We're getting there with the new fire ant bridge system! A bridge can be assembled and disassembled quickly, allowing the fire ants to access resources and territory that would otherwise be unavailable to them. #screenshotsaturday #indiedev #gamedev #UE4 #ants #entomology

In the next Empires of the Undergrowth update we're bringing the leafcutter ants to freeplay mode! The update is in beta right now. Here they are, collecting leaves to fuel their fungus farms in freeplay map Towhead. #screenshotsaturday #indiedev #gamedev #UE4 #ants #entomology

Fire ants (Solenopsis invicta) can use their own bodies to form water-floating bridges that reach to otherwise inaccessible locations! They provide a platform along which their sisters can travel to get to resources. #screenshotsaturday #indiedev #gamedev #UE4 #ants #entomology

Our heartiest congratulations to Empires of the Undergrowth developer John for the further expansion of his colony - his wife gave birth to a health baby boy last night! He'll be taking a little time off to settle the little one into the nest, but we wish him the best!

Been a month since Empires of the Undergrowth 1.0 was released - thank you so much for all your support. These tier 5-themed shots came from our Discord (link in thread). TY to SlushieChris, Medin, Zvistic & Dani1005 for these! #screenshotsaturday #indiedev

Comparison of just some of the creatures in Empires of the Undergrowth's 4th tier, from the fire ant to the titanic Great Blue Skimmer. There are rumours of an even bigger creature wallowing in the swamps of North Carolina... #screenshotsaturday #indiegame #UE4 #MadeWithUnreal

A very Happy New Year to you all! Most of us will be quite glad to see the back of 2020. Let's stride forward with optimism into 2021. Good will to all ants. #HappyNewYear #IndieDev #GameDev #UE4 #MadeWithUnreal #EotU

Fire ants building a bridge with their own bodies! Other fire ants can reach otherwise unreachable resources with it. This is very much a WIP - the ants won't queue up like they do in this video & it'll look more natural. #screenshotsaturday #indiedev #gamedev #UE4 #ants #EotU

You can build large armies of ants in Empires of the Undergrowth, overwhelming enemy creatures and ensuring victory for the colony. Thanks to doom guy, Flippy3394 and Dolly on our Discord for these swarming screenies! #screenshotsaturday #indiedev #gamedev #UE4 #MadeWithUnreal

The northern dune tiger beetle (darker colouration) is replacing beach tiger beetle in EotU. It's scaled a bit more realistically. What do you think? Scale it up a little to match the old one, or is the more true-to-life scaling better? #screenshotsaturday #indiedev #gamedev

Work continues apace on the rainforest art refresh! Going for the same general scheme as the old style, but with much higher fidelity assets and all those great tree roots to really ground it in the jungle. Empires of the Undergrowth is out in 1.0 now! #screenshotsaturday
