Is there a way to sustain life on such a harsh planet? Am I just supposed to eventually die, always? I was kind of hoping to find a berry combo that would give me a lot of life, and make me feel good, and explore the world. The controls were ok, and the art was simple but effective. I just wish I could have figured out what it was that the game really wanted me to do as far as mixing.\n\nThe shadow of myself being the zombies was a cool effect which made me think about where I want to go, to make for an easier path for my future self. Nice trick!\n\nThank you for the game.","likes":1,"format":"md"},{"author_name":"pedrocoden","author_uid":"1192367","time":"2020-10-12T05:05:10Z","epoch":1602479110,"modified":1602479110,"text":"Nice game!","likes":1,"format":"md"},{"author_name":"nicardo","author_uid":"1010469","time":"2020-10-12T06:45:44Z","epoch":1602485144,"modified":1602485144,"text":"Nice concept, didnt understand the shadow.","likes":1,"format":"md"},{"author_name":"Sli","author_uid":"1135706","time":"2020-10-14T22:53:54Z","epoch":1602716034,"modified":1602718593,"text":"Wow nice concept. Took 2,3 tries to figure out what is going on. And then played far too much :smile:. My only issue is when there are to many barriers (like 40+) it is pretty difficult to mix them. I would love an option to cancel a choice, because when you misclick when they are so small you are basically screwed. Also this is not big but when you are mixing you are still moving and this leads to being hit by the shadow some times.\nOverall I had great fun. I didn't try easy mode. I had great fun. I will actually play one more now :smile: \n\nEdit: I managed to run it out of memory :smile: So i went for smaller combos\n![2020-10-15.png](\/\/\/raw\/a12\/12\/z\/3a29f.png)\n![2020-10-15 (1).png](\/\/\/raw\/a12\/12\/z\/3a2a0.png)\n\nGreat fun, great fun, I am going to bed now :smile: \n","likes":1,"format":"md"},{"author_name":"Flying Dog Fish","author_uid":"1122902","time":"2020-10-14T23:05:17Z","epoch":1602716717,"modified":1602716717,"text":"An interesting concept of a game, but a bit too confusing for my taste.","likes":1,"format":"md"},{"author_name":"freeworld","author_uid":"1159547","time":"2020-10-26T15:12:41Z","epoch":1603725161,"modified":1603725161,"text":"So many concepts made it into this game :D I'm glad I don't live in this world, this was very hostile :P \nI'm impressed by the sheer number of things you managed to add - from the clones to berries within berries within berries!","likes":1,"format":"md"},{"author_name":"ElllaDee","author_uid":"1212431","time":"2020-10-26T17:09:06Z","epoch":1603732146,"modified":1603732146,"text":"Your game is cute, so I hope you'll get a score!

Also difficult. \ud83d\ude05 Was fun to try and get increasingly better scores. The zombie mechanic is a cool use of the theme. Graphics are sweet too, nice colours and lack of shading really works.

I never figured out the rules of mixing though.  \nOften got the radiation killed you message when I was busy mixing berries.
