Major Evolution 3 (update 0.6) is live now on Steam Early Access. It adds a new gameplay mode - Speed Runs!
Speed Run mode challenges you to beat the game as quickly as possible and lets you compare your record against friends. In order to eradicate the world quickly - you will have to explore radically different strategies to give an edge over the pesky humans. How quickly can you kill the world?
Will you be the quaranTIME* champion?!
The update also includes a number of fixes, tweaks and additions - see below for more. Steam should automatically download this update.
Next week - I will be going to the Game Developers Conference in San Francisco. Bad news is that this will mean the next Evolution will be a bit slower. (release the week of the 24th of March) Good news is that it will add the much requested Necroa Virus (inc. zombies).

Hotfix 0.6.1 released 10th March fixes an exploit that a few naughty people were using in Speed Runs and also fixes a save bug impacting DNA points. Thanks everyone who helped us track these issues down.
