After then I had fun developing the DNA sequence.\r\rGraphics were good and consistent, the sound added to the game without becoming repetitive or distracting."},{"author_name":"SteelRaven7","author_uid":"7732","time":"Aug 27, 2012 @ 12:21pm","epoch":1346069760,"text":"A very nice game indeed. It's a nice twist on basic tower defence, a genre I generally hate. This game was minimalistic yet still strategic enough to keep me interested. Very well done!"},{"author_name":"aschearer","author_uid":"15160","time":"Aug 27, 2012 @ 12:27pm","epoch":1346070120,"text":"Great game, though I must confess I was never able to destroy a mutation. After I extended my network out to the corners I wasn't quite sure how to get the white cells to activate. Setting that aside I thought the game was quite polished."},{"author_name":"ncannasse","author_uid":"8497","time":"Aug 27, 2012 @ 12:38pm","epoch":1346070780,"text":"Great gameplay !

Good feel and execution. Quite confusing at first but after a couple of times I got it going real good! Could have used the theme a bit more.

I did encounter a bug on my second go (before I'd figured things out yet) where the dead mutations stopped leaving behind DNA fragments for me to collect, making the game impossible. Thought I was just really bad at it for a while before I realised something was amiss and refreshed. Afterwards got the hang of it, although it's still a well-balanced game and stays challenging throughout."},{"author_name":"ollie","author_uid":"14880","time":"Sep 2, 2012 @ 12:48am","epoch":1346546580,"text":"Seems like a solid puzzle\/tower defence game.

Sorry about bugs - i'm not good at high-speed coding :< I'm glad you all enjoyed game mechanics. I found a good artist on it, so we are turning it into a real rts project.

You have a finely balanced system of mechanics and the game is quite addictive. At some point I start getting overwhelmed and my defense grid goes irrecoverably downhill, but I lasted almost 15 minutes in my second game after taking a little time to understand how things worked together. This is a brilliant game, and amazingly polished for a 48-hour project."},{"author_name":"Gornova","author_uid":"2572","time":"Sep 6, 2012 @ 8:52am","epoch":1346921220,"text":"a good strategic game, a bittle of puzzle, good graphic, strange and charming music make this game one of my favourite of this LD24!
