Wild Hive Demo is now out! Play it on Steam: https://t.co/vwAP8tdo59

[Studio 42 @Studio42Apps]

@_QuickFang Yes it does!

My bee game has six playable queens and five of them break the rules in some deliberately unfair way. The sixth is balanced, sensible, and called Steadfast.

[Studio 42 @Studio42Apps]

Every queen bee in my indie game breaks the rules in a different way, and you have to pick one.

[Studio 42 @Studio42Apps]

Every year, the queen in my indie game passes a new law, and you don't get a vote.

[Studio 42 @Studio42Apps]

I put a stock market in my indie game about bees...

[Studio 42 @Studio42Apps]

@RestartCarl *Steamdeck. No worries!

[Studio 42 @Studio42Apps]

A playtester told me she reloaded her save because a bee named Doris didn't come back from foraging. There's a little obituary when that happens. I've been making this game for two years and that message is the proudest I've ever been of it.

[Studio 42 @Studio42Apps]

@RestartCarl Yes it will! There is a build optimised just for Steam. The controls aren't quite there yet in the demo, but they will be solid by the time of the full release.

[Studio 42 @Studio42Apps]

The main thing you do in my indie game never felt satisfying enough...

[Studio 42 @Studio42Apps]

@bigbadtechie Playtesting is finished sorry. But the demo is live https://t.co/HcA6qNvQ0O

[Studio 42 @Studio42Apps]

@BornAlchemist Play the demo then let me know👍

[Studio 42 @Studio42Apps]

My indie game has a problem I can NEVER fully fix

[Studio 42 @Studio42Apps]

The best feature in my indie game took just one afternoon

[Studio 42 @Studio42Apps]

You could break my indie game's economy just by playing really well. Not anymore.

[Studio 42 @Studio42Apps]

Almost half the people who tried my indie game never saw its best feature

[Studio 42 @Studio42Apps]

I delete this feature from my indie game

[Studio 42 @Studio42Apps]

@TheComedyKetzer Sorry, I've finished playtesting for the time being, but the demo will be out on Steam, hopefully this week! So I'd love your feedback on the demo 😁

[Studio 42 @Studio42Apps]

This indie dev is making a bee hive simulator with deep roguelike strategy.

- It has a realistic stock market where you sell your honey.
- Wasps can attack at any moment.
- If you don't store honey for winter your bees will die.

It's called Wild Hive. Would you play this?

[Studio 42 @Studio42Apps]

The most POINTLESS feature in my indie game is everybody's favourite

[Studio 42 @Studio42Apps]

I spent a week changing how my bees die in my indie game.

This is the only part of my game I hope you don't see.
