Thalassopocalypse

I think there’s a good chance for the FG to end in february, though you most certainly don’t have to keep the tempo if you don’t feel well.

Won’t there eventually (if not already) be/are more important things to improve upon?

Mutation uno: Improve “fat” reserves for sporelings

Mutation dos: Spores that attach to nearby walking creatures that ate it only being made to stick to anything just walking over the moss, before they drop off some time later when the adhesive structure losses strength allowing the moss to start growing there to start a new patch of moss.

Hydrobryum/Cha: Improve “fat” reserves for sporeling. Spores that attach to nearby walking creatures that eat it are only made to stick to anything just walking over the moss, before they drop off some time later when the adhesive structure loses strength allowing the moss to start growing there to start a new patch of moss.

Some changes to the biosphere have been detected. As Mesogastra and Radiodontadraco get more complex their numbers drop, the ferns have begun to seriously increase their defense against herbivores which could cause a die out in the semi aquatic and land ecosystems. The population of the animals still maintains an equilibrium but that may change soon.

The sun sets on the strange world, the ecosystems of the flooded planet slowly stabilize as the effects of the grand apocalypse that brought the end of the kingdom of Earth slowly dissipate. However, at the depths of the oceans will soon bring a new challenge for the new conquerors.

(Sorry, that took a bit.)
