Amazing art! Love the lil ants :ant:

Nice little game! I think the ant colony buttons were a bit finicky to use, and I'm not sure if there was a way to get more ants or something like that, but still a nice demo!

Neat concept but it feels like it wasn't completed? The get food button works sometimes, but after the single ant gets 10 food, nothing else happens. No more ants are spawned and the help plant button didn't appear to do anything for me.

I really like the graphics here! Each of the sprites looks pretty good and at first I didn't notice how many were repeated! I think the world feels nice and cozy, which I think is what you were going for.

The gameplay itself doesn't quite seem to work--I can get lots of food from the tree, but I have a hard time getting the ants out to eat it. It seems like the "Search Food" button usually doesn't do anything when I press it. I also noticed an issue where the WASD keys would sometimes not work.

I enjoyed the music! Reminds of Terraria, although perhaps that partially due to the similar game title. :smile:

very cute assets and music!

Nice pixel art and relaxing music. The vibe is very cozy. As others have mentioned, fixing the ant colony button would have gone a long way I think. Some other cool ideas: shadows for trees, animations for ants, and layering (you could just render stuff based on Y position).

Interesting idea, I liked these types of games when I was a kid like the Creatures series. Unfortunately I don't think the game was in a playable state. All I could do was spam the search food button for one ant to SOMETIMES go out and look for food. I could also click the big tree in the middle to speed up the timer. Apart from those 2 things, there was no other way for me to interact with the game.

I am biased due to my love for ants, so I liked this one. I would have really loved to see a lot of ants run over the screen and gather food though! Nevertheless, a good starting point for continued work! :D

treeeeeee and one ant. muuuuuusic! lots of apples. Lots of pretty drawings of amazing places to give the feel. Nice isometric board. Other than those things I didn't see anything else. :D

I don’t quite understand - either the game is not finished, or there is some kind of bug: only 1 ant is available, and after collecting 10 food nothing happens. The "help plant" button does nothing. More challenging gameplay would be very welcome. Overall a good picture and pleasant sound. Well done!
