I wanted to make something with an incremental / generational aspect and the small world theme kinda lends itself to microbes and so Amoebros were born. This is the kind of game that only really comes together right at the end so I wasn't even sure if the game was going to be any good until it was done. Hopefully someone will enjoy it ;)
The game features something like 20 different patterns and you can affect the look and colour of your creatures by selecting which ones to breed. I put in the odd wild mutation that looks totally different so players can pick a new look easier, it also shows which Amoebros express more varied traits as well.
The story is that you are a lab technician who is breeding stronger microbes for totally non-nefarious reasons.
* Can you make Amoebros strong enough to escape the lab?
* Gather DNA from yellow orbs and rival organisms
* Evolve and reach for the edge of the map!
* Zoom with the mouse wheel, scroll with the arrow keys.
* Carefully pick which Ameobro to breed for desired traits.
Tips:
* Focus on life, speed and eat first.
* Then focus on strength, agi and aggro.
* When you're ready go for the travel stat.
* Always select the strongest creature to breed from.
