Can just make a super ant
Should definitely have wasd be the default or allow both at once - the standard procedure should not be to change controls before playing

Oh yeah i forgot to fix that when publish, i was using arrow keys during testing and forget to change it back to WASD, i will make an patch for it later.

Very interesting concept for a rogue-lite! Keep up the good work! :) ♥

Game is all good, but I wish that my ants would attack while I am in one of those upgrade stores.

That was fun :D The pathfinding for the ally ants is good, and I love the little wiggle they sometimes do while running. The enemies are interesting to fight too! The background art is nice, though the grass is a bit too bright for me. I'm also glad you added keybinding, it definitely made the game a lot more enjoyable c:
