First time in a long time that Matt learned things in a timely manner and put that knowledge to use to play incrementally better and better through out the episode, proud of you Matt, lol

4:17 Because it’s a Latin word and English speakers don’t know how to deal with it. “Larva” is singular, and “larvae” is plural. Since few English speakers know this, we wind up using them basically interchangeably. (“Datum” and “data,” “antenna” and “antennae,” and “alumnus” and “alumni” are some other common Latin words that retained their original plural forms. We misuse most of those, too.)

Add a trail from the small ant spawner to the food route so that your colony grows itself. Use the bigger ants that don't have timed life to transport scrap, refined metal and larvae.

This was really cool. I can see a lot of potential. You gotta cover this when it fully launches again.

Merging is useful for population control. They do not live twice longer, but they can be as numerous. So, in the end, you are still having an advantage to merge!

Coming across this video on one of my favorite channels was such a mind fuck. I went on a date with the guy that made this game and I just had the deja vu of a lifetime. Took me a while to remember everything he told me LOL

Sentry ants are just the starting four ants. They have an infinite amount of energy and can only haul and forage to make sure that you never get softlocked, but you don’t have incredibly overpowered ants at the very start.

Ok you need to do a full game series on this one please

I want to see more of this game! I hope the demo gets more content or the full game releases soon!

This is so efficient he boasts, while his ants pickup stuff from the first leg of a journey and then wander around in a large circle before dropping it off.

Even if merging results in mere 1.5 ants worth of energy it's still better than 2 smaller ants since it consumes twice as less energy per interval.

It is Factoria but with ants, rather than conveyor belts. Seeing some of the demo images this game gets nuts. Also playing the game, it really wants you to use the logic gates to make any real progress. It is a fun game but it makes my brain hurt to do the logic and make it all work.

14 minutes for him to figure out why they die.

I was on the fence about this game, right up to where you opened up a tech tree. Buying for sure now.

This is cool! It is like Timberborn but the beavers are not multipurpose workers.

Watching an rce video for 11:56 seconds before he finally decides to automate the most time sensitive part of the resource loop by doing what I was thinking could work sinse around 5 minutes in. I will say though that I am a bit impressed that you didn't decide the devider would be good for the nursing area, as you could aeasily devide them however you want from one devider and if you don't want the ants to be split evenly you could always just add another devider or make certain routes loop back to the first one depending on your reasuorce needs, I thought you would use these as you mentioned them shortly before as you discovered them in the game and you started using them right away but failed to see that the devider would be quite good a dispecing the ants to their jobs. ps he did the devider thing like 2 minutes later, very good Matt, do it first next time. Also MATT don't add 3 deviders and 2 cmbiners to make ''lv2'' workers for each side, make all the incubators go in to a or a line of combiners then use deviders to get them where you need them. it's essentially don't build a small farm in every state, build one really big one where you want it and spread your product from there

Another potential soap for RCE? Could be interesting.

I’ve had half an idea of a making a game that is reverse factorio where the bugs are the ones doing the mining and resource extraction. Looks like this game had a similar idea. Instant wishlist!

This game looks very addicting. And the sfx is so powerful, it feels like working in some sort of manufacturing plants.

This looks like a game matt will be addicted to if he plays it more and gets to know more about the mechanics

Timberborn but ants?

4:15 Larva (LAR-vuh) is the singular form, Larvae (LAR-vee) is the plural form. So it's larva since they're referring to a single larva, and not a group of larvae. Hope that helps 🙂

I noticed that you spoke just a little bit slower than usual. Afterwards, I realized I had watched the entire episode at 0.75 speed. It still sounded relaxing. Good job! 🙂

Hope to see more of this game from you once it's out

Really interesting game. Love to see it after the release.

I wasnt expecting body horror out of an ant game

The average lifespan of an ant depends on the species and caste. Generally, the larger the ant, the longer its lifespan. Queens and larger workers(present in some species) usually have longer lifespans than smaller workers. Larger species of ants also have longer lifespans than smaller ones.

Ngl, this game looks proper amazing. Love the hauling system, it seems more versartile than the treadmills sytem we see everywhere.

Just RCE casually learning how to build electronic circuits.

How many different ways can you remake Factorio? Let's find out together.

reminds me of that weird game on n64 I played as a kid with its totaly weird name where you are an animal controlling thing. scared me hellla

I've been wondering if you need to combine ants of same size or if you could combine the worker with small worker for example.

Well that got interesting at the end.

I actually have an ant farm, sadly not going to well as I expected. Great video

OMG RCE... I have an obsession with hive minds, maybe sprouting from Stellaris. Watch ur vids all the time... Saw this, forgot what I was doing. Now this... This takes priority.

More hive mind pls!

So the inventor ants are like architects? In that they can't do anything (useful)?

I have a pretty bad phobia of ants, but when RCE plays games about ants? 100% worth it

4:17 sometimes there's an E and not an A because when it was written/typed, the writer used an E instead of an A. It can't be spelt with a A if the E was selected instead.

Ive had my eye on this one. Looks really fun. Day 1 of asking Matt to play Balatro.

Wow, really enjoyed this. When does a full game release?

Queen Ant Nado? Whats this dude on?!? 😂

what a cracking little game 😊

Can this be a series

So inefficient. True Architect

i think the 20mm is a 20mm socket so it more like a 30mm diameter

If he's having this much trouble with "larva," then it's a good thing this game doesn't have pupae.

Matt, (besides Timberborn of course) which of these types of games do you think is the most finished and most longevity for content?

hey try looking up empires of the undergrowth sometimes if you want to try an ant rts, it's a cool game

The architects don't make the safety features but the engineers have to do all the work for some reason. 🤓

Okay, that looks cool..... Oh, hmm, cool pathing idea, yeah, this isn't bad.... Hot damn, look at that tech tree, okay this is real now, let's go!

First he unalives all the beavers, then he unalives all the penguins, and now he's unaliving all the ants. He's a one man E.L.E.

I am dying for Matt to start a series other than Timberborners and cities skylines. Don’t get me wrong, I love them, but when Matt plays an amazing game with great series potential and then abandons it, it hurts my soul
