I really liked this game. Visually it looks fantastic, and the concept behind it is pretty unique. I especially loved how the bosses remember beating you. When I discovered this on the second boss, I went back and lost on purpose to the first one. His dialogue for beating you over and over is hilarious. This feature is really neat and makes losing kind of fun. The green guy is my favorite of the two. 

My only gripe is with the second phase of the second boss. Maybe I am awful at games, but I wasn't able to beat him even on baby mode after multiple attempts. I think so much is happening on screen so fast its almost impossible to react or do anything in time. I also encountered a bug where I couldn't move the antivirus around. It was fixed once I died, but it was weird.

But everything else in the game is fantastic. The character design, the dialogue, the visuals,  the concept. I'd love to see more viruses added to the game to fight, or the option to rematch old viruses you've already beaten. But it seems like it hasn't been updated for a while so I guess the project is on hiatus or cancelled, which is a shame. Either way, this was a fun little experience.
