Rules of the game

• Pebbles, stones and rocks are placed randomly into the sand background game scene, the number of pebbles is set in config.js (default: 200)
• An ant is also placed randomly : the initial number of ants is set in config.js, and you can change it in live with up and down arrow keys
• When the game starts the ants start walking
• When an ant touch a pebble, it brings it
• When an ant has reached its maximum capacity, it drops all its pebbles at the current place, change of direction and start walking again
• If an ant has just dropped its pebbles, there is a short time during it cannot take new pebble (dropTimeout)

You win when all the pebbles are placed into only one heap.
