Ant Farm Idle

A retro ant colony idle game that lives in your toolbar.

Ant Farm is a retro pixel-art idle game about raising a colony of harvester ants (Messor barbarus). It opens from your toolbar, and you can pop it out into its own small window to keep it open while you use your computer. Start with a single queen.
