The game was really fun and smooth. The overall gameplay was really just satisfying. Not really difficult, no unwanted glitches, just satisfaction. I couldn't understand what was happening at first but still had fun playing it once I figured it out. Great game!

I made it to 1,285.  No bugs that I experienced.  The music is nice, as well as the sound effects.  I'm not clear on what I'm doing though.  Collecting the orbs seems to create new orbs - some of which are defense, some attack, both of which seem to die on contact.  I know you're working on it still, but I saw it and wanted to jump in and try it out.

But - from what I can tell... It's about getting the highest score you can, with level-up options at certain intervals(will you be making a display to show progress on that?).  Currently feels like a survivors-game/hungry shark/Spore cell stage.

Appreciate the feedback!

You're playing as a bacteria trying to multiply and survive for as long as possible before the immune system wipes you out.

You get an upgrade screen every 25 food/orbs you collect (I'll add a progress bar if I have time), and you multiply every 5 food of each type you collect, the amount depends on that types upgrade level
