I was born in the late Holocene and I've seen some shit
My newest game- The Barnacle Goose Experiment - is an abiogensis body horror idle clicker where you play as a researcher locked in a biodome who is tasked with generating a working world out of their own body.
Music from Ben Babbitt, halina heron, Geotic, Adobo, Jún, Smokey Emery, Sadurn, Zac Traeger, SamanthaZero, and Eli Rainsberry on the in-game radio.

this is genuinely incredible. did you make it in some sort of engine, or just with javascript, or what? this is pretty close to some stuff my gf has worked on so i'd be really curious to find out more
this is GREAT news for my girlfriend's insane procgen expiriments, thank you.
i completely broke the game because for some reason destroying places quadrupled all of the items on the floor and i just gjkkjjfkd
my silly text-based idle game loving ass is loving this very much, it reminds me very much of a dark room
Tried playing it like I play clicker games usually and instantly died 9/9
i thought this was just gonna be a fun thing to play around with but it's been hours and i'm STILL doing stuff this is incredible
Is there an index function that I'm missing? Some way to keep track of the "recipes" you've discovered other than scrolling through the action log? This is extremely cool but I don't think I'll be able to finish it if there isn't a way to track that.
if you can't find it after a frustratingly long amount of time, try some stuff with paper.
Awesome, I've just gotten some paper & have been trying to find a use for it. I'm on the hunt 👀
Heck, this is so cool. The amount of info onscreen gets a little overwhelming but I'm glad it at least doesn't seem to penalize you for stepping away or being slow to respond. I found one ending, but I'm sure there's more to see!
I kept playing this game until I got a bee and could talk to it. Talking to your bee reduces time it takes to make honey, so much so that it makes honey every 01 seconds and it kind of breaks things in a fun way! Sitting on 2k honey as we speak!
This was cool as hell, I think I may have finished it? But I truly don't know lol
I made my resource generation too efficient and now my game keeps crashing lol
i am pushing some general changes and improvements today! check back in the evening. hopefully it helps
thank you, I will! Loving it so far, especially the thematic implications of what some of the item combos create.
"research assistant combined research assistant and paper. research assistant and paper made letter from conference."
he turned himself into a letter from conference, funniest shit i've ever seen
my research assistants kept prioritizing turning themselves into conference letters and eventually i started sequestering research assistants in paper-free environments
This is really neat! I felt so accomplished when I finally unlocked the radio.
wow! uh.... we have no workflow to bookmark this for ourselves across devices to come back to after work. maybe this comment will help? looks amazing
really great stuff. was looking for something to scratch this itch.
Seems like after the most recent update, making something for the first time reveals all the recipes to make it in the journal (including recipes that use items that you haven't discovered yet). Is this a bug?
Anyways, very fun. I'm on day 23, 109/146 items.
Beautiful little game. Amaterasu vibes.
really enjoying the game! minor bug ive found though is that media keys can produce unexpected effects if your keyboard has them - e.g. after exiting stargazing, i pushed the play/pause button and instead of doing what i expected (resuming a video i had in another tab) it made the stargazing music start up again
Incredible game! What does the number in the top right corner mean? I've been playing for a little while, but I'm still stumped by that
Hey Everest! I'm having trouble with a few things. I can't seem to listen to the kHz objects like the tooltip says? I also can't seem to drink the milk, though given its origins I would be worried to do so anyhow... am I missing something or are there bugs?
Hi! Both of these verbs require an object - keep playing a bit and I'm sure you'll find them.
Ack I came here hoping you hadn't replied/read this haha because yes I got both of the missing items just now. Oops! Thanks/sorry!
everest please. what's the recipe for the thing between shell and oil. ive been trying for two hours
