Keep the ads. Games are not easy to make, and I don't mind them.
However, please prioritize the quicker ants when making Art. I have several purple ones, and when I see slow black ones make art, it really makes them lose their value.
Good in theory, but you need to communicate more information to the player, such as prices, and what resources are called/colored as.
Possibly a better way to display machines and upgrades would not hurt either.
I like the game. Scratch that, I like the IDEA of the game. The consistent payout system is okay in theory, but if you buy units at the start of a payout system, then it become redundant. I'd play this more if I knew how much the next upgrade would cost. And possibly for other upgrades than how many units you can house would be nice, so I don't sit here for another 5 minutes waiting for another upgrade. It isn't a bad attempt, and I can see a future with this.
Solved, now you cannot overspend on red gold.
