Pzants

This is a game submission for Ludum Dare 59

Pzants is a colony survival game built around the theme of Signal. You play as a dapper fire ant equipped with a monocle and an extraordinary resource: Pzazz, a pheromone powered signal that commands your follower ants. Use it wisely to direct them into ant holes for safety, but beware: your Pzazz depletes while ants are hiding, and when it runs out, the signal breaks and they emerge whether you like it or not. Shoot fireballs at patrolling spiders, collect food to restore your health, and get as many followers as you can back to the ant hill. The colony follows your signal don't let it go quiet.
