What if a 2D ant simulation wasn't just something satisfying to view, but also something playable. With that idea I present to you Pheromone Protocol.

You control the digger ants, tell them what to mine out and the worker ants will overtime find that new tunnel. Use discovery tools like the free research tool and the scan tool to find food and collect it all in 15 minutes.

fun little game, I enjoyed. even if in a possible future there's more complexity and resulting strategy, the simplicity of this is part of its charm. thank you

Thanks for the review, really appreciate it, was worried that it'd be too simple, but glad that aspect had it's own charm.
