Music, graphics, and education? Why can't they show us things like this game in school? It would make life so much more exciting!

What I really like about the menus is you can make music by moving your mouse back and forth over the buttons. It sounds really cool.

a red string SPAWNED right infront of me on the protein i was going to click on and i was on 60000 meters so my bubble died before i even had a chance to click on another one

I got just under 90,000 microns, got the hard badge and felt really awesome. The game told me I'd grown a granule cell so I clicked on the link to find out what that is. "Granule cells are the smallest cells found in the brain and are an extremely small type of neuron." Gee, thanks. Now I don't feel awesome at all.

i hate it when there only one protein in your circle of influence and right as you click on it the rival neuron steals it right out of your hands
this game is fun as crap though

Get this on mobile NOW! The mouse click interface is fine but I feel this is a game that would translate well to a tap based interface.

I really do love the game but i can't stand that sometimes a red appears on the only protein in view. That's pretty frusterating.

I played it before badges were added. And what?
75,000 Micrometer Neuron Built
[Best so far: 73405]
Oh, the irony! ;D

Erock, there already are highscores. Go to the Achievements tab then at the top of it it should say something like "View Highscores"

Hard badge is too hard. Too much luck involved. Ive been locked in by red blots the very instant i got out of a green or yellow boost.

The hard badge is definitely impossible when you're using a trackpad instead of an actual mouse. But that doesn't stop me from trying... my poor fingers.

Wow... this is one of those game where when it decides to kill you, you simply die. Cool idea, good music, but the 'ding-you're screwed now' random element is rather annoying.

It'd be nice if the red chains were actually competing rather than sacrificing themselves to sabotage. Also, there is a glitch where if a red appears next to a yellow, unless you're already in the yellow chain, the yellow turns white... but can still activate but doesn't yellow any other proteins.

First nerve I got:
The substantia nigra is a brain structure located in the mesencephalon (midbrain) that plays an important role in reward, addiction, and movement.
Figures.

Made it to 82,077 and it says I'm a Granule cell... which according to Wikipedia is the smallest cell... What was I before then? O_O

Somebody mind letting us know if there's a strategy to this more than "Click as far as you can, go for special nodes"? Also, screw the red nerves and their taking my only viable moves!
