EDIT: I just realized that I broke the AI in Observation Mode when I changed something just before submission, so the squares are incredibly stupid and die off quickly. Oh well.

You are a square, and so is everyone else. You all start with the same stats, but if you can pick up some food before you die, you'll get to continue your legacy with boosted stats in the next generation. Live on and become the ultimate square!

I tested it in Firefox in Chrome.
