Hard to play when you're not using a qwerty keyboard. :-)
I'm also not sure what the advantage of joining together vs spreading out was.

mine crashed when I tried to split apart D:
It's a lot of fun though, a tutorial or some signposting could help a lot. I didn't really know what to do until I got a ranged bot and started playing it like a top down shooter. the aesthetics are really clean which makes it easy to spot what's friend and foe even at small scale.

That is a very impressive score! How the hell did you manage to get that far? :D
When you are joined together you won't spawn new cells so that is the tradeoff, but seems you have mastered it quite well on your own :)
Yes, it is my bad since i didn't have time to properly explain the mechanic in some kind of tutorial.
But basically, different bots give you different types of powerups when merged, Circle bots give you damage while ranged only gives you range attack. You still need to combine these two for dealing damage. Only having ranged won't deal that much damage.
Keep in mind that you won't spawn circle bots when joined together, only when disconnected.
Thank you for the feedback!
