Works best in Chrome because of JS engine speed, and obviously much better in Dartium if you happen to have it at hand.

Update: It seems the conversion from Dart to JS has hit the speed hard. I think a measure of it might be rendering related due to all the transparency. I'll see what tweaks I can do.

________

Take control of a bacterium just under the skin of a very sick human. Multiply and mutate your way to total system collapse!

If you can grow yourself a weapon, killing white blood cells is a great source of DNA, but be careful - killing them increases the immune response!

Starts slow and easy but gets much, much harder and more hectic as you progress. Consider searching for more plasmids instead of immediately levelling up.

________

Requires a WebGL capable browser (which is pretty much everything these days? Safari might need dev tools turning on.) You might also need to refresh the browser once if stuff doesn't load properly.

Written in Dart - the JS version is not thoroughly tested. One obvious issue is the Mitosis button DNA icon being missing for some reason.

________

Made by a team of four - with me programming, another doing art assets, and the other two providing concepts, writing and the title card.
