Guys.

This is a game. About ants.
In which you basically manage resources to maintain the population.
There will be disasters, migrations, predators, I don’t know what else.

And combats. With acids. Exploding ants. It will be messy.

Check out the steam page now.

Okay I think I have to start paying attention to video games again

I used to have a very similar game years ago, Les Fourmis

My copy was all in French but I knew enough to play and it was great fun.

Not typically what I reblog but I love games like this and have always wanted to see a good ant-based RTS.

I am laughing so hard because EA’s “Um, actually sweetie, us locking Darth Vader and Luke Skywalker behind two $260 paywalls in our $80 game is totally justifiable :)” comment not only broke the record for most downvoted post in Reddit history, it completely obliterated it. It wasn’t just the first to break 500k or even 100k, no post before it had even broken 25k. The most downvoted post prior to this was one from someone literally asking for downvotes, which currently stands at -23.8k. The shitstorm that came down on The Fine Brothers when they tried to lay claim to reaction videos and the word “react” itself only landed them just shy of 6,000 downvotes. As of this post, EA’s comment sits at negative 557 thousand when it’s only a day old, and it’s still getting thousands of downvotes by the hour. It could very well be the first post to get to a million downvotes. Remember, the previous record wasn’t even 25 thousand.

Just… wow.
