Nice concept and visuals. Would have been great to have some sound and more feedback when things happened. Looks like you made a good start. Good job getting it published and up

Nice take on the theme! Could be a great game with a bit more polish like sounds, animations, pathogens moving arounds. Glad you got a working game in the end though!

Fantastic start but sounds like you ran out of time to add more to it. I think sound would be the top priority, be also interesting if the infection could move around rather than just sitting, increasing inflammation. At the moment the game is rather linear and lacks some dynamism.

Great work for the limited time you had.

Immune Response

Thanks! Yes, if I had the time I woudl have liked to have the number of virus and bacteria increase and spead with the inflamation.

Cool game, with nice-looking assets, and everything is on the theme, I think a few sounds and some music would drastically improve this. Good work!

Chicken Chaser - GDTV Jam 2025 #gdtvjam

Thanks - I loved your game btw

crazyhoundgamedesignSubmitted97 days ago

Nice start, it just needs refinement.

There are lots of little things that can be done to give feedback when things happen in the game, from sounds to animations and visual effects. At the moment, unless you take the time to look at the health bar, you don't really notice it going down. While the "inflammation" shrinks after consuming the parasite, there is no feedback other than the parasite disappearing . You could also add a visual effect to the screen or player to indicate when health is going down as well.

Thanks for the game.

Petri Dish - GDTV Jam 25

Thanks. Unfortunatly, something came up and I only got a couple of days to work on it so didn't get the tiome to add any effects.

crazyhoundgamedesignSubmitted97 days ago

No worries.

perplexggSubmitted97 days ago

It's a good start, and looks nice and fits the theme very well. I think the main thing missing is better explanation and in-game feedback, like some kind of effect when you take damage or kill a germ. In general I think if you communicate the rules of the game a bit better this can be a great experience! Congrats on submitting!

Thanks. I had a a limited amout of time to put it together, like yourself. I would have liked to have had different types of immune cells for different tasks.
