JOURNEY - A Bee Swarm Tribute Animation

HAPPY 5 YEARS BEE SWARM SIMULATOR!!!

Absolutely stellar music composed by *John G. Music!* Huge huge thanks to him for lending his musical magic for this tribute! (music commission). Go check out their stuff!!

Thanks Bee Swarm for the great memories you've given me.
Thank you Onett for the incredible work you've done for this game.
and Thank you to all my viewers and the community, for sticking with me and helping me find a place.

If you can tell by this extremely high effort project, animating was always my passion, never in any lifetime I would imagine I'd ever make something this huge. Surprisingly, Bee Swarm has had a much higher impact on finding my creative spark than I thought. Can't wait to find out what's next for me ^^

Thanks for Watching 💛

The animation is so beautiful, the backgrounds, the shading, everything is so mesmerizing! I can't believe Bee Swarm Simulator was created 5 years ago... Time flies so fast.

I was 10 years old when i first learnt about bee swarm and, since im spanish, i didnt understand what the bears said or any of the item's description. And since i wanted to know, i started studing english more. Now i have a C1 in english, and im 4 years younger than any of the people that did the exam. if i could meet onnet i would thank him for making this game, because if it never existed, I wouldn't have gotten this far



Pd: thank you for reading and commenting! I would have never imagined That my story could have gone so far, so thank you and good luck in your Life! :D
Pd of pd: para el colega español, mucha suerte en el examen, seguro que acabas sacandotelo! :)

1:21 I love the detail that if you look closely, some of the stars in the constellations are the star amulet abilities

[red-right-hand]

and the fact he kept his first basic bee throughout the entire journey shows how much he cares

[Justharrisonistherizzler]

Remember the first basic egg? The happiness on your face when you got your first gifted? First mythic? Look at where you are now and thank Onett for the wonderful memories you made with your fictional bees. Much more will come. Happy 5 years BSS!

This was so beautiful! Love the effort and work you put into this just for us! HAPPY 5TH YEAR ANNIVERSARY BEE SWARM SIM!

[SoreEye]

This feels like straight up nostalgia.

Sometimes it's not about the goal...
It's the journey as it compiles all the moments from the beginning all the way up to the end. The end was the goal however the story is finished and all there's left is to do other things that aren't as memorable unlike the things we've done thru the journey.

Happy 5th anniversary, Bee Swarm... :')

I love how you took the small world of bee swarm we have and expanded it SIGNIFICANTLY and gave the fields a lot of feel and life to them. You really make this little world we have in been swarm feel more lively with how you animated it and made everything bigger. You made this really feel how the journey of a beekeeper is. overall, beautiful work.(I hope onett see this animation)

[zayspace]

This was simply unreal, every single step of the way through progression, with everyone slowly joining in for that finale, fantastic work as always AR!

[flactt]

I cannot believe how beautiful the animation is, the amount of nostalgia it gives is also UNREAL

[Noobsler]

Bee swarm wasn’t any other simulator, it was something special, something to keep memory with, which is what you made along the way

[qKitti]

I miss playing Bee Swarm with my friends while progression was fast. Even if I don't play it anymore, I'll always love this game. Phenomenal animation! :))

[rusyditgm]

As a big fan of Bee Swarm, this tribute animation brought tears to my eyes. It's beautifully crafted, and you can feel the love and dedication that went into making it. The storytelling is fantastic, and it captures the spirit of the game perfectly. I'm blown away!

[OdioSunday_Nightz]

This game holds a very special place in my heart. I no longer have time to play, and the inconsistent updates caused me to stop playing. Bee swarm will always hold a place in my heart, and your animation is beautiful.

[Djmonlanther]

I love how Basic Bee stays with the player for the entire journey. It really shows its loyalty and dedication.
this animation is also incredibly amazing showing the evolution of bss over the years. I still can’t believe it’s been 5 years ago

[vettyyt]

It’s amazing how even in this animation, only basic bee has always stuck with us the entire way.

[BeeBoi]

As a certified Bee Swarmer, this is truly amazing. Glad to have witnessed this.

[Notriaxe]

Its been a long ride. 5 years worth of gameplay, over 300 days of gameplay (been playing on and off for 5 years). The game will always have a place in my heart. Thank you Onett, and thanks for the amazing memories. Especially you bigdog AR.

[glob]
