Cell to Singularity - Evolution Never Ends News

Hello Universe Architects,

Catastrophe is upon us... and it's going to be so much fun!



[h2]The Life After Apocalypse Exploration is almost here![/h2]

For a limited time only, get ready to:
- Learn about the 5 mass extinction events that wiped out so many different species.
- Watch Earth go through dramatic changes in the Exploration Garden!
- Earn Logits to redeem new and returning prizes in the Logit Store!

What caused each mass extinction that our world has already endured? And based on what we know, do we harness the power to predict or even avoid a future apocalypse?

[h3]Put these questions to the test on September 14th at 12:00 PM EST![/h3]

Stay alert! More information about the Life After Apocalypse limited-time event will be headed your way in the coming weeks.

Never thought we'd say this, but... who's excited for the end of the world?? ːsteamthumbsupː

Stay cellular,

Hello Beta Testers,

An exploratory update is coming to the Primary Simulation and Logit Store! We need the help of our beta-enrolled Universe Architects to try out these new additions and improvements.

[h3]Features to Test:[/h3]
- Exploration Gateway added to the tree
- Redeem up to 5 new Logit Store items!
- Find a new secret achievement that can only be obtained through a Logit Store item!
- Check out the new Exploration Hub on the Primary Simulation tree!
- Fix: Players having issues being able to advance past Hadean Earth!
- Fix: Several minor bugs.

Our team is really excited about expanding item options in the Logit Store! We're hoping to take Logit items to the next level for upcoming Exploration premieres.

We always value your feedback to help improve the simulation before it's released to every Universe Architect. Please share your experience with us in the comments, and we look forward to reading them all!

[h3]How to test the beta[/h3]
Right click on the game in steam, and select the properties and choose betas. Then select the BETA channel.

Hello Universe Architects,

Thanks to all of your support, Explorations have found their footing. Get ready to explore more as we continue development for future Explorations!



[h2]What are Explorations?[/h2]

As we all know, Cell To Singularity focuses on evolution of life on Earth. Turns out that covers a lot of ground! We've gotten so many great suggestions about unrepresented topics to introduce, but the Primary Simulation has reached critical levels.

Cramming in too much information is potentially hazardous for everyone's progress, so the Cells Team has been utilizing limited-time events, also known as... Explorations!

Explorations provide a new way to play while learning about unique topics related to science, history, technology, and beyond! And at a significantly smaller risk than if the content were permanently added to the Primary Simulation.

Pictured below is our planned rotation of Explorations! An average Exploration runs for about a week, then the next Exploration becomes available two weeks after.



For any questions about the Exploration schedule, please let us know in the comments!

[h2]Premiere vs. Rerun[/h2]

Once a new Exploration is fully developed, it will premiere for its first release (yay)! Then about a week after it comes to the simulation, the Exploration will no longer be available to play. However, that doesn't mean it won't be back! That's where reruns come in.

Each Exploration will return to the simulation based on the schedule above. We hope you enjoy the Exploration medley we're concocting as we also pepper in premiere Explorations!

[h2]About the Logit Store[/h2]

It hasn't been long since Logits have entered the simulation!

Logits are an Exploration-exclusive currency. Instead of obtaining Darwinium, you now earn Logits when completing Exploration missions! The more Logits you get, the more you can customize your simulation and make it the way you envision. But, how?



Logits are traded for main game cosmetics or Artifacts. Artifacts come in the form of trophies, generators, or even small branches. They provide valuable boosts to the Primary Simulation, Beyond Simulation or Mesozoic Valley- like the generators and traits we all know and love!

Want to add fungi to the Primary Tree? Purchase the Fungi Artifact in the Logit Store! Want Archie to look like he's going to the beach? Dress him up in the Logit Store!



Let us know if you also have any questions regarding Logits and the Logit Store!

In the meantime, we'll be going back to our Exploration roots. Are you ready to collect everything?

[h2]Kicking things off with a rerun of Unfold The Universe![/h2]



[h3]From July 26th to August 1st at 12:00 PM EST, blast back into space with the James Webb Space Telescope. [/h3]

[h2]What's New?[/h2]
- Move over, Darwinium! Earn up to 50 Logits by completing Exploration missions!
- Stargaze at the first ever James Webb Space Telescope image as the updated icon for 'First Images'.
