nice! on theme, I like it. cute characters :D
There are some inevitable deaths! but it's literally funny
I enjoyed traveling down the body, the one issue I had was that you needed to hold the arrow when you were against the wall to leave it.
Nicely done. Feels like sometimes in a narrow area there's no way to avoid the enzymes. Really enjoyed the graphics of this one
This was a lot of fun, the art style fit well with the game, the only thing I noticed was you could still move when you ran out of health and the download link lists windows but is actually a web based game so could probably be run on any platform.
nice game, i want it on my phone :smile:
Fun little game! Some sound effects for killing enemies and getting hit would really improve the feel of it.
it't a nice game xD, but feels like the other thing going up no your down, and if i mute the sound, the game over sound stile play
@wikers yeah there are a few glitches with muting the sound but I did not have time to fix it.
Thanks for taking the time to play and comment!
Relaxing music. Liked the little characters. Would be nice to have health pickups once in a while. Want to keep playing longer.
@pillitoka I had them ready but I did not have time to add it to the game :/
Thanks for taking the time to play nd share your thoughts!
@kr4sh3 Thanks for the suggestion!
Great game, would love it to use the sword that the player carrys to attack the enemies(mabye like special sword swing ability with a cool down timer). Cute graphics and nice music too. Overall fun game, fits the theme well.
This game got a chuckle out of me since I recently got a case of staph infection earlier this year. The only feedback I have is that I like the menu music more than the actually game music but thats just personal preference. Well done overall!
@nithman Thanks for the suggestion!
Very funny to see the pizza and other food in the stomach! Would have been nice if the player was a bit animated from time to time (not just when dying). Also sometimes, I thought that the collision detection was a bit unfair. I really liked the game. Thanks for the experience.
Good idea of being swallowed into the body. Nice graphics, however took me some time to control it correctly.
@zerohbeat Thanks for your review. I'll definitely look into those two.
Really like it, and our character is sooo cute :p
Great feeling game and lovely aesthetic, i would have loved a mechanic that makes you want to kill bacteria more than just score. Some danger and suspense.
Simple game, but I think it fits the idea perfectly!! Why do you lose 2 lives every time you touch an enzyme? It is kind of weird that nothing else takes 1 live out (or at least I haven't seen it xD)
Simple but fun game. However swallowing pizza and donuts as a whole does not seem healthy :grin:
I really liked this! It actually felt like an adventure. I recommend adding a way to heal health, and also spawn enemies instead of moving them to the bottom :P But I made it to level 8, good game!
@adonisdevs Thanks for the recommendations! Could you elaborate on what you mean by spawning enemies?
Cool game, I like that it's simple and clean, runs really nicely. I'm glad the pizza in the stomach wasn't all chewed up and nasty hahaha!
This plays very smooth! Also I like your music choice? or did you make that?
@alphazeba The music was made by Patrick de Arteaga and it is free to use with attribution
@sanjana sweet, ill have to check it out it was good
This was a really good concept. I liked seeing the depiction of the clogged arteries with the junk food. Some things I wanted to see in gameplay though were to have each enemy maybe move or even attack differently. You have a lot of different designs for enemies which is awesome, but in the current state, I feel like I've seen all the game has to offer around level 1 or 2 since there's no change in gameplay. Maybe you can add like an enemy that shoots a slow projectile, or maybe an enemy with a shield of some sort to add more variety. All in all, I think you have the foundations for something really fun, and I hope you choose to expand upon it further!
@legavroche I've been working on adding power ups and boosts for the pill, and changing the enzymes into different enemies for each level I did not have time to finish them for the jam but I will be releasing all these features and more in the commercial version soon.
Thanks for your suggestions!
I think the scope is really important, this was a good jam game premise because it wasn't overly complicated. Character moves with arrow keys, other stuff moves north. Your art was great. The junk food in the artery is a nice touch. Super cool to see someone still working on a project after the jam.
I think that it's wonderful that you participated in Ludum Dare and brought your perspective as biologists to the table and I hope it won't be the last game you develop! I was a little bit confused at first because I was more inclined to pick up the yellow half-circles because they had such cute faces! If you're curious how things went for me, here's the video with my playthrough: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z2FekepgpMs
Great game! I liked the character, was a bit hard controlling him with mouse but I get that its for the mobile :) Good job!
Very cool game. I had a lot of fun playing this game. The art is nice and neat.
@sypdev it works better when using the arrow keys while playing on a PC
@philstrahl Thank you for playing my game!
The graphics are very good but the sound is a little loud but still enjoyed, good job!!!
