Killer Bees!

Killer Bees is an action arcade game in which a swarm of white bees defends Earth from the invading Beebots of BEM. Guide the swarm over Beebots to sting them repeatedly, slowing them until they stop and are destroyed.

Red Beebots move clockwise while blue Beebots move counterclockwise. Destroyed Beebots leave grave markers that make movement more difficult, and each round introduces a new difficulty level across 26 levels.

Enemy Killer Bees become increasingly dangerous the longer they remain on screen, changing from green to blue and then red. The RoSHa Ray is the swarm's only defense, zapping attacking swarms and recharging whenever a Beebot is destroyed.

Scoring awards points for stings, zapped swarms, and destroyed Beebots. A round-ending bonus is based on the number of surviving bees and the current round.
