Small update

We just pushed a small maintenance update. This build includes the following:

Upgraded our MonoGame-SDL2 branch to the latest code (FNA). This should fix a rendering issue that one user was having.
Upgraded to the latest version of the Steam SDK. This just fixes an occasional bug that made the Steam avatars too big on Linux sometimes.
Fixed the granting of Ladybug achievements. They were sometimes granting even if the Ladybug wasn't the piece that moved.
Made the Online Games menu screen not flicker when it updates the list of games.

Officially licensed version of the "Mensa Select" award-winning board game!

Hive is a board game with a difference. There is no board! The pieces are added to the playing area thus creating the board. As more and more pieces are added the game becomes a fight to see who can be the first to capture (surround) the opposing Queen Bee.

Features:

Play locally or online.
Play against the Computer - AI with five difficulty levels.
Includes "hot-seat"/"pass-n-play" mode for players with who want to share one mouse/keyboard or gamepad.
Full 3D with camera-control
Switch seamlessly between playing with mouse/keyboard and gamepad.
Dozens of Steam Stats & Achievements.
Same expansions as table-top version: the Pillbug, the Ladybug, and the Mosquito expansions are available as DLC.
Each expansion can be turned on/off for any individual game. Play with these pieces online even if your opponent does not own the expansions! (they will also get to use the expansions during the game)
Asynchronous play - you can play even when your opponent is offline.
The Hive board game is a winner of many awards including "Mensa Select", "Dr. Toy: Product of Excellence", "Spiele Hits", "International Gamers Awards", and "Juego del año".
