I had a fascination for ants and aphids when I was a kid, so I had to play this. The aphids in their little ties are the cutest thing I have ever seen in my life and if this game let me die to protect them I would.
The spritework is super cute! the splash art is amazing too!
Scored 270!
Super lovely artwork and nice ambiance with the sound effects :)
The gameplay is simple but works quite well. Just wish the ant was a tad faster or maybe had a dash of sorts.
Congrats on the game!
Love the sound effects!
thank you! :D
