WIKI

  • ANTS: Place them in empty areas to colonize adjacent lands.
  • TERMITES: ants won't walk into their territory, so get rid of them!
  • WASPS: they eat nearby termites AND ants. They fly away and disappear after some time.
  • BEETLE: it runs towards the closest wall, destroying everything in its path.

fun game (i like how you interpreted the theme) like chasing my highscore, currently at 74%. 

got up to 80%

Glad you enjoyed it! :) 80% is a very high score, I haven't seen anything above 90% yet

It has nice mechanics. It's a vice try to get a new highscore. Funny game!

Could you make a game mode where you see how long it takes you to fill the map, I think that would be a lot of fun, great game
