Ok, so I used only 3 additional assets from Unity Asset Store:
*EasyStart Third Person Controller by Conrado Saud
*Stylize Rock Texture by LowlyPoly

Besides it is rather standard Unity libs, or my old code (that I still was needed to rewrite -_-)

Really neat idea that I think suffered from a huge scope. But the idea of mutating your genes to get more powers to fight microbes is an excellent one.

I like this game. It is educational and teaches me more about biology than any biology class did, haha!  I like the simple design and music, it focuses on the educational part and treats the player as a student first. I think simple games like this would be very useful for educational purposes. Keep up the good work!

Thanks! I appreciate it :3

The learning part, actually, came up spontaneously.  I started making a game about a cell, with the idea that you can scale down to the inside of it. And I decided to make this game story-oriented. But then I realised, that not everyone has a degree in biology, so I needed to make sure that I'm explaining everything, but keeping it in a cute dialogue way. So thank you for your feedback! I'm glad that I randomly made an edutainment game ^_^
