Keep hunting, and memorizing waste-to-gift relations look for more oxygen rich areas and hunt heavily there.

Develop cell a little in all areas.

Sadly, you currently can't use your chloroplast to see.

Instead, you go to hunt down some more cells. One tasty cell gets you 11 amino acids, 4 bits of glucose (Though you have to ferment one), and 2 chunks of fat and protein.

You use both of the protein, along two of the glucose, to improve your flagellum. You can swim a lot faster now, allowing you to hunt better as well.

You use a lot of your exess fat to increase in size, along with strengthening your cell membrane.



Wow. That's a bit distrubance.

OH NOES!!!! RUN!!!

EDIT: Investigate first though, could be many small organisms all near each other that we could benefit from. Just be prepared to run. Approach cautiously.

Make Golgi Body, then a peroxisome. No Free Radical poisoning for us.

It's known as the Oppai-Kaiju effect. The islands of Japan generate a sort anti-gravity field, which allows breasts to behave as if in microgravity. It's also what allows Godzilla and friends to become 50 stories tall, and lets ninjas run up the side of a skyscraper.

Also, hunt for glucose.

IRL, if I understand correctly, chloroplast actually make glucose, not energy. You need a mitochondria to make it to large amounts of energy.

Make a small harpoon like thing, similar to that cnidocytes have, but with a suction mechanism instead. That way you can eat from a distance without having to waste so much energy and time chasing things, as well as not having to go close to potentially dangerous things. It also doubles as a weapon.

Okay, wow.  You realise that non-Krebs cycle glucose metabolism is about twenty times less efficient, right?  You guys should probably look for a proto-mitochondrion before some other cell does if you want to be the Last Common Ancestor of all eukaryotic life.

Watching, I hardly understand any of this mumbo jumbo but it's fun to watch.

Two suggestions- Another membrane improvement, and let's use some amino acid to duplicate our DNA.  If we need some protein, grab it first.  If possible, put some mutations in the DNA to give us new tricks.

I can ony understand half of this. Still, I can understand some of it. From this wierd game that involved a meteor, genetic scientists and a plan to save a race by injecting a cell with DNA to evolve on a distant planet.  :-\

This will either A. Get infinitely more complex once we get to multicell or B. Get much easier to understand once we get to multicell

Cellcraft. I learned most of what I know from it too. The rest I learn on the fly. HH, We already ARE multicell. We mitosis-ed a while back.
