Pretty fun gameplay, it was really satisfying to collect the dots and kill the other bacteria. The idea of getting random mutations added onto your character as you collect more of the dots is super interesting and creative, I thoroughly enjoyed that. Enemy AI is also hilarious lmfao. Great work and a nice submission!
Really Cool game, I liked the wobbly bits that the players have. Glad you could participated! ;)
reminds me a ton of the spore cell stage! i do wish you could control your mutations, also maybe if you got longer after a certain score would've been cool (new segment every 10 points?) but it was a fun time while i played it, i got 49 for my high score. i would've liked the game to expand on concepts further, but it's got some really great potential if you wanted to go on with this in the future
Cool concept, it's like a variation on snake that uses the theme well! I think it would have been nice to have some control over what mutations you get like in Gradius, or at least some balance to the randomization. Eating a bunch of proteins and only getting spikes and moving slowly took some of the momentum out. Still, I had fun playing it and trying to get a higher score(I got 54). Fun game!
Hey got around 120 highscore, idk if theres an ending as the bacteria seems stop evolving at sometimes, it feels nice when the enemies die and you collect all their points, plus the mutations being random is a nice touch.
I absolutely love the concept and the realization. Really fun and intriguing, congratulations!
