Tycoon city new york free download. King of dragons sprites. Do you remember SimAnt? That classic Maxis simulator was a great deal of fun, and now it appears that indie developer Slug Disco Studios are channeling it with their new project.
Empires of the Undergrowth is a dungeon management-styled ant colony simulation title. Players will be able to control the construction of nests and tunnels, food gathering, and engage their hordes of ants in battle against opposing colonies.
The team plans to bring Empires of the Undergrowth to PC and mobile. Interested in seeing their title become a reality? Keep an eye out for their Kickstarter campaign which is set to launch on November 17.
Empires of the Undergrowth is an ant colony management game, in a fast-paced real-time strategy style. The player excavates their nest underground, constructing tunnels and chambers to store food and raise brood. On the surface, the ants claim territory, gather resources, overwhelm fearsome arachnids and clash with other colonies. Empires of the Undergrowth – Alpha Download June 11, 2016 April 28, 2016 by Aaron Williams Empires of the Undergrowth is an upcoming RTS being created by Slug Disco that focuses on building an ant colony and protecting your queen in a harsh underground battleground, full of nasty creepy crawlies.
'Empires of the Undergrowth' Early Access Update Adds New Critters, Levels and More - Trailer

Ants are industrious, organised and hungry - as anyone who’s seen one of the multitude of documentaries following their exploits will tell you. They also show a huge variety of adaptations and bizarre traits - qualities that make them seemingly ideal for this form of strategy game.
Above ground, players need to send their ants on long missions, far from the nest to secure and defend lucrative resources. The mechanics are more accessible than your typical RTS; control of your ants is achieved by placing pheromone markers, and gives the colony a more realistic, natural feeling.
The leafcutter update features an all-new rain forest environment with new critters of all sizes, two new levels which will see you face off against fully-fledged colonies, a new Formicarium Challenge where the dastardly scientists have something special planned for you, oh and of course, leafcutter ants!
The game went into Early Access on Steam in December 2017 and was very well received. So much so that we (a development team of three) were able to switch from it being a hobby project to a full time endeavour. The plan was to finish the full game within 18 months from this point, but it soon became clear that the rush into early access had taken its toll on some of the game’s inner-workings and a lot of it needed to be pulled apart and fitted together again for things to continue smoothly. We put out a few small updates in that time to keep things fresh, but this is the first time we have released new environments, species, and fully narrated campaign scenarios since the launch.
To mark the launch of the leafcutter update, we have also produced a new playable demo of the game. It’s a pretty chunky demo, featuring four remastered scenarios from the original demo, as well as a brand new mission for the player to test out leafcutter ants.
Headline Features
New Formicarium Tier Added
- New playable species - The Leafcutters
- Featuring 4 sizes of ant (minims, minors, media and major) which can walk under / over one another
- Major leafcutters are tank units with very high health and come in two forms:
- Stun majors stun targets for 4s and at level 3 will slow them to a crawl for a further 4s
- Taunt majors force targets to attack them for 4s and at level 3 at 50% health will reduce all incoming damage by 80% for 4s
- Unique resource management
- Leafcutters need leaves to cultivate a special fungus which is their only source of food!
- Leaves can be gathered on the surface from various climbable plants
- Once gathered leaves are taken to a leaf drop-off chamber
- Each nursery built spawns a free minim ant (tiny leafcutter)
- The minims take the leaves from the leaf drop-off to nurseries where it is cultivated into fungus that can be spent
- Once fungus is spent, its remains will need to be taken to a refuse chamber where it can safely decompose
- The distance between nurseries, leaf drop off chambers and refuse chambers affects the efficient processing of leaves leading to some careful colony design decisions.
- Two new levels in the rainforests of Ecuador
- Two very different levels with unique challenges and threats with carefully designed difficulty settings to suit you level of play!
- The new environments offer a host of new fauna and flora and have a very different feel to them from previous levels

- Do you think you could hate the evil scientist any more? We think you might after you see what he has in store!

- Shockproof - Limits damage to the major in any single hit
- 4 improvement upgrades to spend that extra jelly on!
- 4 unique upgrade options
- More than double the enemy creatures!
- Variety is the spice of life and the rainforest is the king of variety! Each of the new creatures comes with its own stats and abilities and will require their own approach to take down

Playable missions are narrated from the perspective of a documentary film maker studying the ants, who offers intelligent insight into the goings-on of the colony and the undergrowth beyond. The primary game mode in early access is Formicarium, where you take ownership of a laboratory colony of unique DNA-harvesting ants as they work to assimilate the desirable traits of their foes. You can upgrade them by playing one-off missions, sometimes with your home colony and sometimes with other ant species.
Empires of the Undergrowth is available through Steam Early Access for $19.99
