Is there a glitch with the dialog boxes?

For me the game just felt like there was a lack of feedback. Besides that, little glitch: if you lose the game once, you need to close and open the jar to try again

I couldn't seem to do anything...

I must agree with Datw, very little feedback. I couldn't figure out if researching or infecting was actually doing anything, and it took me three different tries and looking at the help image to figure out how to infect in the first place.

As others have said, the difficulty understanding the game is a pretty big hurtle. Remember, we've never seen this game before, so we have no idea how to play! That can be hard to keep in mind after you spent hours or days (or longer!) developing a game because everything seems obvious to you.

But the idea is definitely there, so with a little more polish and focus on playability, this could be a cool little game.

By the way, if you're looking for a better host than dropbox, you might consider the free Java hosting I offer at http://StaticVoidGames.com. Either way, happy coding!
