i mentioned this in a different post, but while playing 0.2.4, i encountered a loophole where you can skip the entire challenge of the game. you start a game, then you save it. then you go to the main menu, then click on the icon of a pencil, where you go straight to the editor, with your saved creature and 100 mutation points. you then finish it and go into your world, save it, exit to main menu, then repeat until you have an over powered microbe with insane health and a basket to trap particle emitters and gain unlimited resources. this ruins the challenge of the game.

what about gravity and density of the planet? the "water" may not actually be the same material as water on earth. perhaps the oceans are of a thick, slow fluid like jello when it is liquid, and is not done solidifying in the refrigerator, or a syrup like liquid, or something less dense and lighter than water, such as a vegetable oil like substance? that would make it easier or harder to make floating cities, and how big is the planet? if it is about earths size, it would be similar to conditions here, and very different if the planet is Jupiter sized, where you would need strong, lightweight organisms to power through the oceans, or on a planet like the moon Europa, organisms would be lithe like a seal, and able to glide through the waters effortlessly. and last of all, temperature. even an all liquid world could have polar regions where the oceans are solidified. if the "ice" is thick enough, maybe organisms could settle there, in a city looking something like a research base in the arctic or antarctic, super - insulated and made to house a warm, humid environment (the poles are actually frozen deserts). or perhaps a huge bubble-like covering over a city that transforms the entire inside of the bubble into a habitable, pleasant area, where your organisms can live in comfort. what about the polar idea, instead of a floating city?

you know, i was playing this game for a couple hours, trying not to die, but just couldn't make it more than a couple minutes, until i came across a glitch where you save, go to main menu, click the pencil, use the creator, go into game, and repeat until i had a huge box to trap molecules in and get unlimited resources. anyways, i found a glitch that ruins the challenge of the game. anybody have any legitimate strategies?

question for the developers, will the microbe stage's look change at all, because in the game's promotional video i saw something that looked like a very realistic cell, and not a organism made of hexagonal organelles.

and about growing animals, they could grow a little bit, or very slowly, or when they are not in sight of your creature.

another question is that because you play on an alien planet, the definition of life is different from earth in some ways. the creatures on an alien world would not have evolved like us, and some creatures would be unidentifiable. for example, some creatures would leave us wondering, is it a plant or animal, and if animal, reptilian, avian, or mammalian?

so, if the game ever did get finished, would the download be just like the downloads for the microbe stage now, or different in some way?

about burrowing to escape predators, i think it would make sense to have an animation to have your creature burrow and disappear into the ground, but it actually makes you invisible to any hostile creatures.

if the game makes it onto steam, would it have a workshop, because that would make downloading mods something that anybody could easily work with.
