Nice idea My best times in 'You are Queen': Total - 1:49 Dig Nest - 1:32 Food Supply - 1:49 Population - 1:24
I love the idea ! Its amazing you did this in such a low time (ldss.png
I got 2:48 so I played again and got: 2:05 then I played a few more times and got: temp.png
I don't think one can do too much better. Sub 1:40 is probably possible, but not sure.
Fun little bite sized game. I enjoyed it!
It's a great idea of ant colony simulator but you should to polish it. It's too easy to win.
1:42
Super fun idea ! I love the priority system you implemented, and the more you progress with more ants, the more satisfying it becomes ! Well done
Interesting idea, kinda dig the idea of hands-off gameplay.

Nice chill game! It was fun to watch the ants do things on their own. Soothing music too.
I got interesting experience, thanks!
I enjoyed playing through this. I really dig the straightforward graphics--combined with the hands-off gameplay, this gives this game a really chill vibe. Then, adding the goal of building the population, etc--kind of gives this game a feeling akin to a building game, all about exponential growth--and I think that combination is really quite fun and relaxing.
I think I would have liked a bit more understanding of the interplay between the various factors. Do I need to dig the nest before the eggs can grow? That's what is seemed like. Do I need food before my eggs can become ants? That is what I guessed, so I set the slider to forage, but I couldn't actually tell for sure.
I think that the food resource in particular could be expanded on just a little bit--essentially, make the ants unable to do the other tasks if the food isn't kept stocked. (Maybe this is how it works--I don't know :sweat_smile: )
On the graphics: I enjoyed the particle effects. I think that the holes being dug would be better if they were, maybe, expanding circles/ovals? The chopped-off ovals seem a bit unpolished.
Anyways, here's my scores (the clipboard button doesn't seem to work): Total - 2:05 Dig Nest - 2:05 Food Supply - 1:57 Population - 1:52
It looks fun, but I don't feel like I am playing the game. Give me a bit more to do and I would be happy.
Pretty relaxing! I was actually a bit disapointed that it ended so quickly. Good work!
Nice and chill!
Very nice little automation/ management style game! Would have been nice if there were some "negative" consequences preventing me from just 100%ing my population and then just blowing through the rest.
