Great theme implementation and gameplay, would have loved some sound but that may be just a personal opinion. Great job!

Eugenics: The Game!

honestly tho great take on the theme done very well just think that the game needed some sounds lol

Great interpretation of the theme, really enjoyed playing. The game could've used a tutorial level with more easy to create colors for beginners, Also when every blob is removed the game doesn't stop automatically.

It's amazing idea and interpretation!

BUT, because of its originality, it requires detailed tutorial (I got the main idea on third attempt)

I think this game was a really interesting concept, but lacked player feedback to be clear how I can achieve the game's goal. I could see the shades of color changing, but I was like, "how red does it need to be?". I wasn't sure if I was getting closer or further from the goal sometimes. "Wait...is that getting more red or more purple now?"

Perhaps something a bit more clear-cut would work well for this, where you can see clearly defined stages of progression. One eyed blobs breed to make two-eyed blobs, and then 3-eyed blobs breed to make 4-eyed blobs, and so on. Something with more distinct visual feedback. It would be much more readable than a slight variation in hue which all sort of felt red-ish after a while, and it was hard to determine which blobs I should breed.

Sorry if that sounded super critical. I just really liked the concept and the blob designs were cute, so I very much wanted to enjoy this game more, but I found myself scratching my head a bit trying to progress. Nice work on the core design though! It has potential for sure!

Wow, this was a ton of fun!

This was a super unique entry that didn't feel anything like the others I had played. I don't have much to say about the gameplay, other than the fact that you could really benefit from quality-of-life improvements. Holding right click to clear blobs would help, as would something like a group delete.

No sounds was very disappointing.

This game isn't accessible to people with color-blindness, and also made me question if I had color-blindness. Defining what Red, Blue, and Green are without a specific range is very frustrating! I wish there were more colors and more leniency.
