YOU DONT NEED TO DOWNLOAD THE GAME, JUST CLICK AND PLAY :)

You are a renomed T.I. professional, and you face off this situation:
Welcome to a OS that are infested with virus, and its up to you to exterminate it by instaling the best anti-virus in the whole world, The DAIBU Anti-Virus. But keep an eye in popups, because they consume too much RAM memory.

- We use a claustrofobic space and annoying ads to simulate the *running out of space* sensation.
- And of course, the lack of memory RAM that you have
- Use the mouse to play the game
- Runs directly in your browser

A really fun game! The mechanics work well and the concept should be familiar to anyone with a computer. Great job at making something that fits the theme and is this fun to play.

Hakro13 Aug 2018, 15:19

Nice one :)
I liked the touch of Terms & Conditions, and didn't expect that my password & login need to be remembered for later.

Fun to play.

Nice work.

Great job! I legitimately felt stressed out as the popups filled the screen.

sylvie13 Aug 2018, 15:23

Cute game. The popups did a good job of being annoying. It was nice to be able to finally close them all at the end.

girania13 Aug 2018, 15:24

This was so much fun! I really like this one!

thebmxeur13 Aug 2018, 15:32

Would be great if Microsoft started to play a sound each time a Window opened.

Ziovoxxer13 Aug 2018, 16:03

Thanks all of you for your feedback, we are really happy that you liked our game :)

Raphael Maia13 Aug 2018, 17:48

The best fit for the theme so far! simple and clever, good job!

johnnydalviauthor13 Aug 2018, 17:57

Thank you @raphael-maia, it means a lot to us to know that you guys liked it.

SamuelDeboni13 Aug 2018, 21:03

Great game!! it's a lot of fun and fits very well the theme.

AdultLink14 Aug 2018, 02:06

0/10 It let me use my username as password.

Great game, I loved it. Awesome humor and execution! Really makes you anxious :D

Bloc9714 Aug 2018, 02:06

Oh boy this was a fun game, sadly there is no replayability. It fits the theme perfectly and it was humorous.

Aaah thank you for recreating that highschool lab computer experience I have missed so much.

This was a fantastic game. I only wish I had more time to read the popups. Took a couple plays, great difficulty level. Nice audio too.

Andrew Friedman14 Aug 2018, 02:48

Game is easier on smaller monitors. Maybe find a way to make it equally challenging for everyone? Graphics are perfect and audio is gr8. Good job. Great game! :)

loyance14 Aug 2018, 03:00

I enjoyed this quite a lot. The popups are hilarious, good job on this.

The only small thing I would've changed is that when I click on a title bar on a popup behind the installer it doesn't bring the popup window to the front. But that's just me, besides that, this game is amazing

Mowztouch14 Aug 2018, 03:35

haha i managed to install the antivirus, after some tries :)
For so many years i said : "yeaaah let's play Windows.. " Now i can. Thank you! :)
I'll share it to some friends.

Dongle14 Aug 2018, 03:48

You took a concept that would be annoying and made it fun. I really liked it!

Ever14 Aug 2018, 03:53

THE STRESS IS REAL

The humor too

Fits the theme perfectly, panic/10 would install virus again

Hare Software14 Aug 2018, 09:59

Too much stress and almost missed out on all of the humorous windows, but still a great game, great job!

johnnydalviauthor14 Aug 2018, 10:52

Thank you guys for trying our game, we are very happy to know that majority of you liked it and that the game ended up providing the experience that we were trying to make it provide.

LoneHearts14 Aug 2018, 17:30

good idea, good realization, nothing much to say x)
you could add a "minimum requirement" ( like having a number or a uppercase letter ) for the password to add trouble :)

Ziovoxxer14 Aug 2018, 20:24

@lonehearts you want even more trouble? hahahaha, but we could add some "hardcore mode" with an minimum requirement in the password and 2gb of RAM memory, instead of 4gb hahahahha. But not for now, just to make fun with it later. Thanks for the feedback :)

LoneHearts14 Aug 2018, 21:04

@ziovoxxer well, i would have succeed even with 2Gb :p

johnnydalviauthor14 Aug 2018, 22:22

That's a fast clicker right there xD @lonehearts thanks for playing it

drtizzle15 Aug 2018, 07:13

Damn, no time to relax! I really liked the ads, very realistic! I really want my nose to grow longer. The music was also strangely hypnotising.
Too bad there is nothing more to do than clicking like a madman.

