The Magic Flute

Or, Bee Proud of Me, Dad!

After a single semester of pre-med, you decide to major in Music instead. When you break the news to your father, he’s none too pleased. Fortunately, you can use your whistle to summon things to impress him. If you put on a good enough recital, he might just agree to pay for the rest of your education. Your dad has always been a difficult man to impress, but you're in luck. Your whistle has been touched by magic.

All it will take is some willpower to overcome the stage fright…

The game is a lot of fun! Just a heads up, there is a bug in the latest version that makes it so sunflowers don't generate any willpower or pride.

Neither does the summon that comes next, penguins. Nor do they when they having several or after being upgraded. They're just completely broken. 

It was far too many clicks to find that out. I'm not interested in clicking hundreds more times to explore further.

Thanks so much! The latest version should fix this bug. Let us know if you find anything else!

For a game that's based on clicking on a brain, that brain is really bad at detecting clicks. Also, a mute option would be nice.

We just added a Jukebox to the main menu that lets you mix and match summoning tracks to your liking. Enjoy the music!

This Game is so fun and addictive
