Cell HD Demo v. 1.1

Against the "smart germs" of tomorrow's biowarfare, nanites will be our drone soldiers, but for how long? Enter the fluid living world of Cell (grown from "dynamic voxels") to live through the emergence of new life: YOU, a nanobot who shoots deadly colloids and monofilament clouds, builds defenses, pathways, and supercharged weapons, deciphers sinister enemy nanotech, and LEARNS. Tactics, strategy, then awareness drive you to save your patient, your host... your new home?

I didn't see an easy way to get to the demo from the game product page, so I'm posting this announcement.
Also I wanted to pass along a short introduction to the demo to let players know what to expect.
In the demo, players must spread "antibodies" (translucent white voxels) throughout a tube-shaped membrane. Once the membrane is teeming with antibodies, it can withstand the eruption of purple Growth a minute later.
You can get the demo here: Desura.com

I bought this for the voxels, I love voxels. I buy all games with voxels. Looks very nice and different kind of game.
your game makes no sense i shoot the membrane and i see white **** pop up everywhere but then the seed starts growing and i cant do anything about it then i lose at least it was a hour closer to the lock-in im going to wasting my time trying to beat the first level
Hi, 10243.
Sorry for the slow reply. If you lose the demo level once, you should get help text that says "fill the entire membrane with antibodies" (the "white ****"). If you do that, it's pretty hard to lose the level.
You might want to check out the new tutorial video we created. It's on YouTube now and has been submitted to Desura.
"Cell" is an experiment and not like many other games, but I think it makes sense if you invest the time to learn its mechanics.
It sure is a shame that people rate this down for silly problems, it truly is a great game.
Just got the game and it wont launch. Any ideas?
It was missing the XNA redistributable. It should install them now if you reinstall the game.
MIND....BLOWN....
Downloaded the demo, played it twice and am completely lost. Shoot the membrane and observe the effect? Didn't do anything. Then the seed starts growing far faster than I can deal with and I lose the level. I like the idea, but you need better explanations and a much less steep learning curve on the first level.
You shoot the membrane near the blue-white pulsing mass.
Those thing releases the anti-bodies.
Shooting the membrane help the released anti-bodies spread.
Just completed the game, I loved it. You guys did a great job. :D
