Nice meta memes in the game, overall good and polished gameplay. Like that you can play from the browser. Very nice :)

Submitted

I liked the names of the upgrades and it is simple to understand how to play.

Submitted

Very topical. The upgrade names were funny, the fact you could purchase CPS was good. The fact that the number of victims went down doesn't make much sense. Would prefer if there was a counter for total victims. Also there was a glitch where the number went negative. overall good game

A fun little game. Does exactly what it says it would.

Don't have anything bad to say about it. Maybe some music would be nice.

Submitted

Pretty solid game, everything works. Very much a does what it says on the tin kind of item. I particularly like that I can see what level each of my upgrades is but it would have been nice to have those stats a little bolder/ clearer. 

The video was also very nicely done. Nothing builds hype more than dramatic music and words on the screen! 

Well done team, Team Gonna Scream.

The game was enjoyable and provided a good take on the current situation, the only thing i would mention to inprove the gameing experience would be adding sounds for backgroung.

Submitted

Fits the theme, works well but have found that sometimes after clicking an upgrade and then click another it seems to remove from the counter even though you dont have the required points for it and I presume get the upgrade awell which is rather odd

I Found the game enjoyable, The theme of the game meets the current situation and i didn't have any bugs. All I would say is maybe add more upgrades and some sounds.

Nice simple concept! Your game is much like ours where we went for the 'cookie clicker' style game :D
I really like what you done with the art work by mixing 2D with 3D (Unless that covid was some crazy rendered 2D art)

Where is the music and sound FX though? :(

Submitted

I really like the artstyle and cartoony aesthetic! I think more upgrades would be pretty cool if possible! 

Nice game simple concept but fun  multi buttons with different effects is good.  Little bit of a plauge inc vibe.

Having lots of different buttons to choose from to increment makes the gameplay a lot of fun. I like the fact that the game has that lab based theme aswell. One thing I would say is to make the graphics a bit sharper to stand out a bit.

Submitted

Good idea, nicely executed. Having a 3D looking object in the middle of a 2D background is the only thing that sticks out to me other than the fact I managed to get negative amounts of victims somehow.

Developer

Thanks for the feedback, the whole negative score is something that I have seen and for sure needs fixing, but I am glad you enjoyed the game :)

Submitted

Loving the wit in the upgrades! All round great game. It feels balanced and progression is at a good pace.

I managed to somehow go into the negatives when buying upgrades (see screenshot below), but other than that, no problems!

Great work!

Thank you for providing feedback, this is something that i have also noticed but a bit too late and no clue on how to fix just yet, but thanks for pointing this out.

I'm glad you enjoyed the game :)

Submitted

I'm not a big fan of COVID, so I'd say that's one of my main criticisms of this game.

For a clicker game, however, this game has a nice rate of progression which is a positive.

So in terms of gameplay, nice game.

UP2037603: I quite liked your method of increasing costs for upgrades making sure that the player doesn't run away with vlues too high early on as well as UI and graphics well suited for the theme.

I do feel that CPS and the click upgrades felt a bit detached as CPS uses the base click value rather than the upgraded one (also, a minor note but Trump Rally (I do quite like the appropriate source of infection) says +1 CPS but adds +5)..  I think some small audio effects would be nice but they're not too vital.

Developer

Thanks for the review, the reasoning behind splitting the cps and points per click were because after a certain point where more auto clickers are owned than it is possible to click the game becomes effectively an idle game, however with some tweaks it is a path that I can look into. An

Also thanks for pointing out the missed typing on the Trump Rally, complete oversight from tiredness and last minute final touches.

And audio is something that can definitely be implemented.
