They stealing your eggplants! Shoot them and protect your vegetables. Bear in mind that all your actions (movement and shooting) getting you smaller. Eat blue rings to grow up. Your life-cycle runs along 15 seconds. When time is out you dividing in two amoebas. Then you need take heritage to one of them. Each generation of your childrens will degenerate. To avoid this, collect mutagenic pills, wich also make positive mutations. They looks as colored circles. This game has ending! Just playing) Good luck and enjoy!<\/p>","title":"Eggplant farm"}
