This game is awesome!! The amount of work put into this is enormous and you should be super proud! Except... Arial. Just kidding, good luck on future titles! PS there were a couple of typos.

The graphics are really cute and really cool concept.

Nice game, love the themes. It was a bit difficult, I'd have liked more ammo to start with to get to grips with it. Love the menu style!

Nice game! Nice concept! Good aesthetic and gameplay is pretty effective.

Become a lot easier if you stay nearby a file to protect it until the waves are finished. If you want to avoid that, you can make a global lifebar for your hard drive depending on your corrupted files.

Good job! :)

The Windows XP screen was a nice touch :D

The game itself is a bit hard though and the tutorial could have been a bit more inegrated! The theme could have been better integrated as well!

Hard game, but it looks very nice. Windows XP is a good move.

Very clever main menu. Good concept, but I found it really hard to get past even the second level. In the end, I found it hard to balance all the information I was given (2 enemy spawn points, 4 files, ammo, how many spawns left, how many drives corrupted). I feel like you could simplify this game a lot and it would be just as good, if not better.
Overall though, I had a really fun time! The game play is satisfying (when you remember to get ammo) and the concept was clever. Good job!

"Final_build_almost_all_bug_fixed.zip" has a great concept! FPS was incredibly low however... almost impossible to play :(

@the-shadermaster Hey, thanks for the feedback if you have a problem running our game try Low setting with decreased resolution and windowed That could help. Unfortunately, our game is visual heavy and we didn't have much time optimizing it. If you still having problems we are deeply sorry :cry:

Good game mechanics, but a little to hard already in the first seconds. Visually the game is gorgeous and you should be very proud! I had a little of problems with stability in my potato notebook, but don't think that ruin the experience. I really liked the concept and the fells of "Osmosis Jones" in the computer. Really well done :)

These viruses need to step up their game if they want to compete with me, the best anti-malware product of all times! :smile:

Nice game, but you need to work on the enemy AI, or make the arena more open (like in Alien Shooter or Crimsonland).
