The player can only select a new amino acid that is higher than the precedent: the amino acid chain only goes up!
Cookies eaten
None, but I did eat a lot of cereal bars, waffles and toasts.

nice puzzle game got stuck on level 4 not sure what to do with the order they are on screen probably missing a really simple thing sigh. But anyways nice art work and good puzzle game from what I was able to play.
There are powers available from level 4 and on! Look at the right of the screen, the button with two pink arrows. You can click once to activate the power, and then click on two amino acids to swap their positions. If you get stuck in a level, the button with a "?" displays a hint, but it's easy to miss. Thank you for taking the time to play and leave a comment!
ah neat that makes thing a lot easier thanks.
Started off kinda weird but ended up as a pretty cool puzzle game. I dont really like puzzle games but this one is great. Love the art n stuff too
Cute art and fun puzzles, love the simplicity it really works with this game!
Really cute artwork. I got hardstuck on puzzle 6, pretty inventive. Check out my live review at https://www.twitch.tv/scalphamission
I really love the cuteness of graphics and music. Everything fit together :) I don't feel well in puzzle games but in your game I spend nice time :D I hope you will continue this game and make more levels and tricky twist like chain aminos and swap. Good job :)
Nice sound and graphics.The puzzles were interesting.Good job
Amazingly made game with great level design and art.
Hey! Nice seeing you here again from past jams! Super cute art style, lots of polish, and very creative puzzles! Level 6 and 7 were great, I loved the mind-boggling aspect of swapping. Great job! I could play more of this.
Thank you so much! It means a lot that you loved the game (and that you even remember me from previous jams, that was a while ago!)
I've added some more levels in the meantime, you can give it a try if you want! I had so many ideas for the game, I possibly couldn't fit them all in the span of a week end. I'm not sure the new levels are as challenging as I would have liked, but level design is hard x)
I'm glad you enjoyed playing my game! See you in a next jam!
Nice Game!
What a cute, good looking and polished game! I was a little lost at first, didn't know i had to touch the ? button, but then it was pretty straightforward.
Nice game, with cute graphics and audio. I think that the simple premise is nice and prevents good challenge. What is the cursor image for the swap though?
Really fun game! I loved the idea, the graphics and the puzzles. I got stuck at level 6, I couldn't figure out a way to do it with just one swap. I'll come back and try again. Very well done!
Edit: Just finished the last two levels. They're so clever, I want more! This just took the game from a 4 to 5 for me!
Thank you for coming back and congratulations for solving the last levels! I have delayed my answer quite a bit because I was working on some new levels. They didn't end up as challenging as I would have liked, but maybe you'll enjoy giving them a try :)
Thank you for your comment! I'm so happy you liked the game!
In this game, I felt not very smart, but her cuteness outweighed that.
Thank you for your comment! I'm glad you found the game cute. If you got stuck at any point, you can display a hint by clicking the "?" button above the validation button. But I have to agree that itwasn't very clear... Thank you for taking the time to play and leave a comment!
This is an amazing and cute little game! I love the art style and the puzzles are really fun to figure out. I made it to level 6 until I got stuck for a little.
Thank you for playing! I'm glad you liked it. Did you manage to get pass level 6 in the end? There's a little hint for each level when clicking on the question mark above the validation button, in case you need some help :)
Thank you for your feedback!
Ooh no I didn't manage. I'll try that out soon!
