Hey all!

We finally have a playable build to show here 🐝, we are currently running a playtest which covers what the steam demo will be (~30min gameplay).

If you have the time after you are done playing (at any point), we would be very grateful if you could fill the quick feedback form. No biggie if not! just have fun :P

The game is about a family of bears running their honey farm, you collect rarer and better bees, which make better honey, sells for more, upgrade/decorate the farm, and so on.

Small note, it's on the 'softer' side of incrementals, since it does not have a prestige mechanic. Getting to the late game, collecting everything, etc will surely take a long time in the full game, but the farm you create does not reset.

Let us know what you think! 🐻

Hello! 🐻

We are looking for Japanese localization for Bottled By Bears, a cozy management idle game about a family of Bears running a honey farm.

The game is not heavy on text, mostly instructions and UI + some creative names for the bees you collection (though I guess we could leave them in katakana and use the English name).

All in all, I imagine the amount of words would be:
- Store description: about 200 words
- Game so far: ~1200 words
- What's left: maybe ~200-300 extra words

Steam Page: https://store.steampowered.com/app/4390080/Bottled_by_Bears/

If anyone is interested please leave a comment or DM me 🙇 - if you have some past localized titles to refer us to, even better.

A few weeks ago we shared a gif of Bottled By Bears🍯 here with a warm reception🫰, our upcoming cozy management game about a family of bears running their honey farm where you open bee packs as the main mechanic (so, you need to bee lucky, he).

As motioned in the previous post, it's on the softer side of gacha: one-time purchase (Steam first in 2026, then likely console and mobile), all is in-game economy.

We finally have our announcement trailer out! Let us know what you think :D

Hey all! 🐝

We're working on polishing visuals and UI for Bottled By Bears (Steam), a cozy management game where a bear family runs a honey farm. You collect bees, grow flowers, bottle honey types, and decorate.

Looking for feedback on the screenshot selection for promotional material (what else would you like to see shown for example), and their color balance and composition.

Thanks!!

hey all! 🐻

We're a small team working on Bottled By Bears 🍯, a cozy management game where you grow a tiny honey farm into a full operation.

You start with a single hive and slowly expand. Open beepacks to discover bees > rarer bees produce better honey, which also depends on the flowers that grow in the field. You sell jars to regular customers and also fill big bulk orders for specific honey types, which means building a smart bee roster on the limited hive space to actually pull them off.

Aside from that there are also collection (bees and jars) and decoration mechanics if you want to personalized your farm :D

Steam page is up to wishlist if it looks interesting to you! (releasing in 2026)

No AI used for assets visuals: all the game final assets are hand-drawn! our artist joined 3 months ago and we are getting rid of all placeholder assets little by little 🫡 (thank god)
