Looks nice. :)

Sorry for my denseness... but what is this for?

Few years ago I wrote an ant ai simulation, at the time I had ideas about how I could turn it into a game, so I will be doing just that with monkey and this is some of the art for it, although the ai behind it all will be based on ants , driver ants mainly and leaf cutters, I will be skinning it like its in space and instead of ants it will be space ships.

Sounds awesome.

I really liked playing "SimAnt" many years ago. Don't know if you're familiar with it. :)

Edit: Just saw the post on your website about it. Sounds interesting!

yeah loved it. not sure if SimAnt actually modeled real ant behavior in the way I will be tho, not sure science really understood ants the way they do now.

Glad you like the idea, just hope it's something I manage to finish and it does not just end up another half done project, the plague of not being able to finish lol...

You going to put any cool Easter eggs in there from "Hunny I shrunk the kids" or "The borrowers" or the 60's classic "Land of the Giants".
