Hi, thank you very much for playing and your kind comment! :) I agree that the game is too cryptic and I will add more explanation to the next version. At the moment, there is no win condition. For now, I intended to let the player collect as many points / turns as possible but I think they need more agency to make it more rewarding. 

Hi, thank you for playing and commenting! I was too much in a rush at the end, but I should have added more explanation to the game. The idea behind the temperature was that it starts to cause extra damage to the bacteria if their optimal temperature is too far away from the water temperature. 

Thank you for taking the time to play and comment! For the next upload, I will add a manual and check the temperature events. The rotating arrows were supposed to represent a "recycle" symbol. The idea was that every time a bacterium dies, it releases a few nutrients back to the water. But I can understand that this was not intuitive at all :D
