This is the bloodiest game I've ever played. Well done.
If I knew more about biology I'm sure I'd appreciate this game even more. That said, it was still pretty cool.
+1 to the bloodiest game comment
I have no idea what the red cell powers do... maybe playing more would teach me but it's hard to tell what effect I'm having.
Great job! Many thanks for letting me use the controller that's been gathering dust on my desk :P
Hi. I felt a bit lost, but then I guess that's the life of a blood cell... The powerup mechanism seemed to stop working part way through the second section, but maybe I missed something. Love the sound for your logo!
+2 bloodiest game ever. Not sure if this is supposed to happen but I was able to spawn a ton of viruses and it brought the game to a screeching halt, and then I appeared outside of the blood vessel. Either way, it was a fun game.
Powerups use "homeostasis bits" (points) as fuel. The game doesn't really tell you that, much. Still, as a general note: some glitchiness is intended.
Interesting concept but not too challenging or rewarding.
Had a hard time figuring out what I had to do. It's kind of weird, but I like it.
So my method of gaming was not forgiving here. I jumped in without reading anything and couldn't figure anything out at first, but with a little perseverance and experimenting I figured their powers out, I liked the white blood cells power the most. Interesting to say the least.
Never been good at Biology.. Didn't really get what I was doing, just flying around the blood stream.. which was bloody :p
I like the bacteria. Just reproduce and reproduce :D
Interesting idea that could probably actually be turned into an educational game with some more work. A bit hard to understand the mechanics though. A word of introduction or a tutorial might be needed.
I gave for 4 stars for innovation and theme!
a blood bath! part of the HTML overlays with the game..
Such a gory game.
Fun and different.
Don't really get the entire gameplay, but what the hey!
Mess110: Yup- fixed. Site definitely needs some cleanup/an update.
Oh and another fun fact- vessel speed and how long it takes to get back to the heart is based on heart rate (which changes) and human blood volume!
5 stars in humor for "Heart pounding soundtrack". Congratulations, you have pun.
bloodiest game is bloody.

I really liked the fact that you've created one system in which you can play all three entities, well done! The little comments by the different cells are cool too.
What would have helped would be some way of knowing if and when the level is going to end. Good work!
I like the feedback of the white blood cell/infectious best. Could use a sense of progress in each area (or I didn't get something).
As others I felt a little lost too :P Didn't get what I was supposed to do. Except flowing along with the other cells. I might be a bit slow.
The cell never knows what their purpose is.. they simply do as they are built to do. As such, "supposed" to do means little in the blood stream. (also I'm clearly making up stuff to cover for a lack of goals)
I was unable to run the linux version, sorry :(
I have python2-cssselect and python-cssselect installed.
./bloodbath: error while loading shared libraries: libnss3.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
This is the first 5 star humor rating I've given. I had no idea what I was doing but that didn't stop me from playing for way too long. Good job dude.
@josefnpat I didn't get the chance to test the linux versions, so has anyone else been able to run it? It looks like that library (libnss3.so) is one a couple distributions have in the Network Security Services, but not every distribution uses it (and since the game compiled via node-webkit, it still has a web based structure).
Cool idea, but the gameplay is not that engaging. Also, just for the record, a virus is not a cell ;)
@bentog ;) (thanks for playing!)
Bizarre.
Good job
I like the background art. It took me a bit to figure out how the powers worked, but once I did it was fun. There should be some incentive to keep the player playing. I like how I can play as three different cells.

@flannelvindicate: Cool, thanks!
