“Craft your nest underground, finding powerful combinations of chambers and pheromones to build the perfect ant-spawning engine. Then unleash them in their thousands onto the surface, directing workers to fuel the swarm while soldiers and champions push out to conquer enemy territories.”
Ants Times Infinity is the latest project developed by Slug Disco, developers of Empires of the Undergrowth.
We’re continuing to work on Empires of the Undergrowth and you can check out the roadmap Mike recently published to see the cool stuff that we’ve got planned, and of course the next update is currently in beta and will be releasing wider soon (thanks for your help giving feedback on that!)
But what IS Ants Times Infinity?
Create the perfect ant-spawning machine
Place and combine brood chambers that produce ants with wildly different traits, then enhance them with pheromones from your queen to refine and optimise your composition. Everything that happens overground is driven by your nest.
Send forth the swarm
With your subterranean base calibrated, turn your attention to the surface and erupt from your anthill. Send soldiers to hold back incoming enemy trails, keeping workers safe as they gather precious food and return it to the nest.
Manage the battle
An ant is expendable, but a thousand ants are not. Distribute the flow of the swarm in all directions to meet the needs of the colony: too many soldiers to the north leaves the south exposed; too many workers to the east leaves you unable to seize new opportunities in the west.
Unleash your champions
Not all ants are created equal. By design, or by chance, your nest will produce rare genetic outliers. These champions among ants can be held at the nest entrance and deployed at the decisive moment to turn the tide of battle.
Scale to overwhelming numbers
Grow your colony from a trickle into a flood. Command battles that swell to thousands of ants, where directing and maintaining the flow matters more than any single unit.
