This game is ridiculously fun for such a simple concept. Essentially, you are a cell, and your goal is to become the biggest cell (usually

). To do so, you eat cells which are smaller than you. Some cells are inanimate "food" cells, others are player controlled and trying to do the same thing. You can split in half, bigger cells move slower, and there are viruses which will explode you if you run into them.

My friend and I are also coding an AI to play the game at http://twitch.tv/birdietelevision and http://twitch.tv/apostolique if anyone is interested in watching

The hype surrounding this game is just crazy. At some point it reached >100'000 concurrent players o_O

I've been the biggest for a time. It's tough to be King.

If you have two people working together you can be hyperaggressive and then feed your smaller blobs to them to stop yourself being vulnerable. Then they get hyperaggressive, oversplit and feed back to you. It lets you work together, feed constantly and still be big enough to keep predators away.

Managed to reach #1 on the list for a time. It was a server where one guy had been like 4 times as big as anyone else since I joined the game. But I found him at the right time and managed to eat most of him. It didn't last very long though, tried to protect my weak part and then I got virused.

I never felt so invested into a circle in my life. Has a lot of East Asian players surprisingly.

Meh, played the game the first day after it was created (when the creator just added a top 5 leaderboard) and it was extremely fun. Unfortunately, he eventually overdid it and now it's not really fun anymore. Well, some screenshot of my finishes:

After they added special cells:

PS: My cells seem to have a theme but interestingly, I just wanted to win the game with every special one.

(I even have this garbage.)
