🐝 PollenDrift
🌸 Bees, pollen, and hybrid seeds become a discovery game.
Overview
PollenDrift gives your server's bees a hidden ecological life. As bees pass flowers they pick up pollen tagged by biome and flower type, then carry it back to nearby beehives and bee nests. When a hive accumulates pollen from two or more sources, it has a chance to produce a unique hybrid seed — a specially named wheat seed that's logged in the nearest player's personal pollen almanac. Discoveries made while a player is offline are delivered when they next log in. A global pollen wind nudges bees in a direction that shifts over time, and harvesting wheat can occasionally grant a swiftness buff. Players can browse their almanac, check another player's finds, and inspect the current wind and live bee stats.
