First js game I've seen in this LD :) \r<br\/>\r<br\/>Gameplay was a bit slow, having it faster would've been nice, and SFX would've really added a lot, but good job!

You can control your workers and their harvesting by creating networks of pheromones; you can create some fairly complex networks.\r\n\r\n[edit]\r\n\r\nI've added a zip archive of the source. It runs on a vanilla  LAMP setup with no plugins. there is only 1 file of PHP, the vast majority of code is in JS, but I thought I should include this as well.<\/p>","title":"Buggiest Game Ever"}
