How does your game fit the theme?
You have to balance the weight of the raft when you carry fruit so it doesn't tip over (scale as in a weight scale), also in the small world of ants

Hes like the ultimate ant! How did he make a boat he doesnt have hands great game design!

I think it lacks a bit of juice fun, like sound. I wish I could automate it but for a jam in 48H that’s like very great :D I didn’t play much by basically, just putting fruit on the center was enough to stay balanced.

Very cool game, though the camera should move a lot faster when zooming and panning.

Pretty cool, but some of the balance mechanics were tricky to understand. A little more info on that would have been awesome.

Developer(+1)

agreed, we could have leaned into that mechanic more (pun intended)

I love the idea, agree with what others have said about sound and tutorial over all.

Cool pun in the name! I also like how everything looks. Some audio and tutorials would be great and the raft could go faster. But the progression is pretty good though. Well done!

Nice graphics, but this game definitely needs more instructions. And sound, of course. I t seems like there is quite the idea behind it, but maybe it would have needed a bit more time.

I was a bit confused on what to do at first (but it might be me sorry) once you understood everything, it was pretty clear and engaging !

Developer(+1)

Not just you, we could have had a more immersive tutorial

Concept on the game is clever and it's got charm. Good effort.

Looks great, with an awesome idea! Loved how micromanagey it gets when you have three boats and factories working at the same time, and positioning the fruit so that it wouldn't capsize the boat was really fun as well! One bit of critique might be to make the game move a bit faster, in terms of both camera, boat, and ant speed when they take things back to their house. I just found myself waiting around a whole lot of the time, twiddling my thumbs rather than actually being engaged in the game. The camera was also a bit buggy, but other than that its a great game and concept that I'd like to see expanded upon in the future!

Nice visuals, is there no sound or am I missing something? Also I didn't really understand what was going on, I sailed over with fruit, but the ant didn't take any? :( EDIT: Didn't realize it says what to bring)

Developer

No sound, we ran out of time :(

Oh, dang :(

Game looks great but the camera is taking a big toll on enjoability. in any case I do like how it interpretes the theme

(+1)

A bit slow and pretty buggy, I got frustrated but still a really fun and interesting gameplay! I also quite like the style :)

Submitted(+1)

Everythings great! except for maybe the camera which is a bit weird

Submitted(+2)

Pretty fun and I liked how you used the theme! The camera got a bit buggy, but I enjoyed it otherwise.

Submitted(+1)

Nice visuals and a creative idea. I liked it!

Excellent job mate, keep it up

Cute spin on the theme! I think the camera movement and raft is a little bit sluggish but aside from that I enjoyed it! Good work!

Developer

Unfortunately think that is mainly because of the WebGL version not being tested much during development, we didn't optimise enough!
