You've got to be quite old to remember the arrival of Osmos on iPhone and iPads. Well maybe not that old, but it's been seven years since it graced our small screens.

In Osmos, you guide a micro-organism (or "Bubble" if you prefer the more technical term) that you help grow by eating other organisms. It's like that best level in Spore, the introduction stage.

Well as of last week, Osmos is no longer in danger of going away with iOS 11 if the rumors are true. Indeed, just like Fieldrunners, the game's been updated with 64bit support and some new bells and whistles like background matchmaking.

While it's sad that we'll eventually lose a great part of the App Store heritage with the upcoming move to 64Bit only, it shows how some developers are really dedicated to the platform and I can't thank them enough.
