Thank you for making it playable on web! The rules were a little confusing, however game play is very smooth and pleasing.

Didn't really understand the concept, but I imagine it'd be more fun online or with friends. Nice puzzle!

Hey! This is pretty neat! I really enjoy Go, so I'm always happy to try a board game experiment like this. I think this could translate pretty well to something physical, with low tiles and high walls running between pegs. Track health with dice maybe? One major difference between this and Go is that you really seem to suffer if you spread out your blobs. I like how cutting impacts enemy blob health and how dead areas actually block out the space, so the game tends towards a conclusion over time. I'd have to play a couple more times to really understand the strategies here, which is a good sign! Nice job!

Hey @ivn, I think I'm connected to you. Try clicking start to play! =)

@bradcode Thanks for playing! Let me know if you'd be up for a game sometime. I think the digital medium makes it easier for us to experiment with rules that require more book keeping, but a physical board could work! I've found that it is still important to spread out your blobs, but you just need to make sure your existing blobs have enough health to survive the expansion. =)

i realy like it, but i think it was cool if you have one single mode

Niiiiiiice. Too bad there's no AI, but I know it's not really that easy to make (it's actually extremely hard). :)

Keep up the good work.

Nice idea. But what if I am a loser and don't have a friend? I know that it would take some time but maybe you can try to write an AI component and then I believe the game is nearly publish ready...
