rl - 7th in "focus" (aa, uu, ff, au, rr, ao, rl, sp, th, ki, ci, sn, lo, ba, ov, sh, fi, do, ru & ti) Figure of 8 loop. Don't cause collisions. Just like other apps in our series, the more you get into each level, the more it changes. There are theoretically infinite ways you can complete each, it makes for great fun. You can also top the leaderboard and earn medals! (bronze, silver and gold). There's 150 levels to solve right now, intertwined with all sorts of tweaks and surprises. You can also go back and replay any level you've already passed, at any time (Choose Level). If you're stuck on a really tricky level, skip it! (Tap Skip on the Fail Screen) If you can't wait, unlock all 150 levels and replay at your own pace! (Choose Level > Unlock All Levels) Thanks for all your support, I hope you're enjoying the "focus" series thus far.

THE RIGHT TO EDUCATION Education is a human right in itself and is essential for realising other human rights. In meeting the right to education, every child and young person should have access to a free and equitable education system. Unfortunately, my experience as a science teacher in New Zealand, is that our schools are failing to provide a equitable education system for some children. This is especially true for Indigenous students, neurodivergent students and students struggling with their mental health. MY GOAL My goal for creating this app was to try and provide a fun way to help any student struggling with high school biology to achieve success. I wanted to see if learning through gaming will help re-ignite your passion for biology and give you the motivation to overcome any struggles you face with the subject. NO ADS OR IN-APP PURCHASES IN GAME Since education is a human right, access to education should be completely free. Therefore, this game will have no ads or in-app purchases. It will be completely free to download and play LEARN BIOLOGY CONCEPTS This game will teach you the core biology concepts of respiration. Try it out and see if you can learn high school biology playing games. I would love to hear from you, so please get in touch with any feedback or ideas to improve my games https://runthroughbio.com
