The indie boomer shooter scene is exploding, actually

I had this really strange game called Seventh Cross Evolution. It wasn’t really a good game, but I loved it.

You started out as a tiny amoeba, and ate food to gain evolution points. You’d then use those points to add colors to a grid, I think you had six colors. The arrangement of those colors in the grid would unlock new body parts, like tentacle legs, or human arms, or a shark head.

It was super weird and clunky, but I loved it as a kid. I would spend hours just making pictures and seeing what I’d get. Might have to revisit that one soon, could make a fun stream game.

Yep, that was it. Makes me feel a little bit better that every comment under it is calling it out though, thanks for the follow-up.

My favorite example of this so far, the top rated comment on a post about players making a one million science per hour factory in factorio:

Factorio is proprietary software, Mindustry is not

Lemmy is so negative, it even hates Factorio.

Chex Quest is actually very well-known in the classic Doom community. It’s way better than it has any right to be lol.
