MiCROBE
SteamDestroy enemies. Collect Mass. Evolve. It starts simple, but gets out of hand fast.

Your primary resource is Mass, harvested from every enemy you consume. The bigger you get, the stranger and more dangerous your prey becomes. From cells to organisms, organisms to planets, planets to stars and stars to things that shouldn't exist.

With 300+ skill nodes arranged in an ever-growing organic tree, you choose how your microbe develops: aggressive, efficient, chaotic, or something in between. Mutations earned through boss kills persist forever, compounding across every prestige run.

What you'll get:
Alpha v0.4
