I love this game! The only thing that could make it any better is a multiplayer mode! Can't you imagine it? Different colored cells fighting to grow the largest? There could be a time limit or who ever dies last!

I love the art style and the music. As others pointed out, the only thing I have a problem with is replayability. It keeps you busy for 5-10 minutes (or 2-3 goes), but afterwards there is no incentive to keep playing.

I would like to see a mode where the neurons we grow get slotted into a brain, or something similar, so we could see what neurons there are to grow.

the game itself is really enjoyable, the artwork is simple, but nevertheless, nice, thge music kinda give us a ritmyn to work faster, like working out in the gym with such music playing, I'd also like to recomend such thing like achievs, unlocable contents, or some new themes like growing veins instead of nerves or muscle fibers, also, add some random moving proteins to bonus points

If I were to give this a cheesy marketing name I'd call it "Edutainment". It's very fun to play, with a valid, biological reasoning behind it, and it makes a compelling game. With some additions as suggested (such as medals for completing certain types of cell growths on purpose) would make the replayability through the roof. Education isn't always static and boring!

Hmm. I keep dying when my range suddenly accelerates despite me clicking on a node that is still in range. Am I missing something?

Btw what does the red neuron symbolize? I thought all cells and nerves work together to form tissues and stuff. Just saying.

very fun and addictive. I do agree that as you grow new nerve cells you should get some bonuses. very fun game to anyone who likes click based, speed based, intriguing. good game!

I'd like to see multiplayer version of this. Something like race, or the thing with red cells growing. That would be hell fun

This is brilliant. Fun AND educational! At first, I was thinking..."Hmm, what's this about then?" Then I played it. I enjoyed the challenge to it! And then, to top it off, links to wiki pages about the science! Fantastic all around!

A typical neuron possesses a cell body (often called the soma), dendrites, and an axon. Dendrites are thin structures that arise from the cell body, often extending for hundreds of micrometres and branching multiple times, giving rise to a complex "dendritic tree". An axon is a special cellular extension that arises from the cell body at a site called the axon hillock and travels for a distance, as far as 1 m in humans or even more in other species. The cell body of a neuron frequently gives rise to multiple dendrites, but never to more than one axon, although the axon may branch hundreds of times before it terminates.

"Oh, I wonder what this game is about. Hmmm, nice graphics, nice gameplay...oh I died. What kind of cell am I??? Wait...this game is educational...ahhhhh, ExploreWellcome, you tricked me!"

Did anybody noticed that if you keep playing like for 3 minutes and stop, your view starts to go UP and you must move your eyes down, otherwise your view will keep going up, lol :O ? It's like an illusion.

It's fun, but it lacks depth. There's a strong element of chance in the game, and it only takes one moment of bad luck to finish you off. So when you're playing you rarely feel like you're in control, rather you're just clicking madly until the game decides to finish you off.

Good concept! I would suggest touching proteins instead of clicking on them as the way to connect. More of a flow and less RSI I suppose:)

Pisspoor. You can be insanely inaccurate and still connect a neuron, and the "enemy" they give you doesn't make the game any more interesting or fun, just aggravating. It's absolute garbage that I can get a huge boost and progress speedily afterwards, yet the red neuron catches up instantaneously. Not even the music is good. 1/5
