Cool idea! I took embarrassingly long to realize that Iβm one of the ants and not an outside observer. Might be helpful to color the hero ant differently or something.

- This is a really cool implementation of the theme, I really enjoyed the mechanics however I feel like having 2-3 minutes even if there were more shapes and options would be a lot better due to the fact the map is decently large and takes time to traverse and the thought process to figure out what's right takes some time as well. Fun little project, good job!
How does the game fit into the theme?
As the lone witness to the queen ant's murder, you must use your memory of the killer's pheromone signature to find them before time runs out and they get away.
You get one minute and one button to solve a Mastermind-esque puzzle.
What premade assets did you use if any?
Music from Audionautix.com and sound effects from Kenney or Freesound.org (both public domain)
