Draft:Bumbler Bee-Luxe

Bumbler Bee-Luxe is an insect-themed multidirectional shooter video game, developed and published by American studio Dadgum Games in 1997 for the Macintosh. In 1998, it was included in the Extreme Mac 12-Pack compilation from StarPlay Productions, which also contains Marathon and Glider Pro.

Gameplay
Bumbler Bee-Luxe is a 2D shooter in which the player is a bee, trying to protect its hive from invaders.

Development
The game was developed by Dadgum Games, a company founded in 1996. It was one of 12 games included in the Extreme Mac 12 Pack.

Reception
Next Generation reviewed the Macintosh version of the game, rating it four stars out of five, and stated that "The only downside is that the background never seems to change [...] and sometimes, due to the color scheme, we lost track of enemies against the honey-combed background. Overall though, an excellent effort."

Paul Pettitt for MAClan Journal commented that "Bumbler Bee-Luxe is an almost pointless game of being a bee and getting flowers."
