Quite neat to watch! I included it in a compilation video series of all of the ProcJam creations, if you'd like to take a look! :)

Right now, it is random movement until the ant gets in range of the food, but it is always an adjustment of the ants current velocity rather than completely random.

Yeah, there is definitely more work to do on the ants following the trails.

Kind of a neat little experiment. Is there some kind of guidance the ant is trying to use or does it move randomly until it gets within a certain range of the food? Also, the ant seemed to get stuck often on the straight direct route from the anthill to the food, making him lose it and have to search again.
