Pic-Nickers - Gnomes Under The Hammer

Hey you! We need your help managing this Ant Army! 

Pic-Nickers is a game about defending your army of ants as they try to collect food from a what the giants that roam our lands call a "picnic". To us, it's the future of our colony!

Unfortunately, getting to and from this picnic isn't without it's risks. 

1. The eyes of the giant are upon us. If one of our comrades gets spotted, they get blasted by a powerful nerve gas the giants can dispense.
2. It's been raining pretty heavily recently. Rain droplets have been falling off of nearby plants and crushing our comrades.

That's where you come in, from your vantage point, you can see these hazards, and warn your comrades when to stop!
