I found out recently about this game thanks to [oliver lugg’s video](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AY7i8NqqkFA) and I instantly fell in love with the project. I always appreciate open source projects and I loved spore, even though like others I could not but resent it’s lack of depth and I’d love to see a game with a more realistic and scientific style. I have done some basic coding in C and python but it’s unlikely I will contribute by coding directly at least for a while since I don’t have much time. However if I find the time I would be keen on discussing practical and short term improvements to the game: balance changes, UI improvements, visuals and fleshing out short term ideas. ---
