About

Antic Games

Antic Games is a remote-first indie game studio based in Vancouver, BC, Canada. We are currently pouring our collective talents into our debut title SuperColony. It's not just a game; it's a reflection of our love for RTS, intricate gameplay mechanics, a light-hearted art style with space for comedic elements, and a deep appreciation for the natural world.

Our Values

The foundation we build our game studio upon:

Love. We get excited about what we're working on, and believe if you want to make games that other people will love, you need to put love into them.
Growth. Our standards are high, but so is our compassion. There is no failure, only course corrections that brings our team closer to our shared goal.
Vision. We're future oriented. When we build anything we ask ourselves how we can build for later too, now. Whether it's our tech or our brand, we value our team's energy.

Featured Game

SuperColony is a real-time Ant-Colony Simulation game set in the tiny world of insects where you play as the director of an ant colony. Your role is to guide them to success by managing their unique ability to direct their own evolution. Collect DNA and Genes from other insects to become more like them, crafting unique castes with outlandish capabilities. There’s a lot of cool stuff to make for these systems!
