Overview

Arrange cells. Build machines. Destroy enemies. Each cell on its own has a simple function, like moving or spawning other cells. But when combined, more interesting behavior emerges...

Story

Made for the GMTK Game Jam 2020 with the theme "Out of Control". In the game, you only set the initial conditions on the grid of cells. After pressing play, you can no longer control anything. Instead, a simulation unfolds, with each cell behaving based on its own set of rules.. The game is based on cellular automata like Conway's Game of Life. Atoms, molecules, cells - do they behave deterministically? And if they do, does combining them together change that? Also the cell based machines you make in this game can grow exponentially, literally becoming out of control.
