Nice game.
I found that there's no penalty for spamming click to move the cells :O

Nice job! I found it hard to coordinate when to click. I was a little confused on how that worked, but I figured it out. I like the story you have behind the game, but the game itself wasn't that fun. To be honest, you play the game for the story (but I liked the story a lot!). Nice job!

It is hard to keep the beat even when I'm 100% sure I did it right.

i really liked this game. i'll try and play it to completion when i'm more awake.
a lot of times you seem to simply win by outnumbering the dangers.

This game is amazing. It's like a really fast turn based strategy game.
I do not recommend letting the cells go out of control though haha.
The detail with how the cells squish together was really nice

The idea of it is interesting but sometime it is very hard to follow the beat (I don't know if it is the game or just me very bad at rhythm). It was a bit confusing in the beginning to find out what to do but once I got the hang out it, I had fun. Nice game, well done!.

Cool job dude. I especially liked how having a bunch of bacteria meant you had to control them in separate bursts when they couldn't all fit in the circle.

I absolutely loved this game. It's poetry with a visceral biological theme- I love it.

I was going to say I wanted a tutorial-- something really quick thats also really hand-holdy because at first I really didnt connect the rhythm mechanic with the circle around my mouse... but honestly I figured it out after maybe 30 seconds.

Excellent excellent work.
