Hi, there seems to be a DoNotShip folder in your game file, is this intentional? Anyways, onto the game itself!
Love the game! It's reminiscent of those rage games that you see in the mobile game ads where the guy in the ad plays poorly (I am that guy). Definitely one of those games where the early game is a bit hectic but once you get the gist of it you're in.
Very hardcore. You still need to get used to the controls, but I liked it.
Neat arena game! I found it quite hard to grow since everytime i got a bit big i got killed by some stray bullet :D But I guess that's what happens when you give guns to ants! Might have been cool to start already with a gun or knife!
Keep up the good work! <3
Very nice mechanic!!! Ants-samurai is the best
Very hectic game. I kept dying over and over again. The controls felt wonky. Once I got a gun I had no idea whether I was shooting or not, because there was no clear player feedback that indicated it. OR there could have been but I mixed the bullet lines to someone else's.
Nice entry regardless! Wish it had some audio.
The game is fun but very challenging.
It's fun, it remembers the .io games, when you are a small ant trying to do stuff and there is a GIANT ant as big as the screen with weapons aiming at you. Gun fight are a little too punitive as you can be shot by ants outside the screen. It's a fun game, congratulations !
Punishing game, definitely need to git gud before trying again! Felt the 1st level was very randomy to get anypoints/weapons, maybe he player could start with a random weapon every time?
This game is amazing. Its fun, fast paced, good variation, actually difficult. It would be cool to spawn with some immunity, I got killed off spawn a bunch.
Everybody's gangsta (and by everybody, I mean all the other ants in the game) until Giant Ant with a Tank On Its Back rolls up.

I loved playing, especially once I found a dead lvl 300 ant that I ate to grow huge. Once you're that big, though, it's kind of hard to lose on purpose, since I was killing everything and eating at such a rate that I was gaining more health than I would lose. It also made navigating a pain, since I could really only go forward, but that's life as Big Ant on Campus. 😂
its very nice game, controls a little bit difficult, but this fun game
Very fun once you get used to the controls! Classic arena shooter vibes.
Whaaat?! Ants with guns and knives are having a battle to the death? Give me more!
Very fun concept, a bit heavy on the controls and not always clear what you're losing to, but overall a solid project
I played for a long time, but I never managed to become a big ant. :cry: but it's good that the game is so challenging.
challenging game , have fun and taste , gj
nice
great game! i got hook for a while hahah controls are a bit rough, but still cool!
What's this, a battle royale for ants? :wink: I would prefer standard directional movement, but I had fun nonetheless! (as long as you can find a weapon quickly...) Love that you can get right back into the game immediately after you die. Great entry overall! :smile:
Man, I've been dealing with ants in my home lately and I now super glad none of them have weapons. I had a lot of fun with this one, and while I see that a lot of people are mentioning the controls as a sticking point, I wonder if the fiddleyness of them might actually be what makes this game so charming. It's kind of difficult to do what you want, and even with practice you are still kind of clumsy, and I think it makes the combat a little more fun and a lot more surprising.
Welcome back to the game jam, hope you make another game next time!
Great game! The controls are a bit hard, but that’s what made it more random! Great job! I could see this on a web games website, with thousands of people playing it! Well done!
Love the idea! Takes me back to the older .io games, and doing it inside of an ant-colony was a nice touch. You did this great! Would like to see multiplayer in it for sure.
Very well made. Difficulty is very steep. As devs, it is good for us to remember that our games are always much easier for us to play than the user that is opening it for the first time.
Reminds me of Liero. Did anyone else play that game?
Nice game! I initially found the movement to be a bit tricky but I got used to it pretty quick, the guns were fun to use when I was finally able to get my hands on one. The combat is really hard but like the movement, very rewarding once you get good.
I think the AI might be a bit too accurate with their shots, unfortunately I kept getting shot from off screen :(
This was a really nice game though, I'm glad I got a chance to play it!
This would be a blast to roll into a networked lobby with randos for a bit. Well done.
This definitely reminded me of playing games like agar.io, very fun! It's rare to see a game jam game that feels like it's multiplayer, even if it's still just ai characters playing with you. It seems like once you get behind, it's very difficult to catch up again, but if you can get strong early it's very satisfying to run around killing all the other ants.
Very smart take on the theme, and funny gameplay idea :) cool smooth graphics, I wish i could turn a little bit faster and that ants would not have such precise autoaim from so far i can't see them aha :) Well done ! good job !
I liked this a lot! I really liked the tank style movement controls and the fake online feel of playing against the other ants!
Interesting game. I do think it'd have been easier to control if W moved the ant left regardless of its orientation, rather than having W turn the ant left.
