Woah this game, is truly a work of art, one could call it a masterpiece, to start with the games thumbnail is truly a work of art, it shows so much about the game without using any words, The plot of this game is incredible and shows the gripping pain and humanity of a simple ant eating a block of food, the graphics are some of the best in the industry, cuphead looks ugly by comparison. The way you put such raw unbridled pain in this game is truly commendable, and the gameplay is top notch, truly up there with some of the greatest game of all time  Truly the greatest game of all time, If I was actualy partaking in this gamejam it would get all 5 stars, but as is you get 5 bags of popcorn and 3 cups of soda

Excellently terrible, I played to about 5 food before realizing I have other responsibilities beyond providing for this ant's life, but can I simply leave him? If I leave the tab, he dies, I must keep feeding him, but it isn't alive. It is just a computer, an AI, but if I leave him... I can't do that. Who says he doesn't have the right to live? It is like me, or you, or Giuseppe the skateboarding tomato, it moves like a living being. It can move just like us, plus or minus the lack of any limbs, but who says you need limbs to be considered living? That little pixel has moved my life, as it has brought my rating count to 100, and I can now sleep.

Peak minimalism. Love it. The lil ant is just a square but it's very cute. :)

Wow! Haven't seen a simpler game :D The ant is pretty stupid but I found out I can just forcefeed it by placing the food directly onto it :D

Developer

It's actually a deliberate practice. At some point you get so frustrated that you just throw the food at the cattle

it was most frustrating ant game until i realized i can just place le food on the ant. 10/10

Submitted

Nice and simple idea, but I wish there was something else to the game, like maybe if you get to food counter of 10, you can place two blocks at a time. Or something like that

Developer

First I wanted to let the ant split into more ants if eaten enough, so they can bump together for a greater mess. But it is to hot these days.

Submitted

That would actually be a pretty good idea!

or is hard but can't stop playing it !

You were correct, I am frustrated LOL, Great submission :)

The Ai of the ant is very well done, great job!

Submitted

It's best than most of the idle game for phone! I'm sure there is a big easter egg when you reach 1000 food eaten :D

This is the game equivalent of waiting for the dvd logo to hit the corner of the screen. Strangely addictive, you are a mad man

Submitted

Well... the title did warn me, but yeah, I did not know ant games could get this frustrating. 10/10 game though.

Submitted

If that doesn't get a win in the simplicity section I don't know what will. Great little ant-simulator! :D
