Bomb Bee (1979) is one of the first video games developed by Namco, a fixed-screen shooter in the Galaxian tradition, with a bee as the protagonist ship firing at waves of enemy insects. It directly served as the basis for Cutie Q, released the same year with a different skin over an almost identical mechanic.
Today its value is mostly archaeological: it's a piece of Namco's prehistory, useful for understanding where the company came from before becoming, just a year later, synonymous with Pac-Man.
