What a great idea!
I managed to play through the game

On first try:
[+] Fun and original idea
[+] Graphics are well suited for the game
[+] The sound effects are amusing

[-] A little hard to understand what is going on
[-] Little more visual / audio feedback would make the gameplay feel more responsive
* I only noticed been told off-o-meter later on, it could be a little more visible
* Perhaps some visual indicator near the player when you get told off
* It wasn't clear to me when I was coughing / touching / sneezing since the keys didn't always work
* When does a person get sick? Felt random to me.
* Do the clowns have purpose?
[-] Sometimes the "Staff" tell me off me even when they're quite far?
* This seems to happen when I'm "above" them

On another try:
[+] Sound effects still amusing, but the looping "music" is having a Banana Phone-like effect on me... (

[+] I feel overjoyed seeing my enemies fall down one by one
[+] Small pox was a nice change of pace

[-] Still some feedback issues
* I feel like the best way to play is mash all buttons and avoid the Staff
[-] The sounds feel random
[-] The clowns / arcade cabinets are a bit misleading
* They don't affect the game but are on the foreground on
an equal footing with gameplay-affecting objects

I had fun!

Great Fun! :D I like the sneezing on people and touching them and their reactions are great :D

There's something quite cathartic infecting other kids.
Clowns are creepy.
