COVID-19: The Beginning
How to play?
- WASD to move
- Left Mouse Click or Hold to shoot
- 'E' to enter/exit cells
You play as a nanobot doctor who enters virus-infected cells to heal them
However, the treatment isn't as easy as it seems – the viruses have mutated and can now fight back
Inside the pills are useful vitamins that improve your abilities and make you stronger. By breaking the pill and consuming the vitamins, the nanobot will gain the experience that is needed to level up. Experience can also be gained by killing enemies. After reaching the required amount of experience, you can choose an upgrade, but choose wisely - the wrong choice can lead to a quick defeat
Don't relax – the viruses are rapidly moving from cell to cell, destroying them! Luckily, you have a built-in locator that tracks the enemies. The arrow will point you in the direction you need to go, so hurry!
Virus Invader:
Small and fast, these enemies try to invade healthy cel
Giant Virus:
Massive, with disgusting, fleshy bodies and numerous tentacles
Mutated Cells:
These cells have undergone dangerous genetic mutations. Their attack involves spinning and rushing at the player, causing damage

Mobile pathogens that can group up for coordinated attacks. They release toxins or attack in swarms

Banger of a soundtrack!
Quite nice. Conceptualy it is very accomplished and contains a grain of actual educational relevance. As for constructive feedback: More consistency in visual apperance, line thickness, charater design, color-/lightlevel-difference between background and interactable elements, ect. would increase quality. I found the earlygame a little slow and awkward, maybe a bit higher turnspeed and a way to dodge "warrior bacteria" had made the first few levels more pleasurable.
Overall a very nice entry!
This game is visually stunning for a game jam, an absolute masterpiece! The gameplay has a lot of potential but I often felt lost and as soon as I figured out what to do I quickly died. I'm sure I'd get more out of it if I played longer, but there are many games to try! Overall an excellent experience. Will be rating highly.

Wow Game's title describes itself excellent, I liked it, and even more the gameplay and design. I generally like survival games like this mixed with Rogue-like genres, so it was good for me.
In general, I will rate it like this:
Gameplay - 4 stars out of 5. Design - 5 stars out of 5. Music - 5 stars out of 5.
I think everybody should try to play in this game.
I'm glad you liked this project. I hope we will also delight you with good games in the future
