Ant Does Detailwork

In Ant Does Detailwork, you control a small ant that works for a famous carpenter. He provides you with clean-cut wood pieces, trusting you to carve out the embellishments. Your job is to trace out the given patterns without getting lost in the details!

Your moveset is simple: you can move one tile in any direction, or charge up a jump that vaults you over one tile of wood and into the next. Any tile of wood you touch, you eat! If you eat a tile twice, you will bore a hole in it, and you'll have to start over.

This game works on keyboard and is additionally compatible with Xbox / PlayStation controllers.
