I like the graphics a lot! Controls are smooth and its really cool to look at the ants doing their thing when they work.

Developer

Thanks! Adding the emote system was perhaps the single most important thing in making the ants fun to watch, it really helps to telegraph what they're planning to do :)

This is great. Love the art and the ant AI is super impressive

Developer

Thanks! I'm currently trying to refactor the AI and it's nightmare spaghetti, lol

one of the best games that I've played so far in this jam, very quality. love the art and the idea of the bent sprites.

Developer

Oh thanks! I've been really worried that mine doesn't have the polish of the really good games from the jam (like having music, lol), but it's really nice to hear you liked it!

Feel good. Bit weird how some of the resources seem to hover. Need flying ants :)

Developer(+1)

Haha, I think I know what's causing the hovering, but I need to poke around in the code some :P

Really appreciate the fog of war. It was very cool to see.

I think I set the fog vision radius to be too high so I don't even think some people noticed it, lol
