That's quite a resemblance there. Do you think you'll ever come out with an expansion pack that turns the goo balls into ants? That might be cool. :) I also like the goo wrecking ball idea. Wow!

Now I am sad ;( Do you tell me that I kill the cute little goo-balls by placing them in awesome structures? I cannot do that! That is racist. Black goo-balls die, while the green goo-balls keep on living. :x Oh noes. Now I am sad ;(

Goo like ants. Good to hear you're putting in the whistle, It'll be very useful. Also, wrecking ball is an excellent idea. You'd have to have a way to make it swing though... perhaps do the level with green/detachable gooballs, then you could pull out one strategic gooball and watch the whole thing swing! PS: awesome picture of the human bridge there. Hehehe. Goo like ants.

They also make big 'ant balls' to float over water: http://claycoleman.tripod.com/id180.htm :) -Kees Ants do other shapes too that remind me of one of the levels in chapter 1.

They covered this. Army ants will even form themselves in to a ball with the queen @ the center to protect her @ night. Tumbler right there! :D As a fan of “SimAnt” ~90% of the manual for that game was ant info. They covered this.

I think we're also putting in the frequently requested whistle! Thanks for discovering the ants. :) I remember now, in the opening of the movie "Antz" (with a Z) (or that other movie about ants that came out at the same time as that pixar one about ants), a bunch of them crawl all over each other and create a wrecking ball out of their little living CG selves and smash through something. Level ideas are everywhere! Yep. I think we’re also putting in the frequently requested whistle! Thanks for discovering the ants. :)
