Both fun and frustrating at the same time.
After a while I was mostly ignoring the ads on the left side of the screen and just playing on the right side. This worked fairly well. The only downside is that viruses can spawn directly on your folder, givign you no chance to kill or dodge them. If that happens enough times then you just simply lose.
I got till the Virus Boss who disappeared after I clicked it a few times. The game still went on so it wasn't the end and shortly after that the last 2 viruses spawned directly on my folder and I died.
Great job on the game !

This game is so polished and entertaining :) I hope it gets more ratings! I love the visual and character design, very good job :)
Just out of curiosity, is there any feature you had to cut due to time or other constraints (apart from viruses ahah)? I opened a topic called "The Features Cemetery" and would love your contribution there :)
Very polished and fun! The gameplay is frantic and I really like the concept overall. It's very difficult on a trackpad, I'm going to have to play again with a mouse and see if I can do better. I thought the enemy variety was great! Enjoyed how they were introduced individually over time. I really liked the art as well, reminded me of old flash games. I think slowing down time while the folder is open was a good idea from a gameplay balancing perspective, but I'm curious how the game would feel if you could still click on enemies and ads while the folder is open. That said, I think this is great work, really well done!
Oh man this is amazing!
I really sucked at the game, but this was really inspiring. I wish I could use the keyboard too - maybe click+drag, then delete multiple viruses at the same time (maybe being careful not to select my folder in the process?)
I wanna make a game like this now x)
Awesome work! Presentation, gameplay, everything was spot on! Though I didn’t really get to see how it connected with the theme.
My favorite game so far!
I can't help but love the classic flash style with engaging gameplay and fun humor.
A job well done!
I really liked your project, there's a lot of variety in enemies, power ups and stuff to click, well done! 😄
I found it to be a little difficult to play, but I guess I have to get better hahaha 😆
I don't really see how the theme fits in your game, if you could please explain it to me I could give you a higher rating 😊
Good job overall! 😁
Well that game gave me some serious IT anxiety, and I loved it. Great gameplay and creativity. Nice work!
The visuals are great. Good amount of replayability as well. I really enjoyed this one.
Wow, nice job. This was very well done and polished, and I couldn't stop playing til I beat it.
Really enjoyed the gameplay. I bet it's much easier on a touchscreen than with a mouse. I like the theme of visuals, you stayed on theme well. This was a lot of fun!
Evert aspect of this game is very good, it's very creative. I don't have anything negative to point out, maybe a scoreboard would've been nice, but that's it.
Wow, this was very flavorful - from ads to zip-enemies, everything was well connected between its gameplay function and presentation.
Difficulty was overwhelming for me at first, before I figured out how to cheese it :)
I'm just not exactly sure about one thing - how does it relate to the theme of the jam?
This game triggered my adsphobia once again.

I adore the game's presentation – The art style is great, and the gameplay is both easy to comprehend and slightly challenging (btw, if you know the trick, it's not too difficult). The quantity of game content feels just right; overall, it's excellent!
Here is a screenshot of my completed game.
