Plague Friend is stuck in a time loop of leeching their patient. There's got to be some way to escape! Travel back and forth in Plague Friend's timeline, talk to people, and leech your way out of the loop.
This is my first Ludum Dare and my first game ever. I hope you enjoy playing it as much as I enjoyed making it!
