Hi,

I hate to say it by I'm hating the bee shooting game.
I've managed to get two bees out of the way but with the one that goes into the bin there's just not enough time to hit the squirrel.
Maybe my system is too slow but by the time the squirrel animation ends, the bee has already flown away from the bin.
Make it easier for people!!

    Hi again,

    I did it! actually before I thought the bee was falling into the bin but instead it was falling really close.
    Anyway, I still think that hitting the bees requires way too much skill.
    An there doesn't seem to be any option to skip that section.
    And did I mention the music? it drives you around the twist after a little while.

    Anyway, I still love this game :)

    Reduce the graphics setting/resolution will help in such "arcade" sequences in TT games. The same goes for the driving games in Sam and Max.

    I found that rather than chasing the bees around i left the cursor at the point the bee would pause over the bin and just hit the button.

    Yes, but for me it's also difficult to get the timing of the shot right.
    And the valid shooting regions seem to be too small imho

    I have to agree, I really hate that arcarde part. Actually, I did not even get WHAT I was supposed to do, shoot three bees and then? Shoot the squirrel? What is the reason for that?

    I dunno, to me it looked pretty easy. And fun, fun, fun :)

    It's not difficult if you have a machine that runs the game properly. It's probably because it runs too slowly on your PC.

    Hey, I managed it no problems, and I was using the pad to aim.

    If I tried using the pad to aim on a FPS I'd be dead quicker than you could say "fire!"

    what you're supposed to do is trap 3 bees. One in the trashcan, the other in a hole in a tree, the other in the wrong trousers. The point of the squirrel is after the trashcan lid gets shot off it falls into part of the fence that's loose, so when the squirrel jumps down it hits the fence making the lid flip back onto the trash can.
