Reviews for "BioLabs: Outbreak!"
Very good game!
Incredibly addicting, fun and just an all around awesome game!
Ah, what a great simple game. [688]
I played this when you released it on 3/17, St. Patrick's Day, but have been meaning to get around to reviewing it for a couple weeks now. Happy to finally do so now.
At first, I wasn't sure how to really... play this. Because I figured that making a huge drop would use up the entire syringe of antidote.... but then I discovered that your coding of the syringe's fluid level basically values number of dispensations... over VOLUME of dispensations. Meaning you can pop a few HUGE globs onto the playing field for a whole lot less antidote... than 10x as much TINY droplets. While not exactly super-realistic, this makes for easier gameplay. Also, I love the sound of a dying virus. It's an awesome sound effect.
Of course, the challenge comes in when more and more virii outbreak... and after one or two huge bubbles of antidote... you're no longer free to just make it as big as the space will allow... a virus will surely touch it before you're done releasing it.... and totally ruin your bubble and waste the fluid you just committed. So.... it's a great balance you have to have.
Well coded, no bugs that I can see... awesome game! I would only add one thing to it if I could. That would be a little indication on the virii that the space they're confined in has gotten small enough to cause them to wither and die. Granted, part of the challenge might be that you need to make the spaces only JUST confining enough for that to happen.... but wasting a bunch of fluid in one half of the screen only to find you don't have enough for the virii on the other side of the screen... kinda blows. And related to that, if you run out of antidote while squirting out a final bubble that will kill the final virus or virii... I don't think you should instantly get a "game over" screen. It should wait for 15 seconds or so to see if the virii die or not. If even just one virus still lives after they've been moving around in the confined space.... then boom, game over at that point. It's also weird how you have to go back 1 level when you play again, instead of playing the same level again (argh... I just beat level 12... yet when I fail level 13, I have to do level 12 again? WTF? #;-}>). But those three things aside...
Great job, I hope you make a sequel or similar games in the future. Thanks!
Another take on this kind of game. Not bad.
Pretty cool.
great
kept me entertained for 3 hours,
