Nice submissions! I'm not sure I figured out what was going on, but it was fun to watch things happening after everything started moving. Reminded me of ants or something.

Congrats on the first submission!

Pretty cool idea going for a sandbox as your first foray into Godot.  I'm always a fan of watching lil fellas go about doing their own thing and how i can manipulate them :P  Just wish i could zoom in on the lil guys.

Nice sandbox, not sure what everything does, but was fun trying to figure that out. Nice to see people from the scratch community coming to godot, for having used both, you can do so much more in Godot, Your entry is a great first entry :)

I'm not quite sure what the end goal was, but yeeting the larva around made me genuinely laugh out loud :D

Mostly quite intuitive, but could use some instruction - like, it took me a moment to realize you can adjust the speed of the game. But - you could also frame figuring out how things work as part of the experience.

Fun to place things and watch them run around, neat lil game!

I love watching little animals fly around! I wasn’t able to trigger any morphs though :( . The maggots seemed to disappear, but the bees stuck around. The speed scale was a nice add. I almost would default to really fast. I agree on the note it would have been nice if you could make the screen larger. Maybe zoom in directly at a portion of your horde.

Super neat little simulator! Was fun to watch the critters run around, I wish there was a bit more of an objective though

This is super cute.  Initially I liked just placing random stuff on the map and bulldozing it with my mouse. But it's pretty chill to turn the time speed up and watch the creatures run around.

My main criticism would just be to export the game at a higher resolution so it's easier to see the sprites and buttons. But everything being tiny does fit the ant colony vibe.
