A nice game! A had a lot of fun with it. But is's very hard to understand. It took me forever to find out how to works. I think a tutorial or more informations about the gameplay is nessersary. But overall a very good game! Good job! :)

Game was fun to play, thanks! I'd change the right click to just a normal left click for infecting cells to just keep things simpler - but that's just my opinion. Good work :thumbsup:

A well-made game, with graphics, sound and music that fit just right. I'd need to play it a few more times to figure out some sort of strategy! Overall, one of the better games I've played for LD44 - well done.

Super cute game!! I loved the graphics and sound ^^ It was a little hard past the first level, but then again im not very good :,)

I laughed so hard in front of your game, well played guys !

Very cool game with actual depth. Great job!

Awesome take on the theme, and great gameplay.

I played through the whole first level before realizing that this game has an upgrade system! I tried playing again but I died pretty quickly because I spent too much on upgrades. Seems like you need a good balance between spreading and upgrading.

I really enjoyed the game. Loved the idea and the game mechanics. Well done.

You must work over this game again and maybe you can put it in googleplay for mobile. It have good potential and fun gameplay. I liked it. I can't spread everywhere but hearing blue viruses with funny sfx was fun! :D

fun game!! An original take on the theme!! It looks like you put a lot of effort into it. Congratulations on finishing!

Very impressive. I couldn't get past level 3, I thought I fully upgraded range, and it even launched viruses, but those viruses didn't clear the gap. I don't understand the virus selection, there's different looking viruses you can select but it's not clear what they do (and doesn't seem to include crossing that gap). I would probably tone down some of the sheer time involved, maybe smaller levels, especially early in the game. Took forever to complete the first level - I wanted to get as many upgrades as possible, not realizing they don't carry over, lol.

Very interesting idea. Lots of fun. It could use a description for the upgrade (I didn't catch what the message flashed on the screen said) and level skip though.

bar 2019-05-09 23:49

That last level is impossible, even with the yellow microbes. They just die in the bloodstream just like in your video. I tried that level way too many times.

@pyrian Thanks for the feedback, yes we planned to implement that upgrades carry over to the next level, but we ran out of time for that sadly. The different looking viruses are better in the upgrade line they appear in. So, for example, the yellow ones has a higher range than the normal viruses. We should have made that clearer, that's true.

@bar Yes, we should have added descriptions to the upgrades - time problems. :smile:

@pyrian @bar You are right about level 3. Totally forgot about fixing that for a post-jam version. I am terribly sorry. We uploaded a post-jam version to fix that, just now. But spoiler: it is the last level anyways. Thank you both for playing the game until that and trying to solve it. :thumbsup:

I enjoy the challenge that this game presents, making me think carefully about my next move. I think to add more challenge the antibodies should spawn and move faster.

The Title Image Looks Awesome! (That's an image that can intrigue players to try your game). Suggestion, adding few text tutorials would have been nice, I was a little confused at first. Overall, Great Job!

Team, Congrats on your jam :thumbsup:

I enjoy the challenge that this game offers, which makes me think carefully about my next move. But it was a bit long-winded. The levels in the begining could be a bit shorter. It was fun to play - great job!

Game was very fun to play, i liked overall graphics and atmosphere. Virus concept is great as well, GG!

The only downside is difficulty : first level is pretty easy when you get the good strategy but level is almost impossible i think (or maybe i didn't get it).

Congrats!

Really lovely!

jonathan-lorenz 2019-05-19 15:10

I liked the idea, however I would have prefered a turn based game for this. The graphics were ok and the sfx too. The music was nice and chill but does this really fit a game were you attack cells? Good work overall!
