Bee 52
You're about to find out just what's involved for a young bee with a day-job. Gigantic spiders, sneaky ants and loathsome slugs are just a few of the meanies who'll get in your way when you're bee number 52. You're hardly defenseless though, and with enough speed, skill and firepower you may get through the day - despite being heavily outnumbered. Let your nose, or rather proboscis, lead the way to the flowers and don't let anyone - or anything - get in your way! B52 - you're cleared for take off!
Bee 52 is a side-scrolling video game published by Codemasters for the Nintendo Entertainment System in 1992.
A Commodore 64 version was completed in 1993, but was not published due to Codemasters withdrawing from the C64 market. After reaching an agreement with Codemasters, the programmer sold the game himself via mail order.

About This Game
Players guide Bee 52, an unusually equipped honeybee armed with a sucker-like mouth capable of firing projectiles, through twelve progressively challenging environments spanning a backyard, swamp, and residential interior. Each level tasks the insect with locating and harvesting nectar from scattered flowers across sidescrolling terrain, requiring a return trip to the hive after visiting three blooms to deposit honey into a gradually filling jar. The journey grows perilous as ants, grasshoppers, dragonflies, and carnivorous plants emerge as obstacles, with later stages demanding the complete visitation of every available flower to progress toward victory.
