Love the story and the concept as playing an enemy from within-- the controls and mechanics are super ANTuitive (hehe), and the music paired with your little mushroom friend is so fitting!! I wish it was a little less linear because the world seems like it's built to be open world but nothing happens unless you follow the path, but other than that, super well done! C:

Thank you so much for your nice comment! Game dev is new to us and it is awesome to see our concept (and the puns :D) resonate so well with people.
And thanks for that feedback regarding the linearity, with more time we would've loved to hide some secrets. The stag beetle boss was originally intended to be in an optional area.

Oh my gosh the intro! The animation, and the graphics, music, everything! I I really like this concept paired with an insect theme. Loved the enemies! Art was gorgeous and I liked the story! The ant being ostracized for having spores was totally unexpected. Super cool project! Even little things like the ant that was trying to climb the flower to get to the aphid, lots of great little details!

I really liked that intro :3 Really funny and enjoyable game!! Nice graphics and music, keeps you into the history. Its kinda difficult for me, I cannot dodge from the ants attack xD I will keep trying until I can finish the game! And looking forward  to follow it if you do more levels from it! Really well done :3

I'm glad you enjoyed it so far! Maybe I can give you some tips if you want to come back to it :D You can try to circle closely around the enemy ants. Makes it easier to dodge. Apart from that you can use your dash (space bar) to dodge. While dashing you are invincible.

We didn't tell the whole story as we intended, so who knows, there may come more levels!

Wow! Nice! The first time I played, WASD wouldn't work, but I reloaded and got to play and it was really fun! Really nice aesthetic and I loved the sound design and creatures! Nice work all around!

Amazing art, so well animated feels professional. Nice crisp fast combat with a good escalation scale of abilities and challenges. And the adorable mushroom friend. The only issue I had was I got a little lost after the arena. The music and sound were nice and clean.

Thank you for this kind comment! We're glad you enjoyed the game.
