Gameplay
You must clear all bees, hives and honeycombs to advance levels.
Attacking uses power. The more power you have, the faster your shots. Stop firing to regenerate power. Keep an eye on your power meter.
Blow smoke to freeze honeycombs, slow bees and block shots. You can only shoot honeycombs when they're frozen.
An extra life is awarded when you reach 200 bee kills.
Complete challenge mode to unlock endless mode and see how long you can last.

Thanks to Robby Duguay for making the music and making it available. BuzzKill features 3 tracks from his Pico-8 Jukebox.
Super thanks to the Pico-8 community. BuzzKill was built on top of many code snippets found on the forums, and without those it wouldn't have gotten this far.
And while you're at it, check out my other game carts including Invader Overload and Bullet Cave.
