Under rating threshold (hideshow)
I first saw this game in the Chrome web store and instantly fell in love with it. Once I found out it was on Kongregate, I decided to use my 10 Kreds on acquiring the upgraded version of this game. For a while it worked fine, but then it only let me have the Conway and Seeds cells in sandbox, made me redo the tutorial levels, and wouldn't let me change the skins for cells. This was the only reason I stopped playing for a long time. Then when I played it yesterday, the upgrade features were fine, then they broke again today. Can someone help me fix this?

It's kind of slow, it lacks a one-turn button, and an undo button. One misclick can ruin a lot when you're optimising. The instructions are also way too easy to accidentally click away. There's potential, but it's not the game for me.
I like the idea of a +1 button (perhaps that lets the game move one generation when you click play), and I found myself wanting that option (especially in defense mode). In the next update, I'll also adjust the timeout for the instructions so that it is harder to click past one. Thanks!

I went ahead and shortened the tutorial level (Training Level 1). You still have to complete it, but I've removed the some of the instructions on the controls (using the mini-map, and controlling speed and zoom). Let me know what you think.
Sorry to hear that the first level was too long: I could certainly let people skip that level if they wanted to. Level 1 is mainly a tutorial, so people know how to move the camera around, and how Conway's Game of Life works.
