The bees learning to fight off invasive #hornets
9 February 2024
Katherine Latham"The buff-tailed #bumblebee, one of Europe's most common bumblebee species, is adapting to fight back – thanks to a remarkably successful defence strategy it already has in their evolutionary arsenal.
"The tactic is simple: when attacked, the bumblebees drop to the ground, taking the hornets down with them. This either causes the hornet to lose its grip, or the bee raises its sting and tussles until the hornet gives up.
"The buff-tailed bumblebee did not evolve alongside Asian hornets – their native predators include badgers, birds, wasps and spiders – so O'Shea-Wheller describes this as 'an evolutionary coincidence'.
" 'This defence that already works against their natural predators also works against the hornets,' he says. European honeybees, on the other hand, have no such 'co-evolved system' to protect themselves from these new predators."

While looking for examples for games similar to what I want to make with #HornetEngine, I noticed that Wasteland 2 seems to be extremely close to what I have in mind in gameplay and graphics (basically a blend of Fallout and Jagged Alliance 2 in a 3D engine), and it's available on PS4 so it can be played with a controller.
Only played half an hour in the first area yet, and I already have so many notes about what I like and what I would do very differently. 😄

@ericsfraga We have (as usual) large #hornet nests in various places, eg in a shed. Under one are large amounts of dead insects (including a really smelly, black “juice”) and eg smaller #wasp parts, which these “Vespa carbro” eats. Might be the same at your location: large hornets feasting on smaller wasps, reducing their numbers. Last year I could study a constant flow of many, large worker hornets continuously airlifting bees and other polinators from a large, blooming Common Ivy. #insects #garden #biotope

I just learned about Fear and Hunger, and if I were making #HornetEngine as a horror game, I think it would be just like that.

And now I am thinking really hard about what this could mean for my game idea that deliberately goes for an early 2000s graphics fidelity that targets a 70s/80s adventure movie aesthetic.
Simply going with high quality stock sounds of nature now feels like it would be completely out of place.

So this now took me about 8 hours of work in total today (that's how I spend my Saturdays), but I made a second color palette that I think is even nicer.
15 main hues, 9 steps of decreasing brightness, 6 steps of decreasing saturation, and an 11 step gray scale. Which makes an attractive 16x16 grid. 😄
Decreasing saturation by 10% steps produced more indistinguishable whites than I'll need, while more greens and a red purple will be useful.

First attempt at creating a color palette for #hornetengine.
Feels like a start in the right direction. But man, creating a good yellow is hard.I want my primary yellow to be a vibrant ocher dust. There's going to be a lot of that on the ground and in buildings in #kaendor. Ever so slightly orange, but definitely not greenish. Vibrant, but still dusty. And not too bright.
The perfect shade exists in my mind, but getting it with just three sliders will take more practice. -
