Cool idea. I couldn't figure out how to effectively kill enemies though. It felt like I had to collect a large group then slowly corral stragglers of another type into a corner.

@Pellanor - Thankyou for playing! Yes I wish I could have had more time to implement a mechanic that gave the player more agency

@savethejets1 - Thank you so much!

Really cool idea. Like the swarming algorithm. One death was attributed to losing track of which guy I was in my 30 object swarm, so some highlighting would've probably helped. Nice job.
