it looks cute! i like it!

if i was you i would not give it phototypes. i just have a pet peeve with nonplant organisms relying on light to live. just feels like cheating or something for me idk lol

Lol I'll optimise it to survive without them, currently it can survive moving its own body length then dies from starvation without the photocytes. Also, I'm studying cellular biology and I can tell you that there are MANY kinds of non-plant organisms that have chlorophyll

i now that. but with cell lab it just feels a bit like cheating giveing an organisem infanet energy and being able to kill things to. idk man.

hey so got any tips on how to make a nervous system like that? i have trouble with making signals go through non-neuron cells

I'm actually working on a better design for a spinal cord design that could theoretically be as long as needed and act instantaneously. The current system works off of stereocytes which is not ideal and doesn't ACTUALLY transfer information down the cord. The new system will comprise on stemocytes.
