After running a lot of Bee Dungeons, there’s one thing I really wish could be improved.
Problem: When unlocking the Queen’s room, if the dungeon requires several keys/lanterns, messing up the sequence forces you to redo the entire thing. On larger dungeons this often means repeatedly walking long distances back and forth, which feels more frustrating than fun.
Suggestion: Once you successfully use the correct lantern/key, it should stay activated (glowing green or otherwise marked). If you fail on a later lantern, only that lantern should reset: it goes out, you fight the bees, and then you continue trying to find the right one without restarting the whole sequence. Removes the tedious backtracking that kills the fun.

Re: Bee dungeon Quaility of life fix
bee dungeon end puzzle is pure tedium and I often see bee dungeons where someone got to the end and just didnt bother to finish and Ive left loads of them myself
who can be bothered to figure out in what sequence to press 6 lanterns that are miles apart and dump 6 big bees on ur head every time u fail
all for what? a small heart and a bee wing? the bee wing is nice sure but not worth this effort

Re: Bee dungeon Quaility of life fix
Honestly this would be such a nice change, the difference in time completing a dungeon can take is insane based on your luck. It's like a 5-10 minute difference from getting it on the first try and getting the pattern wrong a few times.
