Campain level sorting

[Diavid]

So the next ant species that will come are leafcutter ants. And the next biome is jungle. (is it?)

Is this also the final sorting of levels?
Because for the campain i think a other sorting would be better.

Normal -to-> exotic
easy -to-> complex

Leafcutter ants are the most exotic, complex, and one of the most popular species.
This is something the player is looking forward to with anticipation.

I would sort levels like this:

At the beginning:
Habitats: meadow, beach
Ants: Lasius niger, Formica fusca

Middle:
Habitats: deciduous forest, coniferous forest, mediterranean/bushland
Ants: Temnothorax unifasciatus (whole colony can life in a acorn), Formica rufa, Camponotus or Messor species

End:
Habitats: desert, savanna, rainforest
Ants: Bull ants, Honeypot ants, weaver ants, Leafcutter ants

I dunno that they'd have a specific ordering, just that they're releasing one at a time.

I don't feel there's much need to have some sense of increasing ant society complexity along with the game progression - as much as anything, our virtual ant societies are always going to be hugely simplified.

Basically the guys are working on what they want to work on (which is a decent guiding principle for any passion project) and leaf cutters excite them.
