A downloadable game
Play as Herb, a hybrid of a honeypot ant and a bumblebee on your quest to collect as much honey as possible... using your stomach. And a big jar.
Made for the 2023 Gain Jam!
Since the game is still super indev, this page is also under construction and will later be updated with more information.

Don't rush into anything, work at your own pleasure, the main thing is to report progress occasionally
its almost one year from moment you started making second game about it, we tired of waiting to be honest
Can you make a Mobile version
this is a minor
hey, i just discovered this game! this is really fun, and i was wondering if you were still working on it? im not pressuring you id just like to know bc im excited for a sequel but its been a while and i dont know if you completely stopped or if its just taking a while. take your time!
it's been a long time
yeah!
can u atleast split the updates on parts like part 1 part 2 and etc parts please
ok i shut
Please stop. Game development takes TIME, and you complaining DOES NOT HELP.
new Idea... even if you made it to your max limit of 24 why not add a tier 4 or an even more bigger size to the point rolling is your only option even if breaking your maximum stomach capacity limits 2 or 3 times but sadly a new item in store for purchase would be called "honey pot helpers" which can help roll you around and store honey as you move or another movement option in the store "boulder roll" which allows you to have the ability to roll all on your own but your deeply squishing yourself against the floor and have an even harder time trying to get around without getting dizzy so moving too much would invert your controls but you can expand as huge as possible without becoming completely immobile by your helpers which have a strength limit which only depends on how big and heavy your size is.
sorry about the idea mess... my mind keeps on spilling out even more ideas each time i come up with something whatever comes out from inside my head.
Yay a sequel will BEE hehe
what date will post-jam start
Not sure- probably later today in all honesty, I plan on working on the first post-jam update later today so.
Really enjoyed this, sequel potential is there :)
I think what u need to make time changing i mean when its night evrything its dark blue and golden honey would shine
Tbh i want more phases of thickness
Can u make some music and sounds for game like geting hit by goblin, eating honey and etc and u would change voluem it in options
why there no options?
I didn't have anything to put there, it's a placeholder.
Makes no sense
It's for when I do add options, I put it there so I don't need to make an options menu later on.
could you perhaps add sandbox mode so that way there is no end screen but you can do whatever you want even spawn any type of honey or perhaps a new attack feature that fattens up enemies, or just a new mode that is "peaceful mode" so there is no enemy mobs, but there is also no end as well or at least a total amount of days until the ending part is here.
Good idea bro, not gona lie 👍
Btw i got ideat for dif. modes on med there will be less trees u would cary only 3 honey with going limits there will be more goblins and some smart goblins. On hard mode will be only 5 trees 1 honey only with out going beyond limits no normal goblins smart goblins only and there will be alot of goblins like 50. btw i got another idea how harder dif. is how more expensive will be upgrates i hope you will do some of my idea Moonjump! (sorry for a lot of text😅)
I still wait for android ver. of this game but im sure you'le be avaibel to do this Moonjump :)
This update soo cool thx Moonjump!
How many upgrades are there to the max weight?
And side note, if I could, I'd support longer development on this. Is very neat game.
don't worry, I plan on continuing development post-jam!
max upgrate of weight 3 and max form looks like that
Game looks lovely, but the game is a bit slow. There's no real "growth" gameplay wise so a lot of it is a bit samey, but lasts a bit too long to make it a non issue. So some ways that it could improve could be possibly some kind of automation or a way to change up the gameplay. Additionally the jar kinda fills up way too slow. I adore the bee though, we need more bee wg
A few people have suggested automation, so I am starting to consider it, honestly. Also, the jar filling up slowly was a recent change because it used to fill up too fast; I still need to tweak it somewhat.
Nice to hear. I forgot to add this in the original comment but getting to the later stages of weight doesn't really feel worth it with how slow you become and how slowly you deposit your honey as well. I actually ended up spending an entire day just trying to fatten up the bee and ended up not having enough time to put away all of the honey I got from it. I think a more in game (non score related) reward should be done for higher weights, a honey multiplier maybe?
Increasing the speed at which the honey is deposited would probably be a good idea; currently it's really slow, yeah.
would love is there is a way to automate it (or to increase the days that you have)
Tbh i want mobile suport like android and apple
Since this game would look good on android and apple
And i feel like what is game what inspirated with honeycombat with the game i told about
First time played this game and it reminded me with coin purse kobold bit dif upgrates are good made and i like all fatten up phases!
Very cute! <3
True i like it 👍
