In what way does your game fit the theme?
In my game you sow the seeds of evolution, and then watch the chaos unfold.
The more chaos you create, the more likely your score when judged will be high!
Did you write all the code yourself and made all the assets from scratch?
I wrote all the code myself in Unity (this can be seen by the slowdown when things get really chaotic!)

Very fun, very original
I don't know why when I first started making my entry, I forgot that evolution could be chaotic. Indeed, with the right orb setup, this can get quite chaotic, really fast! Loving the soundtrack and the graphics! Plus, pulling off online stuff, even if it's only leaderboards, is something I rarely see in game jams!
Did not encounter major bugs, though I would have liked to see a reset or erase button at the placing orbs step. When I try to do a specific setup and I mess it up, I currently need to go through all other steps to come back to this one.
Minus that, great original entry, amazing job!
1107 - I knew I must have done something right when my computer slowed down to a crawl :D
Really enjoy the concept, creating a complex reaction from very simple initial conditions. the game rewards a bit of experimentation but maybe it would be cool to start small and then scale up to learn the basic rules of interaction in a more intuitive way, starting with 60 seeds(?) makes it a bit tricky to follow what's going on initially. But the reaction is mesmerising, very cool particle effects! Like the graphical style and calming music, very nice!
Good idea to start off with a lower number and introduce the interactions, I may well use that in future, thanks!
Chaos from simple rules that is what i like to see :D Definetly the most interesting game in this jam i have played so far :] Also the scoreboard is a great addition !
Sadly i think in current state the game is more like a simulation rather than a game :/ I would like to see more interactions with the player in some way :]
Overall this was a refreshing experience from playing other jam games. I loved it great work !
Thanks, yep given more time I could expand it to let you interact in the main phase too, perhaps drop a black hole to pull organisms towards it, or a tornado type effect to mix them all up
Could add the ability to mutate an existing organism to change its colour as well, to get things back on track when it all goes a bit wrong!
Hi, I enjoyed playing this, graphics are simple and effective, the soundtrack is good and the mechanics and strategy of trying to create as many reds as possible by strategic placement of the 3 types was interesting - I managed 612 as my highest score. The addition of a leaderboard was a nice touch and added some replayability. Bit disappointed to miss out on the top 10.
Perhaps some variety could be added (walls? etc) to give a few different scenarios and leaderboards for each - but with the time we had this does the job nicely.
Well done.
AWESOME!
Amazing game concept...Loved the evolution theme that did show some chaos in it
Beautiful game and amazing concept
Eyy got 875! Cool idea for a game!
whoa, trippy graphics yo
I didn't understand what to do at first, but it started to make sense after playing a few rounds! I wanna get good and get the high score!!!!!
The game is very fun! Making the chain reactions is interesting and fun to experiment with. It could be better if you had a lot of levels that had different maximum seeds, or objects that get in the way of changing the colors. Maybe include the other colors as partial contribution to the points. Awesome game!
Pretty neat idea, tho i cant figure out how to get a high score lol but congo to those who did! Good job and keep it up!
Cool Concept . Keep Up!!
GOOD
Rated. :) Good Job.
Best game I've played for now (Actually I've just played few games x) )
It's just a little bit too powerful for my PC with 6GO Ram
Thanks, I spent a day or so optimising, but when the organisms can double each second it's hard to keep it going!
loved the game! sort of confused on how someone managed to get 4919 tho ;)
You need to get a cyclic ecosystem going, it can be exponential after a while, I had to actually cap the total number of organisms to stop it grinding to a complete halt :D
cool!
This was amazing! With audio changing depending on what you do and the stunning graphics I will be returning to this game after I've rated.
