One of the best decisions we made when making EotU was adding a screenshot mode - players make our game look all the prettier in screenshots on a daily basis! Highly recommended to any indie devs reading. TY to немец, tibikee & Grolgungus. #screenshotsaturday #indiegames

Leafcutter ants collect leaves from their surroundings to grow a nutritious fungus. They may not be meat eaters - but those mandibles are powered by huge muscles and are capable of breaking human skin with ease. Rainforest & leafcutter remaster coming soon! #screenshotsaturday #games #indiegames

The sun has risen, the daytime creatures stir. The army ants will soon be on the march. The leafcutter ants will need to put up a strong show of force to repel them. 3.2 Front Line art refresh - WIP #indiedev #gamedev #MadeWithUnreal
