In Human Body Fighter you are a nano-engineer whose goal is to protect the hapless Thomas from a swarm of deadly viruses. Using your specially developed radar bots, shooter bots, and bombs, you need to locate, attack and destroy the viruses before they sink their teeth into Thomas’ body.

Radar bot - pings nearby zones with live viruses on mini-map
Shooter bot - attacks viruses until they are inactive
Bomber - destroys all inactive viruses, ensuring they do not revive

All your bots have a limited lifespan, and you have a limited supply of them. Be sure to refill your supply using Thomas’ intestines and look for viruses on the mini-map. Viruses further away deal less damage, but bites on the brain and heart are deadlier!

Controls:

WASD - move

Left Click - place creature

X - switch active creature type

Ah - itch link is 404, might have to set to 'public'?

The art on display here is gobsmacking! Every bone, every virus, every UI element is beautifully rendered.
Once I got the hang of gameplay, it was quite fun - though I do wish I understood more about how radar works (do I have to have one on every body part?) and wish there was a way to zip around the body faster (perhaps just a 'shift to sprint').
The music and sfx are fun, and it was very cute to watch our little defenders hone on to and blast the baddies. Can't say enough good things about the visuals, stellar job!

I love the graphics and also the scaner thingy, it feels so great to use to see inside the body.
Overall great work!

I love this idea and fantastic graphics!It's a little funny that the bots actually look like viruses.

I really like the concept behind this one! I was a bit confused at first and don't think I quite understood the mini-map or how to find the viruses but other than that I really like the concept.

Cool concept and good execution!

The idea of using an X-ray is really clever! I wasn’t entirely sure what to do with the corpses, so I ended up blowing them up since the bombs didn’t seem to deal much damage.

Exploring the human body was fascinating, but it felt like the virus scanner wasn’t working correctly. I kept pressing space, but the viruses on the right hand weren’t detected and eventually grew to human size.

Overall, it's a fun and inventive concept, but fixing the scanner and providing more clarity with the mechanics would make it even better!

The sprites are very characterful here.
