Excellent take on the theme! And the ads were spot on.

The most atmospheric game I've seen thus far, haha. Sound is especially fitting, but everything is nice. Well done!

I like the pc based Interface. But some animations are quite funnyXD Good gameXD

Kudos to whoever on the team created the green dancing alien. I actually greatly enjoyed that piece of spam. The game put a smile on my face, which, I think means it's a job well done. Great work!

dude this is great! Might be my favorite so far.

We made a game with a similar aesthetic, but different play style. You nailed the style wayyyyyy better than we did.

Great Job!

[Here is our game, check it out? :)](https://ldjam.com/events/ludum-dare/42/tcgd-antivirus-98)

This is amazing! I love the graphics

shredmer 2018-08-15 01:25

This game is hilarious and was fun for about the first two minutes. Then it starts to become a chore. I love the art and sounds tho. It's a great use of the theme and very creative haha

I have mixed feelings: Basically everything about this is awesome but it also made me super anxious

lavinski 2018-08-15 01:33

I want to cry. This game me anxiety! so Good!

Enjoyed this one. The different pop ups were very reminiscent of the Windows 95/98 error things. It was nice as well that there were a good amount of variance to them with different effects for some. Hatsune running round the screen was hilarious as hell. And what was up with that oyster pic lol.

Fits very well with the theme. Playing on easy didn't feel like I needed the additional items from the market to complete, but on Hard they were of great help. Solid entry.

Here is a clip of the playthrough we did on stream https://www.twitch.tv/videos/297555372

The art and audio were pretty solid, awesome work!

This was so late 90/early 2000s that I simply love it xDDD

Kind of reminds me of when I had to work in an office as IT xP

dave-grey 2018-08-16 13:01

Nailed it. This is too well done haha.

Yet another desktop simulator... but how nicely done! The ads are reminiscent of the early interwebz, and the malware effects are just plain awesome (especially Miku-chan). I also loved the "old computer" background noise.

mediyaz 2018-08-16 21:52

I love this! Wow computers were so whack backattack in them days

wendel-scardua 2018-08-17 03:57

The ads were great, sometimes I had to click them just to see what they did. But I got confused because one of the ads were in portuguese - I'm from Brazil and the game surely couldn't have detected that, so what gives?

team-infernus 2018-08-17 20:29

That was a lot of fun! It gave me a lot of nostalgia. I liked the addition of the background noise. It felt like it didn't get very difficult tho, I kind of expected it to amp up a lot quicker.

moonlightbomber 2018-08-19 05:56

Another game that feeds on computing nostalgia. Glad I didn't fall for those pop-up ads.

sam-machell 2018-08-20 21:45

hey really liked this game a lot! i thought the sound was especially great! really fun! dont have much else to say really O Y S T E R

agar3s 2018-08-20 22:56

I know that the idea is to keep cleaning the screen, but you made a lot of funny programs that I just wanted to watch them all. Good theme approach, It's pretty easy to play but is very entertaining.

(ノ・∀・)ノ -( BTW ) We also have an HTML5 entry if you want to play it and rate it.

kaiclavier 2018-08-24 01:55

Made my day to see the Yo Noid! 2 ad, haha. Reminds me of the good ol' days... so many pop-ups.

adrisj7 2018-08-24 03:26

Oyster

The ads made me laugh on multiple occasions, even after seeing the same ones again. They perfectly portray how over the top web ads were (and in some cases still are), and I loved it.

I also especially loved how clicking on the ads actually had effects, and I ended up clicking on some of them on purpose to discover their secret effects.

My only complaint is that the game on easy mode was a little bit long for me, if it were shorter that might make all that clicking feel a little more hectic!

But overall, this is a goldie!

toadietechnika 2018-08-27 02:04

My favorite ad was from Miku, so jolly to play more haha.
