I also like the turn based tactics design, except it is veeery slow to play. Each microbe taking a turn at a time, slowly ambling about and then it *crashed* :boom:\n\nI had about 10 microbes sitting around, not one being able to terminate an enemy. Growing fat and complacent and then it *crashed* :boom:\n\nIt also *crashes* a lot, and I mean a lot. Could not finish one match completely. :boom::boom::boom:","likes":0,"format":"md"},{"author_name":"kyle-smith","author_uid":"1012364","time":"2017-05-15T23:37:55Z","epoch":1494891475,"modified":1494891475,"text":"Dang. That'll teach me to not check the comments more often. Fixed the crashing bug I introduced in 1.2. And I also agree the pace is a bit slow.

Your goal is to eliminate all your enemies (the Germs) to move on, but it won't be so easy. You can't consume an enemy germ unless you're large enough (2 sizes bigger).\n### Growing\nTo grow your microbe you must consume things. You can consume food (green orbs), smaller germs, or even your own microbes.\n (you monster!)\n### Splitting\nYou can only grow so much though. After a certain point your microbe will divide into two smaller microbes. This grants you a tactical advantage but also makes you vulnerable until you grow larger again.\n### Dangers\nNot only are there germs running around trying to consume you, but there are also dangers like viruses. A virus can infect any microbe and after a few turns the microbe will die and release two viruses. Viruses will shift about aimlessly but don't get caught off gaurd!\nThere are also deadly anti-biotics. At least ... they're mostly deadly.
