Idleant - an idle game about ant

A charming, bite-sized, idle game that is ant-themed, perfect to run on the side and to be honest, I loved staring at it and seeing the little buggers run to the food and back to their nest. So, I guess in a way it actually made me ‘active idle’ instead of just checking back in now and then, which is what I tend to do with most, for a few hours. I think it’s terrific that it’s entirely hand-drawn! This is one of the reasons I find it ever so charming. While it has prestige and some upgrades, it’s not super complex, which made the whole idle experience fun and chill. It’s all just lovely and straightforward. My only regret is that I didn’t grab the radio faster since all those songs, and their titles, are delightful. If you have a bit of spare time, like a short idle game, consider giving this one a go for sure. Meanwhile, I genuinely hope the developer makes another one with a hand-drawn style again, as it really stole my old little grumpy heart. Tiny ants, but big relaxation, and I appreciate that! Started with nothing, VS now we're here! <3 https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3587504119 https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3587504322 [hr…

[H1]Idleant - an idle game about ant[/h1][hr][/hr] 5-10+ hours to complete, Idleant is a super charming hand-drawn idle game about running an ant colony across two terrariums – one serving as the colony’s main home and the other as its Hunting Grounds. You start the game by purchasing ant eggs, waiting, and then watching them hatch before venturing out to forage. Eventually, you earn enough food or resources to acquire a Queen, who produces eggs for free and becomes the heart of the colony. Progress comes from the size of the ant population and purchased upgrades. The main Terrarium can be expanded four times, each with its own redesign increasing in size and complexity, while the hunting ground can be upgraded five times. As you grow, you earn Prestige points that can be spent to unlock permanent passives and bonuses, such as improved food quality, a higher ant population cap, opening the background window, bees (Bees?!?!), and getting a radio. I especially enjoyed “Ant Lofi Study Beats” and the hilariously titled “RIP the Queen by Princess n394,” a classic. https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3579933533 Overall, I had a great time idling with Idleant.

Fun Short Idle game. Art is a vibe. The radio is locked behind 1 prestige point which is sad but unlock it the music is a vibe princess 398n knows how to make a song!. There is a button to make the art more clear which i suggest but its up to you. Overall great game and worth 3$.

You can get softlocked out of the later prestige updates quite easily.

Got this as a gift and without looking at the price, as a frugal person, I had decided I would've paid $2 for it, so I recommend this on sale. My main problem when I had first played was the scanlines, however the developer added a toggle to disable them soon after. The art is charming and the tanks change appearance as you upgrade them. It's actually an idle game, rather than an "idle" game that actually wants you to click on something/everything constantly; you unlock an auto click pretty quickly, and clicking faster than the auto never felt necessary. There are a few minor things I'd like updated, posted in the discussions, but overall I had a nice time with the little ants.

so much potential! im just a bit sad that when i got my ants too fast they stopped delivering food :((
