Cool stuff, from the design to the sounds

Super solid game! The start seems to be the hardest part, but once I learned to let the insects get close to the anthill before grounding them and swarming with soldiers, the rest was more or less smooth sailing - til I get hit by the red ants hahah. Very nice flow and peaceful game, subdued sound effects and aesthetic which works nicely for it. The sight of seeing the ants swarm a new target was a spectacle every time. Awesome job!
Ok wow this game is so well made and feels so polished!
The aesthetics and audio is AMAZING! The overall idea of it not being a simple idle game and actually having the player hit the enemies to assist the ants is very clever!
I'll definitely come back to playing this game game more later.
The only thing that put me off was once all the seeds were over, I couldn't spawn any more worker ants. If there was a slower way to get seeds with just the soldiers, that would've nice too!
This is a really cool concept for a game, I really enjoyed! Nice work! The visuals are great too!
I was a bit confused on some specific mechanics but it was still fun. Also wish the leaderboard had names but overall great game!
Hmm, I had to play it three more times to better understand it but I get it more now. I had a hard time understanding how to manage food because I kept quickly running out and wasn't able to gather more. Now looking back at it, it's because the termites were killing off the colony. It was probably just stupid on my part to be honest as I was treating termites and flies the same and thought ants were dying for other reasons.
