i didn't get a notification when you posted this! it was like coming back to a really cool easter egg. thank you for your valuable feedback, and it's terrific to see that i communicated the concept so clearly. there's a huge reward in seeing the themes of the game being appreciated as an integral part of the experience rather than a hurdle.
speaking of revisiting, i'll be putting up a new page within the next couple of days for something big.
Oh, I just watched the videos for BIOMASS: Growth, and it's looking great! I dig the more detailed - and grosser - art style, and I can see the underlying mechanics from the original game still at play here. I'm happy to see that you are revisiting this great concept, and I'm excited to check it out.
