Description

Patient Zero is a game about faux epidemiology. Comes with an in-game tutorial, as well as a few difficulty levels.

*Note: The number labels change color to reflect the previous day's findings, so a person who was diagnosed healthy the day before will have a green number even if he is infected that day.

Theme

The theme was "The more you have, the worse it is". In this case, I interpreted the exponential nature of the spread of diseases as an example.

Controls

Mouse only.

Details

Made with HTML5, JS, svg,js, jQuery. Graphics made in Adobe Illustrator. Font used: Barlow Semi Condensed (Google Fonts).

*Oops - minor fix (I named the fonts folder font on itch.io and screwed the font loading)
