Cell Cycle

For https://itch.io/jam/bevy-jam-5

Status:

Just missed the jam deadline (RUST_FLAGS that worked locally but not on github), but that is ok, I'm not supper happy with my progress (so far).

Elements that work:

• Animated curves with 4d noise, to act as cell place holders
• mRNA codon chart can be used to create codons which are then transformable into proteins (text only for now :( ))
• 3d text around the 3dSprite chart

I'll probably continue because I learned a lot about biology, and I would like to eventually add multi player and try to make something that is fun to play..

Example:

1. Use the keyboard to press the start sequence 'aug'
2.  Then type what ever triplets (codons) you want 
3. Followed by one of the stop condons 'uaa', 'uag', 'uga'
4. The mRNA codons you use will be logged to the screen

( what a game loop :) )

Inspiration:

In the game of "real life", DNA strands are split and then transformed to mRNA, then via rRNA and tRNA, proteins are made from the mRNA codon sequences..
