This is the coolest main character I've ever seen.

This game was AWESOME. Mechanics-wise there are definitely some difficulties - I struggled to find crafting recipes, and clients who wanted to buy what I had. The art and sound are both incredible. I had a lot of fun :)

flooded my room with honey and became the richest ant alive. 10/10 would play again. Took me a little while to understand the crafting system and what i was supposed to do but other than that its great! love the whole vibe of the game ^^

The world looks nice, and the main hero is definitely a singular guy :grinning: Props for a unique interpretation of the theme!

When you have a lot of different things in your inventory, the UI overflows, the stuff covers up the Back button, and you're stuck in crafting mode forever. And that is how my illustrious sugar drug carrier ended :laughing:

I also found a bit of German (leftover from translation, I presume): Screenshot_2.jpg

Having a lot of fun with this. There's a lot of charm to the goofiness. The train station is particularly cute to me. It would be nice if it were easier to tell which ants were interactable. Unless I'm missing a mechanic, the progression at the start is a little too slow -- possibly because of how far away locations are from each other. I'm not sure whether the "Better Production Quality, Permission for tunnel B52, Bigger bags" guy is just not implemented, or if my game is glitching. It's just a small thing, but I really like being able to run, jump, and do a 360 while still moving forward -- it feels in-character.

Cool game, had lots of fun, nice job

This game is hilarious! The main character has so much personality, and the art and sound are fantastic. It took me a little while to figure out the crafting system, but once I did, it was a blast. Really enjoyed the vibe and humor. Gj!

Cool idea, but it's too repetitive and unfinished. The music and train announcements are gold though

It was my dream to play as bully ant, ahhahahha great job

@fabula-rasa Thanks for playing and pointing that issue out! We updated that issue with V0.3.2 today. :)

The main character is amazingโ€”so much personality! The art, sound, and humor really make this game stand out. It took me a little while to figure out the crafting, but once I got the hang of it, I had a blast. Awesome job!

Ommgg we got Ant GTA before GTA 6 !

thomas-bringer 2024-10-16 19:17

Really funny, couldn't stop laughing at the character and the animations! you got me in the humor category

Great concept and the conceptualisation of the ant colony works great. The actual game mechanics could have used some playtesting, and the footstep sounds are very loud-which could have been fine if the volume sliders were accesible in-game.
