for something to happen, rather than engaging in gameplay. I think players need a lot of tasks to complete at once, so they're never sitting idle. One idea I have would be to make it so there isn't different levels, but instead, one large level with "zones". You could travel from zone to zone, expand your colony, fight other bee colonies/enemies, etc. That would definitely keep the player very engaged and interested.

Overall though, cool idea! I hope to see how the end product turns out! Hope my advice helps! laugh

And these were almost the moments I liked most. Just sitting back and watching the bees and drones form geometric figures while listening to chilling music. I absolutely love that "just watching" part... ^^

Have played you prototype 10 times. Will play it more often... *in love*
