Microbial
My entry for the Jampley Game Jam! Theme was: Divide and Conquer.
Tutorial:
In Microbial, you build and fight with a deck of microorganisms.
Click and drag cards into the play area to use them, use the mouse wheel (while still dragging a card) to rotate the microbe you're placing. All cards cost a certain amount of energy (shown in the top right corner of the card) and energy is only gained during your "attack" phase (energy is shown below the petri dish animation). Once your attack phase is over, you'll attack the opponent player with the total power of all your remaining microbes on the board.
Once you've completed a battle, you'll be brought to the deck building phase. This is where you can mutate, split, and power up cards in your deck, as well as boost your energy output. IMPORTANT: you must leave some of your microbes in your petri, microbes left behind determine how much energy you gain each round - you don't want to have 0 energy do you?

I think I witnessed a bug where the AI will play any card no matter what it is.
they had two blueberries and used one to buff my paramecium.
also using meat on a tardigrade makes it into paramecium??
really fun and loads of replayability, a cool deck builder with a lot of options. I thought it was cool how you could use something for attack and defense, like throwing a small microbe in front of a big one to weaken it.
I wasn't able to get passed the second fight, if anyone knows a strategy to do it let me know.
try to get toxoplasmosis in your petri dish as soon as possible and invest all of your resources into multiplying the amount of toxoplasmosis in your petri dish. If you are lucky you will be getting multiple toxoplasmosis every turn from their passive effect which will allow you to wall every enemy type
