one word, well, two: [b][i]the s h i t [/i][/b] grab it and enjoy the colorful little rough. joyfully pump those nasty bees, cause Stefan Preuss saw it the right way: bees really are hella nasty creatures. (beware: tough one at "normal level"...)

Hummingz is a cute little version of the arcade game Centipede. It has nice colors/design and it´s fun trying to get a high score or beat your own score. I haven´t come past level 4 yet, so I will continue playing after more than 1 1/2 hours, which isn´t bad if you get it for 3,99. There are some minor things which could be imrpoved, like a better resolution option (fullscreen) for PC or to turn off automatic fire. And for the negative commentary concerning the topic of mobile games - It´s a good thing that mobile games are also playable on PC as long as they are good, which I think Hummingz is.

pretty clunky. starts off too fast in the beginning. should start out slow and work your way up. also should turn auto fire off and let the play decide when to fire. also make the mouse disappear when the game starts. it is very distracting to see the mouse while playing. overall fun game but until these are fixed i will have to thumbs down.

Mobile game port. Steam is not a platform for ported mobile games.
