About Beneath the Roots (prototype)
Beneath the Roots is a strategy game where you manage an underground ant colony under constant threat from surface swarms. Your primary goal is to protect the queen and maintain your colony by digging tunnels, building defensive structures, and managing a biomass economy. You control the action by panning the camera with WASD and using hotkeys to assign gatherers, builders, and soldiers to various tasks. Success depends on balancing your resources to feed the queen while ensuring your defenses are properly staffed to repel incoming waves of invaders.
This title stands out for its grim atmosphere and the challenge of balancing nursery production with active combat. It is well-suited for players who enjoy tactical management and tower defense mechanics. Sessions are fast-paced, focusing on quick decision-making as you expand your tunnels and upgrade your defenses. This prototype was developed with heavy support from AI tools during a game jam.
