Sorry for causing all the speculation here. I was just doing some work on the Steam page and noticed we had no underground nest shots so I wanted to make a nice gif and screenshot. I just opened 3-1 and used editor tools to hack out a big nest full of stuff, spawned a load of ants and added some...

You could say it uses Boids but without the Cohesion and Alignment steps (I don't think that still counts as Boids though). Each ant has its own path which it is always trying to stick to, and there's a Separation step where it tries to avoid other ants. That's the main bit which works fine in...

The music is almost entirely done with instruments from East West Composer Cloud. I don't think they are considered the best, but you do get a lot for your money. Sound effects in the game make liberal use of freesound - you can see all the samples in the game credits.

No need to send anything, I know what's going on now, actually both things happen and it needs 2 fixes. I've got something to stop non-bridge creatures being able to target creatures on the bridge but there's still an issue if something that was targeted off-bridge runs onto a bridge. I think...

I saw this a couple times and tried to pretend it didn't happen. I like your theory, you're probably right. Will test this.

When we were looking for creatures for the leafcutter update, we knew we wanted a whip spider, and we were trying to make sure everything could be found roughly in the same area (focusing on Ecuador). This leads to searching photos of sightings of creatures. I think we first saw the whip spider...

It sure is Liam

It's a test

It mixes up the beetle genetics in the egg rewards from levels. You get a less balanced, less predictable play-through. It was quite refreshing for me as I've started like 50 BU games with the same genetics by this point :D

There's a new game mode that we'll be launching soon along with the transition from Early Access to Full Release for Beetle Uprising. If you'd like to try it out and let us know what you think (and let us know about any problems), you can find it on the "Beta" branch now (no password...

You're right, compared to setting up a mission from scratch it wouldn't be too difficult to sort this out. I'll make a note and try to promote it to "extra level" when I get the chance

Only because you love it...

John is right, whats happening here is that somehow the ants have found themselves intersecting with part of the static world (which they are not supposed to do - that's the bug). They can't get a normal vector easily to push them out (normal vectors are easily found when sweeping an ant during...

Thanks! Here it is:
