An arcade/strategic game created for LDJam 46 jam (theme: Keep it alive) during COVID19 quarantine. A tribute to Conway's *Game of Life*. :v:

The game's objective is to keep alive as many people and viruses as you can while also maintaining a balance between population and free spaces. :open_mouth:

In order to do this, you'll need to use the given resources (placed in the top right corner of the screen) and deploy them on the board. When you use a resource, the next one pops up.
People age, and eventually die. When two people are next to each other they have some chance to breed. When a healthy person is close to an infected one there is some possibility that it gets infected.

Resources
- Hospital: When an infected person steps on it, the hospital disappears and the infected person is cured.
- Infector: When a healthy person steps on it, the infector disappears and the person is infected.
- Quarantine wall: People cannot move through a quarantine wall (thus, you cannot set a wall over a person). Beware, because wall occupy free spaces. Use them to make quarantine zones.
