Known bugs and issues:
Buildings can be built on top of each other.
Continuing from a save file immediately asks if you want to quit the game.
Animation on destroying the spider isn't always on the spider.
The sand overflows at the top and doesn't fill out the bottom of the game.
Pressing the cancel button to advance dialogue also changes modes.

TODO items left untodone:
Have actual ants walking around Ant Town as the population increases.
Have the bank earn interest on the player's money balance as each day goes by.
Don't let buildings be built in thin air without support under them.
Don't let rocks float in mid-air either.
Have a system so that buildings have to be built a certain distance apart in the left-right directions.
Add a parallax background.
Animate Anster's sprite.
Do more with the Population, like have it increase over time and decrease if a spider is encountered.

As always, great jamming with you Ludum Dare!
