An ant colony simulation · made in Godot
Thousands of ants forage, lay trails, and build something you didn't plan. Tune every dial, watch it unfold, and trade your best colonies with everyone else. Free to download, no strings, just ants.
No central plan, no scripted moments. Each ant follows a few simple local rules; the trails, foraging routes, and the colony's overall strategy emerge on their own. That emergent behavior is the whole sim.
Spawn rate, trail decay, sense radius, speed, food density. All live, all in the in-game dock. Break it, fix it, find your sweet spot.
Your whole setup fits in a tiny text file. Export yours, import a friend's, and run their exact colony in seconds.

Suggest features and report bugs on the forum, and share the settings behind your best colonies. It's early days with plenty to improve, and I read every post.
# 4nt colony config colony.start_population = 40 colony.spawn_rate = 1.8 pheromone.decay = 0.02 ant.speed = 1.4 food.density = 0.9
A shared config file. Export yours, swap it, import a friend's.
No paywalls, no premium tier, no "unlock the rest of the ants." It's a solo passion project. If 4nt earned a spot on your machine, a one-time tip keeps the updates coming.
