Steam Store description

You're an insectoid alien fighting over Jupiter’s moon Europa. It’ll be a tough battle - a test of your strategy, intuition, and perseverance. Your minions control themselves , using "fuzzy logic" to pick the best target. Your job as the queen is to focus on strategy . Mutate your eggs so you can create combat minions - but you only have 4 "egg slots", so you must choose . Make sure to spawn Harvester bugs to collect nectar resources. When and what you choose to spawn or mutate is a big part of the tactical choice. And always watch the chaos of battle . Predicting the outcome of a fight can help you decide your next move. In each of the 21 campaign levels , the enemy Swarm Queen has a new unit or ability , which you then unlock for use in later levels . The enemy queen spawns Harvesters, collects nectar, and unlocks units just like you do. She judges the situation and tries to counter you as best as she can . The enemy’s advantage is that she has a surprise new unit or ability in each level. But, she usually only has access to a few other units.

You could also try going back and beating levels on hard mode (good luck!), or starting a “New Game Plus” (added in a free update) with extra nectar for both queens. In the biggest update yet, version 2.0 includes an alternate "cartoon" art style , Steam achievements , visible enemy " emotions ", an "easy" difficulty setting , and more ! S…
