I do believe that a couple of simpler changes could have made this game a bit easier to play. Don't de-select workers after issuing a command and let the path selection be on as soon as you have a selection instead of making it a two-click command. Nice entry though! Keep it up!
Thanks for your opinion! I'll work on it ☺️
Are also struggled a bit with the controls but I guess the slow movement makes you use multiple ants in parallel. I really liked that there are two different types with varying stats. Good entry!
took a min to understand the controls, but I like the strategic pathing aspect of it. controls could be streamlined a little like @daandruff mentioned, but overall I enjoyed it. nice submission!
The game lacks a proper tutorial and is quite difficult for a jam entry. I hope this feedback helps in future projects.
ld1.png Чтобы пройти игру, использовал стратегию, где муравей-сенсор ходит по уже прорытым путям и мониторит клубнику, а работяга (джун xd) делает всю грязную работу. Не знаю, также у настоящий муравьев или нет, но игра получилась неплохая (учитывая, что это первый LD и компо). На будущее, можно поглядеть A*-алгоритм поиска путей, чтоб муравьи выстраивали пути уже по прорытым ходам автоматически
good simple game about pathfinding. For me was problem with slow movement, because I already see around 10 turns forward, but can make 1 by 1 with delay. But strategy component was good.
It’s a pleasant little game to play — the game jam theme is well represented.
The piano adds to the atmosphere, though it feels a bit monotonous.
At first, I didn’t quite get how to control the units.
I also initially thought there were separate sensor units and separate digging units.
When you collect all the berries, the victory screen is really heartwarming.
cool idea, bit difficult to know what to click or do (so with some polishing, could be nice!)
Really cool idea for a game but could use polish in a lot of areas, mostly the music looping properly and making moving your units feel good
I enjoyed working out how to efficiently move my ants around each other and the map, but UX on selection and movement would be the thing I'd say to focus on if you had more time. It should be crisp and reliable to select and command an ant.
Like the idea, but it'd be better if u can built route not only from up tile.
