Controls are a bit finnicky but I see the vision, really cool

This was fantastic! I really appreciated how interconnected each region was with each other, and getting power ups to unlock different regions (like the sticky wheels). The hint for the cave at the beginning of the game was very helpful as well. I would say the controls for me were pretty sensitive, and that having a whole paragraph for the controls were pretty overwhelming. Maybe you can format them differently? Otherwise great game and great idea!

Cool game! The controls could use some work but it was very enjoyable :)

Such an oddly ethereal ride, I explored until the end, and huge thanks to the secret tooltip about the cave! Definitely hit the nail on the head for scale, slowly growing the ant's vehicle power. I've also gotta say, I'm not sure if this was intentional, but the vibes this game gives off are a little bit spooky, at least thats how it felt with the music combined. I played the game using only mouse and keyboard, so controlling the vehicle felt really odd, especially the turning, if anything I'd request the use of Q and E to turn left and right at set speeds rather than using the mouse. All in all, really cool ideas, and I love the aspect of returning to previous maps to uncover more!
