Game Description
It's a little game / software where you grow digital cells in an environment you have the control of. You don't understand the cause-effect relations properly, tho...

How does your game tie into the theme?
The cells do as they want, and grow quickly into chaos. You have some kind of power tho, and can interact/organize with this puddle of life !!

What a cool idea, definitely controlled chaos. I loved the idea and the execution, just was wishing for maybe time controls? To speed up? But overall really original idea.

Developer

Thank you very much !! Yeah I will update it after the jam ends, to add more… possible chaos ??

Neat, I like these simulation type games! Cool style all around, although perhaps I added a few too many spots at once because it slowed down a bit. Maybe a little more die-off to help optimize performance? Cool to see the sample images to see what's possible too. Would love to see if you can either add in objectives or maybe multiple cultures at once so we can more easily compare what the settings do as we play around with them!

Developer

Yeah !! I plan on making a better cell culture simulator one of these days :)) Also you’re absolutely right the game is very badly optimized :O I take in notes your ideas, thank you very much !!!

Pros: Clever idea, I've always enjoyed life simulation type games. Playing with the controls to figure out what did what was fun. Also appreciated the toki pona language option ;)

Cons: Font was pretty hard to read, and the slow pace of the simulation made it hard to suss out what each of the controls did.
