Slug Disco

Slug Disco is a UK-based indie game developer and publisher with a focus on nature-inspired titles. Founded by a trio of friends (one of them based in Berlin), Slug Disco developed Empires of the Undergrowth, an RTS of ant colonies and insect warfare. We have since expanded into indie game publishing to help fellow indie game developers nurture their own nature-themed projects, from designing and evolving bizarre lifeforms to building and managing entire ecosystems. We provide support on funding, marketing, localization and other functions so indie game developers can focus on creating the best gaming experience.

Empires of the Undergrowth

Command swarms of warriors at an unprecedented scale of warfare in this blend of RTS and base-building. Lead ant colonies against the many fearsome threats of the insect world, while building intricate nests, developing pheromone-based tactics, and evolving to meet growing dangers.
