Hello Universe Architects,

The simulation has been updated with a popularly requested mammal. Let's give a big, batty welcome to a new face joining the Main Tree...



Remember the Natural Selection Island competition in April? Players got to choose between six different animalia contestants, and the winner would be added to Cell To Singularity. The bat beat the capybara by a few coarse hairs in the final vote, and now it's finally its time to shine!


Fruit bats, also known as megabats, have officially joined the game! Unlock their trophy node in the new Chiroptera branch, and watch them fly around in the dense jungle of the Land Garden.




Those are some long fingers you have! New trait nodes- including Long Fingers -are now available on the Main Tree. Find the Chiroptera branch near its winged comrades and learn more about what makes bats so cool!




[h2]What's going on with the Beyond?[/h2]
While our team is continuing development on the Beyond, we're always welcoming new beta testers! Interested in joining? Here's how:

[h3]Step 1: Right click on 'Cell To Singularity' and select 'Properties'.[/h3]



[h3]Step 2: Go to the 'Betas' , and type the code "iwantbeyondnow" this will unlock the beyond testing branch[/h3]

If joining the beta isn't for you, we recommend following us on our socials and keeping an eye out for any expansion updates!

Our team is ripe with excitement over our new mammalian edition! In the spirit of Natural Selection Island; if you could add ANY animal to the game, which one would you choose?



Stay cellular, everyone!

Hey Cellular Cadets,

We are adding Bats to the primary simulation next week, and need to test the latest version 9.36 for any bugs.

Specifically we want to make sure nothing is messed up in the Mesozoic valley. As we are programming the Beyond Solar system expansion a lot of the new game code is connected to the Mesozoic valley. We have been testing all week and the build looks good to use, however we just want be extra careful nothing it broken in the Valley, before we push this update to the public.

What to test in the beta?
+ Try to unlock the Bat in the mammal tree.
+ See if you can find the bat in the land garden
+ Check that you game looks normal in the Mesozoic Valley.

Note: If you are already testing the "beyond beta" you can stay on the Beyond beta and test these items from that beta. Both the public beta and beyond have the same codebase, however you can't access the beyond in the public beta. Hope that's not to confusing.

[h3]How to help test the Bat beta[/h3]
Right click on Cell to Singularity select properties. Choose "beta - public beta" tab then switch your setting to Beta. Note this is not the beyond beta.



Thanks again for your help, if the build looks solid we will roll it out to all players nearly next week.

Hey Cells Testers,

We have a new beyond beta update, Achievements have been add to this patch. We also need to reset beyond progress to test out new economy tuning. Sorry about the constant reseting of progress, this should be one of the last time we need to do that.

As alway thank you for helping us test. Leave any feedback in the comments.

Hi Cells Testers,

We received lots of feedback over the weekend. This patch addresses most of those issues that players encountered. We did discover a major progression blocker, along with a bug causing tapping power to become overpowered. Due to these two bugs we unfortunately needed to reset progress again for beta. We apologize for the lost progress during the beta.

Patch notes 9.20
- Dinosaur mutagen bug not being able to collect fixed.
- Fixed: Progression blockers
- Updated top mission UI.
-Translations Implemented (WIP)
- Tapping on top mission UI will center on related generator.
- Ambient Music system
- Planet specific music plays on unlock and rank up.
- Rank up sound effect
- Photo mission has icon and translation.
- Tapping Power Balance Changes
- Tree background reveal as you unlock nodes
- Capped final Rank at 17


Please leave any found bugs and feedback in the comment.
