Published harvest loop and upgrades

According to the listing, every full harvest ring pops a honey pot onto the depot and sends coins to the treasury. Coins buy four upgrades labeled HIVES, BARROW, HAMLET and FOLK (keys 1 to 4), which the page says change bees, wheelbarrows, villagers and buildings over time.

Listed extras include Sunburst Fever for a temporary 2× harvest when tapping fast, a golden honey wagon on the south road, Endless mode after the Grand Honeycroft Citadel, automatic browser saves, pause when the tab is hidden, and a free 30-second 2× button. Exact upgrade costs, spawn rates and wagon timing were not measured.
