Hey Beekeepers!
It's World Bee Day tomorrow, which means it's APICO's birthday too!
To celebrate, there'll be a Daily Deal from 20th May - 27th May for APICO + the OSTs (50% off!)
There'll also be some free key giveaways over on the APICO Twitter account throughout the day <3

3 years ago I was stuck in lockdown, and drew the first sketch that would become APICO - I had no idea where it would end up...

2 years ago I rewrote the first demo (written in HTML + vanilla Javascript!) into GameMaker and released it properly to the world, and was shocked to find so many other people loved this silly bee game!

1 year ago on May 20th the full game released, and it's wild to think how far it's come and I'm forever grateful for all the people who've played APICO and sent me such lovely messages about how much it meant to them. I never expected it to be much more than a fun side project but it's opened a door to letting me keep making silly games and expand APICO in ways I'd never thought I'd have been able to!

Tomorrow I've been lucky enough to get a Daily Deal with Steam, and APICO (along with Moth's wonderful OSTs!) will be 50% off for a whole week!! If you or your friends have been waiting for a big discount, this is the one! (This would also bee the perfect time for a nice review if you haven't got round to it, as a little birthday gift for your fav bee game wink wink nudge nudge :D)

There's still lot's more for us all to look forward to in the world of APICO and I appreciate all of you for beeing on this journey - I can't wait to see where it takes us all! <3

About Us
APICO is being created by two brothers, Elliott & Jamie, inspired by their love of old Minecraft mods, casual, and crafting games. They wanted to make something relaxing, intriguing, and semi-educational (just don't think about the Water Bees). Elliott builds nice things and Jamie makes sure he breaks them.
Save The Bees
Bees are integral to our gameplay, as they are to our real-world ecosystem. We want to promote bee conservation and will be donating a portion of sales towards national and international beekeeping charities.
Follow Our Progress
You can follow us on Twitter (https://twitter.com/apico_game), or join our Discord (http://apico.buzz/discord).
We post regular updates of our development progress on both channels as well as important announcements, stupid GIFs, cute pics of bees - what more could you want?
