You are a lost ant and you have to go back to your underground nest.
But to get there you will have to hide from the Evil COW, PIG and the SPIDER BOSS.
Maybe your friend Bee can help you? Maybe if you save her from the spider?
A little platformer with some stealth action.
Instructions: - Move with WASD or Arrow Keys. - Jump: Space. - Action/Shoot Rocks: E - Shoot Stick: T - Switch Character: Tab (if unlocked)
Use your rocks and sticks wisely
TIPS: 1) Rocks don't hit meat 2) Rocks hurt wood. 3) Wood cuts lines. 4) Lines cut can save friends. 5) Friends can reach higher places. 6) Higher places can open lower altitude places 7) If it runs, you can also run away 8) If meat sees you, you can go back and it will stop 9) And you want to fall after using your friend's help 10) HEY LISTEN, THE GROUND!
Really weird game, but in a good way :D I like the graphics, and the gameplay is smooth. The only problem was the keys were a bit unnatural.. Good job!

Well, I didn't get it ? I got two rocks, went after the cow on the right, passed the spider on the left and stucked on the pig (could not jump over nor walk under like I did with the cow),
Innovation: 3/5 - Nothing spectacularly new, but nothing too derivative either. Fun: 2/5 - Loses a lot of fun because the mechanics are not intuitive, and experimentation is discouraged (you can't win if you waste even a single rock, for example) Theme: 4/5 - Eh, fits the theme, but it's not clever about it. Graphics: 2/5 - Not pretty, but mostly I can tell what they are. Except that pink thing - I'm guessing it was a pig? Audio: N/A - Not on a machine with audio, so not rating. Humor: N/A - Didn't see any attempts at humor, so not rating. Mood: 3/5 - Cheerful, but nondescript.
Well that was just plain fun! The best quality of the game, if you will, is that it enticed me to keep playing until I won. Great job with the variety between the puzzles. Oh, and that ant walking sound...so annoying yet so perfect :D Overall, the game brought me back to the days of Kings Quest for some reason. Anyway, great job; thanks for making this!
WOW thanks everyone for the feedback! As I said earlier (or didn't I?): I work daily with games, so I take Game Jams as an opportunity to do the opposite of my work. That means, I can't make anything serious, I have to make something weird/different/sarcastic/etc as opposite to "make a game with this or that rules to make players happy or to agree with a mechanic".
@strega@ilo @MadGnomeGamer I made all sounds using only my voice (except Jump/Powerup which is CFXR).
@AdventureIslands please see " If it runs, you can also run away " -> so run away from the pig and you will see the result :)
Tried to hit web with stick: No result. Tried to hit web with rock: No result. Tried to hit cow with stick: No result. Tried to hit cow with rock: No result.
I don't know what I'm supposed to do. But it was fun running around and having that thing happen to the pig!
Great sound effects - really fun to listen, not too distracting. graphics do their job, and even the promised "stealth" element is there. Don't try to play without reading the tips!
Very clean jumping and controls, very nice camera and terrain control, and I liked the scuttling noises and other effects. I got stuck early; I lured the pig to the spider, but I couldn't figure out anything else to do, despite running back and forth a lot, so my ability to explore it was limited.
Very funny, irreverent, absolutely no idea what to do but I love the sound and presentation! Feels like it needs a bit more to flesh it out to a full game i.e a main menu, maybe some hints what to do, but I enjoyed scuttling around a while

@madflame991 oh I tried to make a smooth camera, but it is impossible to polish it completely in 10 hours (I worked only around 9-10h in the game).
@cmo7 thanks!

@otaviogood and @Lidfrid: please see the game description above.
But...
Though, i think i wouldnt be able to tell what to do in the game at first... if i did not read the guide you posted.
But overall i like it :)
(PS Who else found satisfaction in buzzing into the cows butt as a bee to hear him bellow?)
I also liked the ant scuttling sound.
