Giant Insects are taking over the world. You have been conscripted into travelling into their burrow to exterminate them and given the deadliest weapon known to insects, a newspaper.

Made using WebGL/ThreeJS and should run in most modern browsers.

If the page doesn't load, refresh and it should work.

Thanks for playing.

Really clever use of the theme. Something about the darkness of the caves is really atmospheric and a bit scary to me haha! Well done!

Really compelling game.
Reminds me of Legend of Grimrock, which I absolutely love.
The mood in the cavern was spot on.
The game could use some more mechanics to increase variety in gameplay. Great framework to improve upon :)

Nice use of the theme! IMO the mood and the audio is the best part of the game! Wish that the attack would have a separate attack though, because right now the attacks feels to random.

As I said, the mood is great. The game's assets and models with the lighting and audio goes together nicely to make you feel like you're in a cave.

Good job!

Nicely done! Scary stuff and great tech - you are close to having an engine capable of games like Legend of Grimrock :D

Took me a second to figure out the controls - I love the atmosphere!

What is this, Doom for ants?! Can't see a thing! lol
Fun and challenging, really atmospheric. I was legitimately scared for a long time at the beginning. But after getting down to just 2 ants left, I wandered for a very long time. I wish there was a way to attack without running into the ants. I lost health while I attacked and so I died before killing them all.

Really fun game. I liked the insect models a lot and the walking controls made it somewhat puzzle like. Walking into the insects to attack them is an odd mechanic. It works for simplicity, but seems counter intuitive.

Cool idea. Like the use of the grid based mobility system. Nice visuals.

The next time I go giant insect hunting I'll remember to bring a flashlight.

I really like the navigation with this, it feels very eye-of-the-beholdery. Good use of the theme!

I quite like the low-poly bugs, it's a nice style, and good job on the sounds too!
