Took me a while to figure out how to play it, the gameplay isn't very intuitive i'm afraid :(

Cute, Sim Ant type game. It wasn't very easy to figure out exactly how to "win"...

Kinda hard to figure out how to play.
Sounds were loud to me and really unexpected(startled me a few times), maybe some background music wouldve helped there

Yeah, I also am having trouble understanding just what it is I'm supposed to be doing. Seems like an interesting simulation, but needs a bit more guidance for the player.

Took a while to figure out what to do, and even after reading the help text, felt pretty boring. Just watching the ants and hoping they would go the way you want them to go. Cool concept, but needs really more work to be fun enough. Keep at it. :)

Interesting - I guess this is a sandbox type game. I couldn't quite understand how to play it, perhaps you could have in game instructions and objectives to make it clearer.

Hard to figure out what to do, I'm afraid. :(

The ants don't move around very much, often going back and forth between the same two points for ages, so it can take a very long time with you just sitting and watching. I kind of like the idea but the game as entered isn't much fun. There needs to be more for the player to do so they can feel a bit more involved.

Thanks for the feedback guys. It was my first LD and I really expected that I would do more than I did.
Sorry for the sound @gabeochoa =/

someguy22 2012-08-27 16:44

Haha I think I failed with only one blue ant left. Could've used more sounds.

commanderstitch 2012-08-27 17:22

I didn't know what to make of this. I just let them run around for awhile and I WON. i must rock at this! :)

Kind of confused as to how I was meant to win, the sounds were very sharp, sudden and loud so startled me a few times, music during game play and maybe not as sharp would have helped, I like the idea, and with a bit more time, I could imagine this being a good game that I could spend many hours on

Hard to understand what to do, not really fun then. But a nice simulation!

zatyka 2012-08-27 22:36

Cool idea, but hard to get the hang of.

rwos 2012-08-27 22:48

Reminds me of SimAnts - including the "what the hell do I have to do" factor. :-)

Some help texts would have been cool. The ants seem to move the hearts around, sometimes - but I can't figure out under what conditions.

Couldn't figure out how to play.

qaterknan 2012-08-30 07:38

Interesing idea, but unfortunately, it isnt designed well. I didnt even find out which is which.

monomanio 2012-09-03 21:43

Didnt quite understand it at first..

mohammad 2012-09-06 00:17

The game was hard but...Fun?
Well it was difficult, that's for sure.

tomhunt 2012-09-12 03:57

it's kinda neat watching the ants run around doing their thing. not really sure what i'm supposed to do, though.

atraxgames 2012-09-15 10:03

Seems interesting but it needs a tutorial
