Game Off Submission Complete!

Hey there.

New build is now available and has been submitted as our Game Off 2021 entry! Here's the list of changes:

Additions/Changes

• All buildings now contain props.
• The lab now contains three test tubes - each with different coloured liquid in them (not that you'd likely notice anyway ;P).
• The selected object summary bar at the bottom has been replaced with two separated UI panels. Both will only be visible if an object has been selected.
• Added an explosion effect for destroyed buildings.
• Attack animation speeds for units will now match the attack rate.
• Friendly units will now find a new attack target within a certain radius if they have no current target.
  

Fixes

• Fixed some rare edge cases where pathfinding would fail to return a valid path.
• Pathfinding to the hive is now more efficient for both units and enemies.
• Re-added missing collider for daisy stamen. Now bees can actually gather nectar from daisies!
• Fixed issue where bees and wasps would not attack each other.
• Fixed incorrect scaling of attack rate for units and enemies.
• Units will now always face their target when attacking.
• Fixed issue where killing a wasp in an incomplete enemy wave could cause a crash when the wave attempted to launch its attack on the hive.

Known Issues

• Enemies may not move to occupy grid cells closer to their target that were previously occupied by a unit that has recently died.
• As the size of the enemy waves increases, there is a chance the game will temporarily freeze when the wave launches its attack on the hive. This should now be reduced, though some problems may persist with larger enemy waves.
• Withered daisies can have nectar harvested from them. In a future release these will need to be restored by scientists before they can be harvested from.

We have submitted this build, but will continue to update as required up until the jam ends! Enjoy!
