Big Typing of the Hive

Welcome to a visceral, heart-pounding nightmare that tests the absolute limits of human endurance and psychological fortitude.

From the darkness arises amorphous, pulsating, yellow-and-black cosmic horrors.

They do not know fear. They do not know mercy. They only know that according to all known laws of aviation, there is no way a bee should be able to fly.

Your only defense? Your keyboard. Type for your life, or be overran by the jazz-loving swarm.

Yep. Typing of the Dead meets Bee Movie in Big Walk. True horror.

But how?

Pressing the "-" key to start the tying mode and turn the world to night.

Press + to spawn a zombee creature somewhere nearby with a text prompt.

Your goal is to type out the prompt perfectly to make the zombee vanish. A new zombee immediately replaces its fallen brethern with the next chronological line of the Bee Movie script.

A gauntlet of existential dread awaits you in a relentless, line by line recitation of cinema's greatest tale of a litigious Apis mellifera finding romance with a human florist.

Every additional press of + adds another zombee with another line of dialog. It can get crowded fast. Look for the yellow first letter in the swarm of white text to tell which phrase you must type next.

The long yogurt night does not end until the entire script is complete.

Let the dark ritual commence.

But why?

gestures vaguely around room, shrugs

this is clearly a cry for help.

But I do want a typing game but I don't want to type the Bee Movie.

As you shouldn't.

Fortunately, I included ten alternative json packages in the json folder.

[ Aesop's Fables, Little Women, Frederick Douglas, Tale of Two Cities, War and Peace, John Locke, Voltaire's Candide, totd original's wordlist, and some more bad meme references.] [Shoutout to Project Gutenberg]

You can even make your own phrases.json of whatever text you like.

I even included a tool to make this quicker.

• Get a txt file together of your source.
• Open up phrase-maker.html included in the mod's folder.
• Put your txt file as input.
• Set the minimum and maximum number of words per phrase. Hit convert. It'll go to your download folder.
• Option A: You can either name your file phrases.json and replace the default cursed script.
• Option B: Edit PhraseBankFile in the config file to point to yourfilename.json and keep the original around for later.
• Start the game, press - and then +. If the first prompt is about brains or the laws of aviation, you'll have to doublecheck your work.

But I hate the buzzing and keyboard sounds

Stop by gogogadgetjustice.typingofthehive.cfg in the config folder.

You can turn off SFX, put in your own sound files, alter the volumes, and more.

But if I don't press +, it's basically eternal night?

Until you finish what you have started and eliminate all the zombees by typing the entire script.

Feel free to try to beat the actual game entirely in the dark.

Edit NightTargetHour in the config file for eternal sunset even.
