You are just one cell in a crowded petri dish, trying to stay alive and grow.


Engulf different cell parts to improve how your cell behaves and expel parts to swap them out for different ones.

Some promising protozoans have been seen to grow to up to 80 micrometers. Can you survive long enough to make it to full size?





- Tips -

Eating Other Cells

You can engulf other cells by merging into them, when this happens, both cells will rapidly loose energy and health. The larger you are, the faster you will drain your opponent. 


Collecting Cell Parts

If you find or acquire cell parts, you can absorb them to become more powerful. Your cell can only hold a limited number of cell parts, so you must grow bigger to carry more of them.


Antibodies

Watch out for antibodies, they are small and red; they float outside of the cell and weaken nearby cells, causing the victim to lose mass and drop cell parts. Antibodies are an effective ranged weapon and can defend you in a pinch. They can be produced from particular cell parts.

absolutely loved this, i wish i saw the controls before playing but that's on me lol. the mechanic of eating other cells is also really interesting.

thanks for playing

i've just "beaten" the game, or so i think. is there a max size in place?

yes, the max size should be 80um. well done for reaching max size, it is not an easy task.
