AntToTopia by Max0n4ik

[raw]
made by Max0n4ik for Ludum Dare 56 (JAM)

You control an ant who is quietly exploring the world of the street, when he unexpectedly falls into a pipe leading to the lair of his enemy - an evil ladybug. To get out and continue your journey, you will have to go through many challenges in this underground pipe system. The ladybug is blocking the way, and you'll need to use your agility and ingenuity to fight him.

After an intense battle, you'll be rewarded with a peaceful swamp where the peace and tranquility contrasts with the previous challenges.photo<em>2024-10-08</em>01-20-45.jpgphoto<em>2024-10-08</em>01-21-23.jpgphoto<em>2024-10-08</em>01-23-03.jpgphoto<em>2024-10-08</em>01-23-28.jpgphoto<em>2024-10-08</em>01-24-05.jpgphoto<em>2024-10-08</em>01-26-41.jpg

graphics are nice and polished but i couldn't really get to the gameplay part, the mouse is free so when i hit the borders of the screens i can't turn in this direction anymore :(
And for some reason, E R T actions make the game crash on itch for me ..
All I wanted was to stack some ants and fights some bugs x)

Wow, that ant looks badass! Love the smooth animations! I really liked exploring the environment, though the game would regularly freeze on me. Still very fun! :ant:

Funky music, but I couldn't figure out what to do in the game. I also accidentally fell off the map a few times :P

collected some stuff, beat the shit out of some bug. Sadly, wasn't able to find out what actions supposed to do - game crashes on "R" for me. Nice models. Soundtrack is funny :)

Unfortunately the game is crashing when I use the 'E' and 'R' hotkeys, but 'T' isn't causing the crash. Tested on both Firefox and Chrome and it crashes the same in both.

Hopefully you might be able to get a bug-fixed build uploaded!

The embedded version on the ludum page does not work, use the itch.io link.

Using 'E' and 'R' crashes the game.

I managed to kill the ladybug and reach the swamp. I was not sure how to fight, but mashing clics and t got me through.

Congrats on your entry !

Didn't expect such a 3D game in a game jam web build. What a timeline we live in! :laughing:

And yeah, just like for other folks, mouse not being locked prevents from fully explore the game. And judging by screenshots, there's a lot to explore!

Here's a little snippet of code I use to lock the cursor in Unity:
```csharp
private void Update()
{
if (Cursor.lockState != CursorLockMode.Locked && Input.GetButton("Fire1") && !EventSystem.current.IsPointerOverGameObject())
{
Cursor.lockState = CursorLockMode.Locked;
}

if (Cursor.lockState == CursorLockMode.Locked && Input.GetButton("Cancel"))
{
Cursor.lockState = CursorLockMode.None;
}

if (Cursor.lockState == CursorLockMode.Locked)
{
var mouseInputX = Input.GetAxis("Mouse X");
var mouseInputY = Input.GetAxis("Mouse Y");
// get other input
}
```

Thanks for participating! And wish you to make more games and see you in the next Ludum Dare :v: Good luck!

The "walking" aspect of the game is well.
Animation of the ant is realy cool. I'm pretty sure that she can hear the music and moves on it ^^
Control are a bit difficult due to camera, but I suspect the fact that I use a mouse and not a controller.

The "battle" aspect confused me. There is no rigid hitbox, and game sometimes crash when I try to hit something.

It was unexpectedly cool! 💥 The game surprised me with its stylish 3D models and animations of insects, especially the ant looks just amazing! 🐜 The graphics are very polished and pleasing to the eye. I enjoyed exploring the environment, and the music adds even more fun to the atmosphere! 🎶 Despite these small problems, I really had fun smashing bugs and collecting all sorts of things. Great work team, looking forward to fixes and continuation! 👏

Did not understand what the sugar and little ants are for. The combat feels a little slugish and its hard to tell whether you hit enemies or get hit or not. Its a fun concept, reminds me a little of grounded ^^

Very cool entry, was fun to fight the ladybug and explore the levels. Some confusion at first, but got there in the end. 3D is really impressive to do in the time, and love that you got a pause and audio settings in there, as settings are usually missing from LD games.
