Anteater by Fernando Tonon de Rossi

You control the anteater tong, click to the target and it will eat the ants in between.
The ants prefer paths with more pheromone;
Gameplay:

PS: I wanted to create a game where the player control the ants behavior trying to avoid the anteater, but the time is very limiting, so i end up with this :sweat_smile:
I'd appreciate any ideas on how to explore this theme better, I think this idea of playing with an ant colony has some potential.
I'll try to improve it in the future, fixing the pathfind (it wasn't working so I workarounded it) and improving the gameplaying.
Also the sound doesn't work on Qt Webengine, so i didn't even tried to make it, maybe i'll do it later.

I can click to eat ants (although sometimes the click seems to do nothing), but there is no chalange, incentive or payoff for this game. When you make your next game, these 3 things might be a good guide when figuring out the concept of your game.
