Challenging gameplay that warmly welcomes newcomers, yet leaves room for expert-level maneuvering
Developer’s Note:
Thanks so much for playing The Last Humble Bee!
I consider this game complete and am now focusing on new projects, but I’m really proud of what we made together. I may revisit Humble Bee down the road, but for now, I’m excited to keep moving forward.
Cheers, Jacob Weersing
