Could be better

If you added a tutorial for adding speed size and others it would be great (on an iPad btw)!

We need more!!! 🤩

This game has a lot I understand the rest of this stuff except for messaging but this game is pretty big and we need more to it it’s cool.

Idea

Can you guys add bacteriophages to the game

Has potential

With more updates I can see this game evolving to a very large one

I really like this game

To me I find this game interesting and fun to play, but I wish we had more to interact with like a fungus life span, immunity, maturity age, etc. To me this game has potential

I see a few bad reviews and I think that this app is great

It’s a great app and it’s really helpful for learning the basics of microbes

So good you have to make more games

Can you make a game about marine biology

Desperately needs a guide for clarity

I’m trained in microbiology, so I know what many of the words mean in the microbe’s creation ‘menu’. However, there really needs to be more clarity about what each section does.

For example, the category ‘Nutrient’: does selecting ‘Phototroph’ mean the microbe ‘feeds upon phototrophs’ or ‘the microbe is able to use ambient light as an energy source’? Having experimented with this and turning off the ambient light, the bugs divided just fine, making me assume it’s the first option. But it just isn’t clear, and if so, how do I design microbes that *are* dependent on light?

Also, there appears to be no functional difference between ‘toxin’, ‘destruction’ and ‘phagocytosis’ in the dish. Whichever you choose, the attacking microbe just bumps into the target microbe and the target disappears. I assumed toxins would be released into the dish at least?

I’d also like to be able to graphically understand the population change over time. I know this isn’t supposed to be a scientific tool, but understanding how attributes changed over time, as opposed to some Fortnite ‘last microbe standing’ in the dish seems to be essential to learning what you’re looking at.

I love the idea of this app, but it’s frustrating as designed. Simply too difficult to understand and meaningfully manipulate. It’s interest is fleeting and superficial at this point.

Amazing!

This App Is The Best! You Get To Create Your Own Microbes Or Put Up To 4 In A Sphere Amazing!

What?

I don’t even understand how this made it in the App Store. You can barely use it, minimal content, navigation is TERRIBLE. Like, why does it exist?! Can someone tell me?!
