When I started, I did not understand anything and lost my first game with zero food.  But then I figured it out by experimenting, and on my second run I started gaining food faster than I used it.  I was able to run usually two \"teams\" at once, and maybe send out some extra monitors to scan more of the map.  It was an interesting design with some ways to interact between the types.\n\nI wonder what this game would be like with really polished controls like hotkeys and clear selection state that would allow for much more action-per-minute, and then threw more at me.\n\nCool entry!
