  • Charles 1.1 - 21 August 2024

    Welcome to the world post-launch! We're going to start the version numbers over again. Arguably, I should've just had versions 0 to 0.99 as the pre-launch versions. Aww well!

  • Charles Version 1.9 - 21 November 2023

    The last update before the launch! Thanks so much for following along and we're excited to show off the full experience. In the meantime, you'll notice some of the changes we've made, many more are behind the scenes in preparation for launch :) Changed how sensitive the note timings are. There is a 33% more generous margin of error! Overhauled arcade menu, added lots of opponents and changed how the decoration works Added keyboard scrolling for the arcade menu Revamped the cutscenes and dialogue potions of the game to look better Added more people to the credits! Thank you for filling out the feedback form :) Changed the night-time lighting outdoors Added some functionality for Charles to steer better at night, as long as you're going in the right direction

  • Charles Version 1.8 - 16 November 2023

    Getting very close to launch! Two weeks away! Most of the stuff we're working on is behind the scenes. Next week should be a bigger update than this one. :) Credits are more verbose Changed the "Play" menu Fixed a bug where the wrong opponent would get chosen on Night 1

  • Charles Version 1.7 - 8 November 2023

    ​Most of the work this time around was behind the scenes, but things are starting to become finalized. The cutscenes and dialogue stuff have been a huge undertaking. It's looking like we're going to change the way we display text in the game to address a few issues. We'll see y'all in a week for another small content update. Launch is just around the corner! Switched Smooth Samuel and Rotten Roger in the story mode Added Dialogues with the random bees that fly around. Try talking to them by pressing "E"

  • Charles Version 1.6 - 31 October 2023

    Hello again! A quick update for y'all. Still working on the big release, with lots of systems coming closer and closer to completion. The art and music are nearly done as well. A November 30th release date looks very strong. Added hard mode and easy mode for Arcade and Story! Changed the scoring system. Streaks/Combos shouldn't matter as much as before (they used to be the only thing that mattered basically) Changed the letter grade system on the recap screen Changed art on the title screen for better contrast with interactive elements Added a "quit to title" button in the options menu Added note trails As always, more work is being done behind the scenes. You'll see hints towards that stuff in the game as disabled content

  • Charles Version 1.5 - 24 October 2023

    Hello hello! Another medium-sized update. Lots of stuff going on behind the scenes, but some of it is also IN FRONT of the scenes. Here's a list of the stuff that was done this time around. We'll see you all next week for another update. Reduced CPU usage of the game by 50% Shrunk the overworld levels by 20%. This will make it seem like there are more bees and hazards without increasing the amounts. Added recap screen that shows the breakdown of your performance and your opponent's performance Changed how wrong-notes are displayed Added more flowers and pollen to all overworld levels Added a small cutscene when going into the hive after gathering pollen Upgraded visuals for boosting Disabled collisions with bees as an experiment, might bring it back in the future Lots of work in preparation for future content and full release, of course 😊 Changed some timings on the notes, hopefully, t…

Short description

Charles has always dreamed of one day becoming a master dancer. The only thing in his path? The cost! Charles must harvest pollen until he has defeated the biggest and baddest dancers in the world. Can he bee the very best? That no one ever was? It's up to you! 🐝

About this game

Meet Charles, your everyday pollen bee, harboring an extraordinary passion for dance. With your assistance, he'll pop and lock on a treacherous journey across multiple landscapes, confronting the finest dancers they can muster. Ultimately, his eyes are set on the glittering prize: The Golden Bee Trophy. Unfortunately, dancing doesn't exactly bring home the honey, especially when you're a bee with yet-to-be-proven talents. Thus, Charles juggles the world of dance with his day job, gathering pollen to fund entry into esteemed dance clubs and to dress himself in eye-catching attire. Can you have an adventure without a love interest? Yes, you could. But this adventure one has one anyway! Charles has been desperately trying to impress Beeanna, a girl (bee) from his hive. Custom Song? Custom note chart? Custom Art? Whatever you have, you can easily import into our game and see your creation come to life! We supply a tool that can help you make the note charts as well!

Price History Overview

USD uses SteamPulse's own locally recorded daily store snapshots, so this overview reflects the exact regional price history that SteamPulse has captured for this currency.

Coverage And Tracking Window

  • Snapshots: 1
  • Coverage: Sep 24, 2026 to Sep 24, 2026
  • Lowest observed: Free
  • Highest observed: Free

Charles the Bee's USD price history spans from Sep 24, 2026 to Sep 24, 2026, with 1 recorded snapshot across 1 calendar day. Each row records the available final price, listed base price, and discount metadata for that observation. Within this coverage the lowest recorded price is Free, the highest is Free, and the first visible tracked price is Free. These comparisons apply only to the snapshots SteamPulse holds; missing observations can contain changes that are not represented here.

For USD, SteamPulse uses locally captured regional storefront snapshots and does not reconstruct older prices with exchange-rate conversion. The chart and table show the values recorded for this exact currency from the stated coverage start. Additional snapshots extend that record, but they do not fill unobserved days or prove what the storefront displayed between observations.

Discount Windows And Sale Timing

  • Discount windows: 0
  • Discounted days: 0 days
  • Deepest markdown: No discount tracked
  • Latest sale window: No sale window tracked

Charles the Bee's tracked USD rows do not contain a discount window. This means no available snapshot in the stated coverage has usable discount metadata; it does not prove that the game was never discounted. Missing snapshots or archived rows without complete metadata can hide a sale, so SteamPulse does not infer pricing strategy from this absence.

If a later snapshot includes discount metadata, it will appear here with its recorded depth, price, date, and sale name when available. Until then, this section should be read only as a description of the available rows, not as evidence about the publisher's promotion policy.

Observed Price Changes And Stable Runs

  • Observed price drops: 0
  • Observed price rises: 0
  • Longest stable run: 1 day of uninterrupted daily tracking
  • Current run: 1 day of uninterrupted daily tracking

Outside rows carrying discount metadata, the tracked price has not recorded a separate price rise or drop yet. That means the observed undiscounted level has stayed stable across the snapshots SteamPulse currently holds. This is a statement about the recorded coverage only; it does not prove that an older or missing price change never happened.

The longest unchanged price stretch in the current record lasts 1 day of uninterrupted daily tracking at Free, from Sep 24, 2026 through Sep 24, 2026. Among rows without discount metadata, the longest unchanged run lasts 1 day of uninterrupted daily tracking at Free. The latest run records Free for 1 day of uninterrupted daily tracking as the same recorded undiscounted price. Run lengths describe consecutive stored observations only and do not establish that a price is permanent.

Latest Snapshot And Sales Context

  • Current price: Free
  • Current list price: Free
  • Distinct observed prices: 1
  • Source mode: SteamPulse local tracking

The latest tracked snapshot records Charles the Bee at Free in USD, with no active discount metadata. Across the available history SteamPulse has recorded 1 distinct final price in this currency. This supports comparisons with the lowest, highest, and most common values present in the retained record, subject to the stated coverage limits.

The live sales view and Steam sales record provide calendar context for these dates. A date overlap can be compared with a named Steam event, but it does not prove why a publisher changed a price. As new daily rows arrive, this overview recalculates its observed prices, discount windows, and run lengths automatically.
