  About

Inspiration

We wanted to highlight the crucial role bees play in sustaining our environment by bringing their world to life in a game. Our team was motivated to create an experience that not only entertains but also educates players about the importance of pollinators. The idea of working together and overcoming challenges resonated with us, which led to the concept of using collaboration among bees to achieve a common goal. Through this game, we aim to celebrate the power of community and the impact of even the smallest creatures on our ecosystem.

What it does

Our game involves a Honeybee on a journey to pollinate all the flowers around. When the player is away from the flower for too long, pollination production stops. The player can overcome this challenge by connecting with other bees, who will maintain the flowers for the community. Connecting with all the worker bees allows the player to free the Queen Bee.

How we built it

We created our project using Construct 3 as our game engine, Resprite, Piskel, and PixilArt for sprites, as well as Procreate for further editing the art assets.

Challenges we ran into

Construct does not have a lot of tutorials or guides compared to other Game Engines so we had to figure out a lot and a lot of the code could likely be made a lot better and a lot more efficiently

Accomplishments that we're proud of

We are proud of the fact that we managed to create so much original artwork for the game with all our sprites, and getting a lot of the coding to work too such as a timeout effect with the pollination function and functional 8 directional movement.

What we learned

We learned a lot about each other, how we all can contribute to a larger goal, and how to collectively learn skills from each other to make us all better both individually and as a team. We all worked together really well and look forward to our next GameJam/Hackathon to make another game together

What's next for Pollination Persuit

What's next for pollination pursuit: In the future, we would love to expand the game by adding more levels for more variety and adding more flower sprites as well that the player can pollinate. We would also love to add obstacles that make it more challenging for the player to free bees.
