These are so cool! They remind me of the Nintendo games of my youth. How in the world do you make these?

Just asking, are you the one who does the wiggly antenna pixel ant on the Ants & Antkeeping discord server? Cool art.

Pixel art is fun.

 

Try doing a millipede.  Might give you a challenge to get all those legs animated.

Very nice!


Hi there! I went on a 6 month or so hiatus, in part due, and in part cause of the death of my colonies. 

However, I went back to the Sierras, and restarted my collection, which is now as follows:

Aphaenogaster uinta, Camponotus vicinus, Camponotus modoc, Formica cf. aserva, Formica cf. micropthalma, Formica cf. manni, Formica subpolita, Formica cf. subaenescens, Lasius americanus, Manica invidia, Pogonomyrmex salinus, Pogonomyrmex sp. 1, Solenopsis validiuscula, & Solenopsis sp. 3 (new Sierra variant).

You should do a Mole Cricket. These pixel animations are really cool!

The claws might do well translated to pixels.
