Is there a win condition beyond not dying? Still not sure if I did everything right, but it seems like I wasn't dying.

This definitely wasn't very intuitive. It felt way too hard. But I'm sure that could have been solved by slowly unlocking sliders, starting with only one patient, starting out with slower bacteria, etc if you had more time.

And a bit of a nitpick: the canvas size is really big. I think you should aim for something where the whole canvas fits on the screen in a typical browser on a 1080p display. Full screen button worked fine, but it was awkward to scroll down to the full screen button when entering/exiting full screen.

Yeah, I really liked the look of it and the chaos of it and I like matching games (like brain challenges). The only thing lacking, like everyone else is point out, is feedback when getting things right. But I liked it nonetheless

looks interesting, but couldn’t figure what each slider did. You could maybe add some description of what each slider is.

Looks great. Bacteria moving a bit too fast for me so I can't distinguish the patterns.

Didn't manage to get into it, I think what's mostly missing is some feedback when I'm doing the right or wrong thing, I mostly kept loosing without really understanding why. Art does look cute though !

I wish I had more time to add some feedback and make the game more intuitive. Thank you for your comment, I may update the game after the jam is over so please do check back 🙏
