20k wow that's a huge amount. No wonder it lagged :)

Missed replying to this so sorry, a lot of RL stuff has been happening. Glad you like them. They are fun to watch aren't they :)

Cool. Glad you like them. 

Unlikely. Although I did toy with the idea of adding your own background. I can't code atm the moment though RL stuff is in the way,

Thanks for your comment.  I am glad you like the game.

This game is great. The difficulty scales gradually and the game adds new changes to the mechanics as you progress. I like this a lot!

https://clockwork-hippo.itch.io/nest-lander Happy to add Nest Lander to such a worthy cause. Sorry I missed the start.

I've added a click/tap to spawn 100 ants button on the search button with the magnifying glass. I've had 7k ants on my laptop and had 1k on my Moto Z phone. About half those amounts is a realistic cap though :)

Thanks! I was considering having the spawn button as a press and hold to spawn rapidly button.

Thanks. I have found it fun 2 player. I think you will like it. I am hoping to add AI drones into the game for a single player experience but I'm concentrating on 2 player at the moment.

Thanks :)

Thanks Rudigames. There's lots more to add but the game is still fun :)

Droid Arena has now reached a point when it's fun and playable even in it's current bare bones state. Grab a friend and have a blast. An easy to play top down local multiplayer game. Shoot the other droid, avoid the energy walls. Read the Droid Arena page for futher details and tactics.

With practice you can drift Eggward into tight spaces by flying sideways then rotating him so he is upright. This can be a great help when landing on some of the difficult to reach nests.

Did you know skill levels also affect the speed of the game? Eggward is faster and much more responsive and can be easier for some people to control at higher speeds. So, if you are having trouble controlling him at skill level 1 or 2, try 3 or even 4. Once you have mastered a skill level, try the next level up as the game gets more fun the faster you can fly.

Thanks Jenisha. Glad you like it :)

Help Eggward to fly from nest to nest. Collect eggs for bonus points. Complete levels before the timer runs out for extra bonus points. Don't let the cutesy style fool you. This is a game requiring real arcade skills, especially at the higher skill levels. Five skill levels cater for casual gamers to arcade gods and everyone in between. Developed by an Ex Commodore 64 game designer and pixel artist, Nest Lander is the first game from Clockwork Hippo Games. Bringing back the challenge!