Well done!

zlou_kote15 Aug 2018, 07:36

YEEEE! Amazing and funny game. Ads is annoying, so you WANT to install antivirus to delete it. Good job!

indegame15 Aug 2018, 07:58

That was stressful. It's a fun and funny game. Seeing the "oops" made me laugh. The music was good as well. Good job!

bob15215 Aug 2018, 08:18

Great game - I liked the interpretation of the theme. It got quite stressful by the end and it was a really enjoyable playthough. The difficulty was good, but maybe you could have added one or two more install screens (maybe choosing which drive to install the antivirus on)

YamiFive15 Aug 2018, 08:39

Really good, but IMO too easy

SimonAura15 Aug 2018, 09:05

So hilarious, the best part is to watch all the popups. The game is very well designed, it will have potential even outside the LudumDare if it is improved ! Well done ! :D

johnnydalviauthor15 Aug 2018, 12:36

@drtizzle thanks for playing it. I agree, we were about to add more types of windows with different mechanics but we ran out of time, we will definitely look into it if we decide to keep developing it

johnnydalviauthor15 Aug 2018, 12:41

@bob152 thanks for the feedback, we wanted to do add the screen for choosing the driver but we didn't have enough time, another idea that we have is to add multiple programs to be instaled and then create diversity from there (and adding different steps to each one)
@zlou-kote @simonaura @indegame We are glad to know that you guys liked it :D thanks a lot for playing and for the feedback as well

johnnydalviauthor15 Aug 2018, 12:45

@yamifive I don't disagree, we tried to make it accessible to a broader range of people, and since we wanted the players to be able to actually finish the game while testing it (most devs will likely spend just about 5min ~ 10min), we decided to reduce the difficulty a bit. The idea is to add more programs to be installed and then create more difficult levels. Thanks for the feedback

lfreinoso15 Aug 2018, 20:33

Very nice game, congratulations. You incorporated the theme well, the only thing that bothered me was being short, but at 48 hours you built a very cool prototype !!!!

lfreinoso15 Aug 2018, 20:35

To help with the improvements, there was a lack of sounds for the windows that open, as well as having animated gifs, a better and more comic atmosphere, I liked the drawings.

lfreinoso15 Aug 2018, 20:35

See my game : https://ldjam.com/events/ludum-dare/42/nodelaya-wings

DevEmil15 Aug 2018, 22:58

That moment when you aim for that tiny ass close button, and as you finally reach it ANOTHER POP-UP appears on top of it and you have to go to close that one first!

Defenitely a great game, fun as hell and always got some surprises for you! (oops, password re-enter, all the hillarious pop-ups)
Nice one! :)

Ziovoxxer15 Aug 2018, 23:05

@devemil, We are happy that you liked our game, thanks for the feedback :)

Ziovoxxer15 Aug 2018, 23:08

@lfreinoso Yes, there is a lot of stuff that we can add to polish the game, like a hardcore mode with 2gb of RAM, some windows that direct you to others, put some animations in Gifs, like you said to leave a little closer to the real rsrs, there really are several possibilities :)

Andy Garcia16 Aug 2018, 01:21

This game really implemented the theme in a very unique way! A lot of fun and very funny especially the terms of agreement portion. The sound for the pop-up boxes though were a tad bit to loud and forced me to bring down my volume a bit.

BustosMan16 Aug 2018, 10:16

I don't know but after a while my hand does get pretty tired from clicking a lot, but the end goal is still pretty cool, though. The game was definitely challenging, but could have something else for the player to do like a very small mini game. Decent game!
