I want to play but...

Developer

Sorry, but is there any problem you encounter while playing game?

Minimalistic design is good, the game took me back into 90's. We were creating such joke-programs where the 'Close' button was moving away from cursor. We were true hackers lol.

Clicking here and there on viruses bores pretty soon, but still nice game, thank you for my nostalgia.

Developer

Thank you for playing our game ^ ^ 

if you maybe had some suggestion for the gameplay you could reply here :)

My mouse disappeared from time to time. Was this intentional? :D 

Developer

Thank you for playing ^^

Disappearing cursor is intentional, and it is one of the random events.

Submitted(+1)

I like the concept and the OS interface is well made. I absolutely love the music: it motivates the player to play faster. But sometimes the mouse cursor disappears wich makes the gameplay difficult.

Good work!

Developer

Thanks for playing! Disappearing cursor is actually one of the random events, you can still click normally even when it disappear if you place it correctly. But I can see that it might be a bit unfair and I might change it for next update.

love the retro style  graphics. had fun playing. couldn't figure out what to do with the 'open system' tho.

Developer

Thanks for playing! You have to open the system and protect the folders inside it (by clicking on them), if any of the folder's bar reach zero, it's game over and the game will restart.

Submitted(+1)

The mouse disappearing is very, very unfun. Everything else is well-designed. One of the only few games I rated 5 for theme.

Developer

Thanks for playing! The disappearing cursor might be a bit unfair and not really fun, I can see that. I'll see what I can do with it for next update. Glad you enjoyed the rest of the game though ^^

This is literally the ultimate definition of chaos. My eyes were everywhere. Love the aesthetic of the game. The music was awesome. Nothing more to say. well-done!

Developer(+1)

Thank you ^^

loving the game, my eyes were crazy with all the tasks but that really shown the chaos haha

Developer

Thanks for playing!

The chaos of being an antivirus, loving it! It is so hard to focus on everything happening and new things are happening overtime, which ends up quite chaotic indeed! Though as I said, it is quite hard and is not for the faint of heart.


Great entry overall!

Developer

Thanks, glad you enjoyed it ^^

Submitted(+1)

In my opinion, the player core movement seemed a little bit slow (although itdoesn't seem to affect too much). Also not really a problem but i was a bit confused on what to do with the folders and stuff, but eventually got it.

Honestly though, this anti virus idea is amazing and also quite fun to play. The graphics and artstyle is simplistic but nice looking.

Overall I would say this is a nice and fun game with a lot of potential!

Developer(+1)

Thanks for playing! The movement is slow because I wanted the speed to be slower than the virus. Sorry for the confusion, we'll try to add tutorial after jam is over, glad you enjoyed the game ^^

The music reminds of playing megaman series, nice job on the choice. It really adds to the feel of the game. The game itself is very nice looking and I do love the concept of antivirus fending off viruses. I also love how chaotic it gets as you progress in the game, making this game fit very well to the jam's theme. 

I don't know if its just my browser but my mouse keeps disappearing and reappearing a second or 2 later and the game keep restarting after a certain point. 

Developer(+1)

Thank you, we spent a lot of time to choose on the concept and music. Glad you enjoyed it ^^

The mouse keep disappearing is intentional and is one of the random events. The game will restart itself (game over) when any of the folder's bar in system (press the button on top right of the screen to open) gets to zero.

Submitted(+1)

ahh cool.. thank you for the explaining it, it makes more sense now :D

Submitted(+1)

Haha, I enjoyed all the little features you added like the files box moving around the screen xD Nice work!

Developer

Thanks, It was really fun to create those features ^^

Submitted(+1)

i just randomly die sometimes

Developer

Thanks for playing, you have to recover the folder in system (press the button on top right of the screen) by clicking on them. If any of those folder's bar reach zero then it's game over! But if you have done that, it's probably a bug and I'll try to fix it.

Submitted(+1)

Solid game! I liked the addition of open tabs and the black and white graphics. At first I was confused on how to start, but once I figured it out it was pretty cool. I couldn't beat it, but it fits the theme, it really felt like chaos.

Developer

Thank you! We'll try to add proper tutorial after jam is over.

Submitted(+1)

That was super immersive, was getting right in to it but omg i can't beat it

Developer(+1)

Thank you, glad you enjoyed it. We're planning to make difficulty setting for next update, maybe you'd be interested ^^

Submitted(+1)

What an interesting take on the theme

Developer

Thanks!

Great one! Also, fck the spam windows, and the viruses, and the mouse disappearing. Gets a little bit too hard a little bit too son but overall, a very good one! =)

Developer

Thank you for playing, yeah the balancing isn't perfect, we'll try to adjust it on new updates.

P.S. Spam window is my favorite mechanic, glad you enjoyed it ^^

Submitted(+1)

I think you should give a tutorial. It also needs more balancing, since it became unbelievably hard after around 50%. Aside from that, I think it’s a very fun game!

Developer (1 edit)

Thanks! We didn't have enough time for proper tutorial,  so I updated the description with a "How to Play" section for now, but we'll try to add tutorial after the jam is over. As for balancing, we'll try to adjust it on new updates.
