Ant Attack

The ant’s tiny world is under attack by rock and stone throwing fiends.Protect the ant queen by blocking of the attackers. You can build mud and sand walls, but watch out, those won’t last forever.

Well, that’s the concept. I had 100s of other ideas, but this is the only thing that was remotely original and that feels like I can finish it in time.

I have used my warmup code for my technical feasibility study. Technically speaking, I’ve got most of what I want in there (drawing walls, damage, bouncing attackers :) ). Visually it reuses some of old sprites I had lying around. Those will be replaced later on.

Next step is to make an actual game out of this. Adding some kind of enemy (I’m not sure about that yet), the ant queen and scoring / level progress.

If I manage to get an interesting game running today, tomorrow is going to be dedicated to level creation, images and sound. I got about 3 hours left, so it will be a close call.
