Reviews for "We're not ants !"

ok as i was writing my review i let the game play itself and i see the workers are now doing exact what i wanted them to do, without me giving any further instuction.
and now it really fits it's game genre STS.
for that my friend i have to give you 4/5, because i like to see how my colony or what you wanna call it get kinda alive.
you really have to be patient, but once you get it the game is pretty nice.
i think with a bit improvement on the controls this could get big.

thank you for that experience and keep on doing your thing

Thanks! But you have to give this score to nature, as it was the one to think the AI.
The name of the game comes from the fact that I took inspiration in ants for the AI (esp trails), that's how they work, and it's very effective ! It was incredible to see how efficient it was since the first lines of code, nature did a good job to have an efficient "AI" with very little "thinking power". :)

There still has few technical issues, like collisions, and stuff, and angles are a bit hard for them to manage, but I hope to make it better.

I really love the game! its a great idler and I love the whole concept behind it. Can't wait to see you improve on it.

The only issue i had was with the warriors respawning. they were doing fine til i got to the second underground level. I built 2 nests there and never got them to respawn on the first underground floor. I waited for a while and even tried to refresh the game. The nests on the first floor just refuse to respawn any warriors. When I went back to the second floor they respawned in the 2 new ones I built on second floor but, only the once. Haven't been able to get it to snap out of it. Im running it on chrome if that helps. only solution that I found is build more nests but, i'm going to not be able to fight anymore real quick with how costly there getting. thats my only issue i've ran into in game. Keep it up! this not so ant like game is an amazing idler and I hope you continue improving on it.

plopix responds:

Thank you for your report it is real helpful. It seems that you're blocked because your nests are creating cocoons on second map. When you go back to first map, there are no cocoon created because you already have cocoons being created on another map. Those cocoon on second map don't hatch because your are on first map. Can you confirm me that ? Is it solved by simply waiting on second map ?

not a bad game at all

plopix responds:

Thank you !

Great Game! The Issue that I have is that my old save file deleted :( not that I mind too much cuz I beat the game... so thats ok! I kinda want to beat the game again, but you should definitely add an ascend feature or more levels
But as an OG player, i think the mute button on tour game is broken, because even when I i press turn off audio and go back into the game, the sound is some how back on.

plopix responds:

Hi ! I added a kind of ascend upgrade in latest update.

About the audio issue, I have to check, I may have broken something when I redid the loading menu. Thanks !
Edit: audio bug fixed

there are some pathfinding bugs in the dessert hunting ground filled with armadillo bugs. In the area with the plant my workers got stuck on the walls. other than that, the game is fine.
