All events Players around this date Read on Steam

This update reworks how the hive grows in the mid and late game, adds new things to do on the meadow, and fixes the most requested annoyances (Alt-Tab, hello).

Upgrades that keep going 📈

Many tree nodes are now repeatable — buy them again to level up. Owned nodes show their level and the price of the next one.
Honey x16 and x32 are in, plus Honey Boost: +25% honey per level, no cap.
Grow Speed, Grid Ring and Storage are each a single node you keep leveling instead of three separate ones. Existing saves convert automatically.
Gardener bees got their own line: Green Thumb (plant more often) and Composting (see below).

Aura, reworked ✨

Lab: Aura is now visible — pulsing rings spread from your hive across the meadow.
Flowers inside the rings give bonus pollen. Level Lab: Aura to raise the bonus and Aura Reach to widen the rings.
Burst and Bloom have been retired; Instant Grow and Aura carry the late game.

Life (and death) on the meadow 🥀

Flowers can rot. When an old flower withers it may stay behind, grey and useless, blocking its tile. Click it to clear the spot — or buy Composting and let your gardeners tidy up as they fly.
Plant what you want: click an empty tile to choose a Dandelion, Rose or Tulip (handy for lining up 2x2 SUPER flowers).
Bigger meadows grow more flowers. Flower growth now scales with your grid size, so expanding actually raises your income.
Storage is real now: honey stops at your storage cap, shown on the HUD with a meter. Spend it or upgrade Storage!

Shop & interface 🛒

Buy bees in bulk — x1 / x10 / x25 buttons (or Shift-click).
Cleaner HUD: honey, capacity, multiplier and income on one line.
Aura and Instant Grow status live in the side panel with icons.
The upgrade tree fits the window at any UI scale, and scrolls if it still can't.
Title screen: Continue / New Game.

Options & fixes 🔧

New Options screen (title screen and pause menu): window mode, language, volume, UI scale.
Alt-Tab works — the game now runs as a borderless window by default. Prefer exclusive fullscreen? It's in Options.
Fixed clicks landing away from the cursor on Windows with display scaling (125% / 150%).
Old saves load fine; your progress carries over.

Thanks for playing — and for the feedback. Keep it coming! 🐝

Game update2 Sep 2026v0.3.3 — The Ascension Update🐝 Ascending finally means something: every repeatable upgrade now has a per-run cap, and each ascension raises it. New · Ascend to raise your caps.
