I can't believe it took me so long to encounter a game about pandemic!
This is one of the most unique games I've played during this jam, and it'd diseptively simple at first. I love that you used standard and basic controls so this falls into the "easy to learn, hard to master" category. Great design!

Out of the 10 or so games I've played so far this is my favourite. Most I've got to is 40 years, it's dastardly difficult later on! Compelling concept would love to see this game fleshed out and released at some point ;)

I really like the old arcade style!! The idea is not very new, but the game is very clean! Well done!

This is interesting definitely fairly unique in this game jam but it also reminds of undertale though that may be because you are controlling a heart. Its interesting that as it becomes more difficult the warnings being showing up so early become where the difficulty lies. initially it makes it very easy to get out of they way in time but later on you can forget that something is still going to show up there while dodging other viruses

A very basic concept implemented well. Liked the graphics and game play. Good job!

Simple yet very fun! I enjoyed it a lot! Nice art and music!

Best feature in this game is the turn sound off function, the sound wasnt bad, but i play games in silent mode. A lot of people forget this function. All in all great game, easy to play and nice balancing.

Wow I love that art, so crisp and clear and communicative. Lovely. The gameplay is excellent as well, simple but well executed with a well-paced difficulty curve.

Awesome Game! I got stuck playing it, the only things that could be improved is button responsiveness (when you hover over them) and the amount of menus you have to click through every game, maybe make the instructions only show on the first game after it's opened. I had tons of fun and played for far longer than I should have! I like how it gets harder when you age, great reflection on real life! Fantastic Job!

Well that was a lot of fun! I actually got to 55 on my second go but didn't take a picture, then die around 30 for a bit. 49 is the next best I could do. I love the simple yet fast pace game play, will say that difficulty ramp is almost 90* tho. I also want to ask if you beat the game your self or just sent this beast into the wild? I feel with some time I could get that higher, but 100 may take some time... A lot of time. Great job!

Now that is a hard, very polished arcady game! Graphics and animations are awesome. Gameplay could be a bit more forgiving to my taste, but who am I to judge when I have no loosing condition in my own entry? xD Sound effects and music really fit the mood. The music loop is maybe a bit repetitive? Excellent game overall! I'm surprised it is your first entry as this is high quality stuff. But then I see you have a lot of games on itch (take my follow). Keep making games, I'll keep an eye on them ^^

one of the best games to play in this jam. it is quite addictive and you want to advance more all the time. very very good game. maybe with more active music it would be perfect. good job!
