Honestly, probably my favorite take on the theme, since it takes 'tiny creatures' quite both literally and creatively. Overall vibes are immaculate even if less developed. I can totally see the potential of a horror-stealth game where you play as a virus! it just needs more development of gameplay systems. Like, maybe the virus could start leaving a trail of infected goop, and the player would have to work around their own tracks, something like that. Or you would have to distract the WBC by intentionally leaving the goop at some spot as a red herring
I enjoyed navigating the circulatory system by obfuscating myself in the shadow of blood cells, but got a bit frustrated with the seemingly random nature of the white blood cells.
cool take on the theme! i first thought the game was a kind of linear runner as my character started moving on its own, so i ended up at the end of a root, or vein expecting a transition. Trying to backtrack i was caught pretty quick. Next couple attempts I was caught with nowhere to hide. Really dig the concept and could see it expanding.
Well done with the spooky vibe, my heart was racing when they were chasing. A stealth roguelike like this has a lot of potential.
Thank you!! Really liked your game too. Im really excited to keep working on this, i feel like this idea can go alot further than this.
Very fun game! White blood cells hunting you are scary. Excited to see where this goes.
