When it comes to the game of the red and white machine "Little Bee", I believe most players are very familiar with it.
I don't know if everyone will feel this way in the future: this game is not liked by all players even in the era of red and white machines. More players can't wait to change the game after playing for a while. Because the game is really too monotonous, the scene and enemies have hardly changed, and there is no opening screen, and I don't know how many levels there are. Therefore, many players can't stick to many levels.
And the difficulty of this game is not low, and it is announced that it is over after the three lives are dropped.
What we need to know, though, is that this game was born in the late seventies and early eighties. And this kind of play was very popular at that time. The earliest game of its kind was Cosmic Invaders, which opened up this new gameplay at that time. The slightly more popular games in this period are not "Contra" and "Super Mary", but "Snake", "Brick King", "Pac-Man", "Frog Crossing the River"... These seem boring games
So Little Bee was also very popular, and it was popular for many years, until we didn't play this game until the early nineties. The red and white game that emerged at this time was already very rich, including works from the late eighties. That's why we find Little Bee very boring compared to these games.
When there was no game card to choose from, we would also quietly want to beat the game, but in the end, we found that the game seemed to be a bottomless pit, and there was no level restriction at all.
The music and sound effects of the little bee should be a very important memory for many players!
There seem to be only two versions we can play on the red and white machine, the other version is the FC version of "Big Bee" from the 1981s.
The emergence of "Big Bee" has made the gameplay of this game have a certain innovation. As soon as they appear, enemies will fly out, during which time the player can attack directly. In this case, there is not much left by the time they are lined up.
Although the gameplay of the game has been retained, the protagonist's planes and enemy soldiers are no longer a generation.
The essence of this game is that it allows the little boss to absorb our plane, and then save it and then it can be combined.
The little partner who played for the first time was estimated to have suffered a loss, and after being absorbed, all the planes, including those that were absorbed by themselves, were eliminated. In this case, you really lose an airplane.
As long as the small boss who controls the aircraft is killed, the original absorbed aircraft will be returned to its place. In this way, the two aircraft can be combined to achieve a double shooting effect. The game is also very easy to play.
It is worth mentioning that when the player rewards life, he also directly rewards two lives!
Xiaobian tried to play for several hours in a row, playing to 148 levels, but the level seems to be a bottomless pit, I don't know if there are 999 levels. But I couldn't hold on any longer.
So, what was the arcade version of the "Little Bee" series like?
<h1>1979 Little Bee 1</h1>
Namco's "Little Bee" released in 1979, FC is the version transplanted, the gameplay and music are almost the same. But to be honest, playing on FC seems to have more feeling. You know, this was a very popular game in the 1980s!
In the same year, there were other companies that released "Little Bee", but the game was extremely difficult, and there was a time limit, and the editor tried it, even if it was a hundred shots and a hundred times, the time was very urgent. After fighting all the enemy soldiers, there will be a boss. The player must eliminate the boss before passing the level.
<h1>1980 Little Bee 2</h1>
The orthodox sequel of Little Bee 2 has also changed to a certain extent compared with the previous game, which has added time slots and the form of enemy soldiers. In addition, the bullets fired are not side lines.
<h1>1981 Arcade edition of Big Bee</h1>
This game is basically the same as the gameplay on the red and white machine. It can also allow the small boss to absorb the fighter, and then rescue it and merge the shots.
<h1>1984 Big Bee 3</h1>
The aircraft type has been added, and the range of movement of the aircraft is no longer limited to the bottom.
This generation is more innovative than the previous version, and players can absorb enemy aircraft to form a row after rescuing the fighter, so that the shooting range is very wide and the play is more enjoyable.
Enemy soldiers can be absorbed and used for their own purposes

Our childhood is only because of the red and white machine that it is so different, and "Little Bee" is a more representative game, which has become our best memory.
