Post-jam Version

I decided to make a post-jam version of my game because I wasn't able to get a lot of my core ideas implemented in time for submission.

This is the same gameplay at heart, but with several tweaks and additions:

  • Highscore!
  • New "mitosis" currency that is used to buy cells.
  • Much better pathfinding and AI target selection.
  • Much cleaner difficulty curve with threat level display.
  • Many other minor balance changes and bug fixes.

The post-jam version is accessible on the same page as the jam version. There is now a menu on page load to select which version you want to play.
