Gelluloid Domination

A fast-paced strategy game of fantasy biology. Start with a single fragile cell and expand across the network, assimilating rivals to grow your gel-powered army. Evolve mutations, unlock new abilities, and fight off deadly pathogens. Adapt and conquer, expand or be consumed. Every decision shapes the network — will you achieve total domination?

Intuitive yet Demanding:

This is a minimalist strategy game. You start with simple mechanics: transfer gel to assimilate cells and manage gel production, but when and where you act changes everything. Watch your opponents, time your moves, and adapt to their strategies. With a variety of cell types, network layouts, and upgrades, every match plays out differently. Experiment, strategize, and stay one step ahead.

Over 80 Hand Crafted Missions with Unique Goals:

All missions have been designed with pen and paper to offer a diverse set of challenges, requiring you to adapt and learn new strategies. Beyond classic domination, you’ll face:

• Survival Mode – Hold out against viral swarms.
• Reservoir Fill – Gather enough gel in a "tank" cell.
• Race Mode – Get to the target before your opponents.
• More unique objectives to challenge your tactical thinking.

Gel Technologies – Bio-engineer Your Arsenal:

Find DNA strands to mutate, evolve, and enhance your cells:

• Mutations: Transform your gel into deadly medusa, spike, or explosive forms. Mutate defensive turrets to shoot down incoming viruses.
• Evolutions: Passive boosts to production, speed, and efficiency.
• Nano-Boosts: Strategic “abilities” that shift the tide – slow opponents, disrupt production, or attract viruses to enemy cells.

Specialized Cells & Strategic Expansion:

Some cells offer key advantages, while others can leave you exposed—expand wisely to secure the best cells before your opponents do. Beyond the basic cell, you'll encounter a variety of specialized types:

• Attack, Defense, and Production cells – Boost transfer speed, reinforce defenses, or increase gel production.
• Carrier cells – Move freely, transporting gel to disconnected areas for flanking attacks.
• Link cells – Create new connections in the network.
• Vortex cells – Teleport gel instantly across the network.
• Cycle roads and other mechanics add even more strategic depth.

Fierce AI, Adjustable Difficulty Setting:

AI-controlled opponents fight to dominate the network just like you, with no unfair advantages – just pure strategy. Crank up the difficulty for a heart-pounding challenge.

Are challenges too hard? You can lower the simulation temperature to have an easier time, but the rewards will not be as good.

Advanced Tools for Hardcore Players:

Experience-enhancing functionality is available for power users, such as Continuous Send, Chain Linking and the Passive/Aggressive toggle. Cell information panels provide insight into the raw numbers driving the simulation.

Orbicorp Mission Statement

Below is the standard issue onboarding letter.

Welcome, doctor, to the Gelluloid Labs micro-life research program. We are Orbicorp, leaders in bio-tech and DNA disease analysis.

We study alien life forms to enhance our medical expertise with fascinating knowledge of new cellular behaviors.

Our vow is to not only heal the sick -- but go beyond that and super-charge biological functions in all humans, ensuring our race continues to dominate the known galaxies.

By injecting a special type of Gel under strict laboratory conditions, we are able to study how these extraordinary alien tissues work to endure the extreme, life-threatening conditions of the far away solar systems.

Our newest research produced the Green Gel, a new type of gel that can be controlled by hardware buttons and that can be seen through the microscope.

As a scientist, you are trained to complete these experiments. Your reward will be in the form of Research Points which you can spend developing new technologies in the Lab.

Thank you for reading this job description. Should you choose to apply for the position, your findings in Gelluloid Labs will lead to great advancements in human medicine and biological enhancements - sometime in the years to come.

A beautiful and serene Lab is made at your disposal by Orbicorp for free:

*

* For the duration of your experiments. Orbicorp may terminate your contract without prior notice, and have a new scientist move in. The Lab is expensive to run and we can't waste any time or money. Or both!

We sincerely admire your devotion. We can't wait to see your research, which will lead to human domination in the known galaxies.

The CEO of Orbicorp himself,

TAMN GHONTJEN JR.
