Swarm Queen is a one-man indie project and first commercial release from Canadian developer Helmi Bastami, formerly a hobbyist animator and creator of Flash games on Flyborg. Swarm Queen contains a "100% scientifically accurate" depiction of Jupiter's moon Europa, including all of the alien life. Swarm Queen is inspired by insects, and classic sci-fi aliens like Xenomorphs, Zerg, and the "Bugs" from Starship Troopers. For a tough battle, replay levels on hard mode, or try the " New Game Plus" mode added in the latest update. Unlock new creatures and abilities as you play through dozens of levels, including bonus " challenge levels" which put a twist on the normal gameplay. This allows them to travel easily with the bulk of an army. Swarm Queens are faster than an MP Queen both on creep and especially off creep, matching the movement speed of a basic Roach. Gather resources with "Harvester" units, mutate your eggs into new types of minions, build your army, and spit globs of Neurotoxin at the enemy horde while the battle rages on.īuild your army out of 18 different minions, from electricity-shooting shell-covered beasts, to flying bat-like bomb-carriers, each with their own strengths and weaknesses. Swarm Queens have no ability to Spawn Larva, and therefore do not serve any economic purpose, unlike the MP Queen's central economic role. See when your friends are hanging out nearby, so you never miss out on the fun. Since your swarm fights on its own, your job as the queen is to focus on strategy. Earn prizes and compete with friends based on the places you go. Your beautiful minions control themselves, using "fuzzy logic" to pick the best target. Swarm Queen is a quick-to-learn, tactical, and challenging tug-of-war strategy game about insect-like aliens battling over Jupiter's moon, Europa.
