Hi everyone! We want to announce that Cell to Singularity is officially launching on iOS on Thursday, August 29th! The game has been available on Android for some time, but now we are finally bringing it to Apple devices.

While cross-platform saves will not be available (yet) between your Steam version of the game and the version on iOS, users playing on iOS will be able to take the game anywhere with them, watch ads to gain extra currency, and take and share screenshots of the game on social media.

Thank you to everyone for your support as we continue to expand. We have new updates and content coming soon for all platforms, and we can't wait to share them with you!

After months of work we finally have the dinosaurs evolution branch ready for public beta testing!

For this release we're experimenting with a brand new set of game mechanics, as well as a new art direction. We're testing it on a standalone web version for now, which means your main save will not be affected.

In the main game, this will be another branch coming off of the evolutionary tree, but for testing purposes right now it's disconnected. If you try the beta, please put your feedback here, on our Discord, or in our subreddit.

Thanks for all your patience- we still have a lot of work to do before this branch is ready to move into the main game, but we'll be updating this link regularly until official release.

Hi everyone! We know it's been a while since we've released an update letting you all know what's been up in Developer Land, and we just wanted to take some time to explain what we've been up to for the last few months.

As a lot of you already know, we initially said that we would be releasing the dinosaur expansion a few months ago. Obviously, we're waaaaay behind schedule with that. Essentially, we wrote the whole dinosaur branch of the evolutionary tree, worked up the graphics, got the gameplay running, and went to the first round of beta testing...

... And realized pretty quickly that something just wasn't quite working.

We had to go back to the drawing board and change a lot of things around. We completely re-did the graphics, moved some things around, and changed the gameplay to be in a different style that will build on the existing evolutionary tree while keeping things fresh and non-repetitive. It's been a long process, and we've been working really hard to get everything just right while also having to take time-outs to do bug fixes, work on adding/improving save functions, and other general housekeeping.

But despite the setbacks, we're finally getting to a point where the dinosaurs are nearly ready to be released into the world, like at the end of the latest Jurassic Park (seriously, who thought it was a good idea to just let them out like that? That's how you get a velociraptor eating your pet chihuahua). We're hoping to release them in beta testing to a small group of people by the end of next week, and hopefully once we can get them through a few rounds of testing and made some adjustments, they'll be ready to play.

We're really grateful to everyone who has continued to play the game while we've had to take a bit longer than usual to put this all together. You guys help us to make the game better, and obviously, we couldn't do it without you. Thanks for playing Cells, and we're really excited to introduce you to the dinosaurs!

Check out this sneak peek of what our lizard friends are going to look like. We think you're gonna like it.
