Hello Universal Architects,

We are hard work with the next major expansion, The Beyond: Phase I. We are excited to share more gameplay and details about it soon. In the meantime, you can read about its progress here.


+ Fixed infinite stone geode bug.

Based on your feedback here in the comments we decided to greatly reduced the late game metabit bonus nerf that was introduce in 8.47. This re-tuning should bring back metabit yields for players with over 1 trillion research levels.

More specifically we introduce a nerf to the "mined bonus" because it was causing some super late game players to reach total entropy earned of over 1E60. Beyond this number the game started to suffer from precision errors in the way metabits are calculated. Note there is still a light nerf on the "mined bonus" over 1 trillion metabits earned. To compare in build 8.47 we reduced production increase per metabit earned by 1/100th. In the latest build 8.49 that reduction of boost is only 1/4th.

Thanks again for letting us know the tuning felt off.


In this current update (8.47), we've reworked a few internal issues of how the game has been handling numbers.

The game now displays numbers based on you regional settings!

Ex:
USA: 1,000,000,000.99
Russia: 1 000 000 000,99
German: 1.000.000.000,99

We know the Game Transfer system has been an issue for multiple players. With this latest update, we are hoping that this system will now work for everyone.

*Note: Game Transfer will be fully available once its updated across all devices (Android, IOS, Steam). Please wait to test this until the mobile updates are released next week. Thank you!

In the last update, we adjusted the prices for many of the main tree Entropy generators. This has made it easier to get late-game Mammal content.

However, in response to this adjustment, we've nerfed the "Mined Metabits" prestige bonus by a substantial amount. We will also be looking further into transferring the reduction of the "Mined Metabits" bonus into new Reality Engine nodes.

We've introduced an internal cleaning function in case your save file becomes corrupted! If you experience errors related to international currency or date format, this system will revert those stats.

Bonus: The T-Rex is selectable again in Mesozoic Valley! We also gave him back his crown.

Please let us know if you are experiencing any issues with this update in the comments. We appreciate your feedback!

Stay cellular,

Hi Cells Beta tester,

We are in the process of moving the game for a new version of Unity ( the game engine we use to create our game). This beta is to help us work out any bugs. Please let us know if you are experience any issue with your progress changing in unexpected ways.

Cultural correct number formatting.
The game now displays numbers based on you regional settings.

USA       1,000,000,000.99
Russia   1 000 000 000,99  
German 1.000.000.000,99

With this latest update we are hoping that Game Transfer system will work for everyone. Note you wait to update the game across all your devices ( iOS , Android ) So please wait to test until those mobile version have been updated next week.

Price and prestige boost changes.
In the last update we adjusted the prices of many of the main sim life generators. This will make it easier to get late game Mammal content. However we have also nurfed "Mined metabits" prestige bonus by a substantiation amount. We are planning to out side the reduction in mined bonus to new Reality engine nodes.

Fixing corrupted data in saves
We have introduced a internal save file cleaning function in case your save was corrupted due to errors in international currency and date format. If your game stats go out of the bounds of normal play the system will revert these stats.  



Please let us know if you are experiencing any issues with this beta in the comments.

Hello Universe Architects,

The simulation has been optimized!

We heard your concerns about recent developments in the game, so now we're coming at you with a light yet necessary patch. Here's what's in store...

After some reworking, we've successfully implemented a rapid click and hold buying feature. Save time (and your finger muscles) when buying more generators in the Main Simulation and Mesozoic Valley!



We've given Reality Engine nodes and icons a new array of colors. It's now easier than ever before to distinguish different types of Reality Engine upgrades!



Enjoy a more pocket-sized appearance, as well as improved recharge mechanics after you reboot your simulation! Let these little guys help rebuild your tree... I mean, who can say no to that face?



- Added new images and entries to the Story Journal.
- Fixed the increase in simulation acceleration not displaying in reboot panel.
- Fixed several minor bugs and issues.

- Nanobot buy mode now requires a Reality Engine unlock. The button for using the nanobot has been updated to make it easier to understand how to turn on buy mode.
- The normal tap hold speed has been reduced to 5 buys per second and then a new Reality Engine - Fast Tap and Hold unlock, that increase the hold buy speed to 11 per second.
- Story Journal illustrations and text updated
- Redesigned icons in the Reality Engine color of unlocked nodes more saturated.


As we continue development for more major patches, we thank you for your endless support!

We're excited to keep creating new content and to be providing you with the best scientific simulation possible.

Keep learning, and stay cellular!

Hello Universe Architects,

The simulation has been optimized! Our team has been busy polishing visual details and implementing improved QoL features.

While we're also balancing development for heavier content, we invite you to learn and take advantage of these new features to make your Cells experience even better!

We are testing some sorting methods, for example you can now sort by "value" which will optimize for the best price / production ratio. We have also added "Smart Buy" which will only buy rounded number amounts of Generators.

The Story journal has been added but is also in progress, we need to finish up the translations and the unlock oder might still be off.

Take a look let us know what you think in the comments. On in the beta channal on our discrod. https://discord.gg/BnSqDSV
