Very nice, but you can do better.

Not my 100% effort?
Any idea's to improve on it?
mhmm
Oddly addictive, and I rarely say that about a game. :D
Over-Kill responds:
Thanks!

my god...you had me playing this for 2 hours...2 hours!! It is very addictive. It is a great game though! the sound was awesome, I turned my stereos all the way up, and i like how you can just keep going and becoming stronger. what would be better though, is if the back cells would form together between them besides you so that it will make it harder. Great Job!!
Over-Kill responds:
Wow 2 hours.
I'm glad you enjoyed it!
Very nicely done game
It's really nice to come to NG day after day and slog through the recent portal entries then discover this! It is a nicely done game that reminds me of a top down missile command. With a little polish, you could enter it IGF or the Serious Games Summit or Slamdance Guerilla Gamemaker competition.
Besides the game play, I was really impressed that the theme was not about some kid in a school yard fending off his buddies or a space ship fending off aliens. Those themes are just too overused. By building it around some kind of weird crap that is going on in someone's body, it opens up many more possiblities. (Which is why the nod to Serious Games. I don't play them, but if I was a kid dying of cancer in a hospital somewhere, I sure as hell would love to play a game like this to make me feel less defenseless.)
If you were going to add stuff- maybe more detailed microbe enemies, bigger bosses, something that comes down the arteries in the background might be nice. A very limited "kill all on screen button" like Defender would be cool. maybe even some kind of preview so you can see some big ass thing getting ready to attack you which would of course make you take your eyes off the task at hand.
If there are any weak spots, I'd say it was in the difficulty level- it seemed very very gradual, almost static. Mouse sensitivity was also kinda slow compared to other games (though I'm not sure you're trying to control that)
So do some polish, and pimp the game as the best damn cancer fighting thing out there!
Over-Kill responds:
Thanks for the review!
In fact the cells graphics are being redone to look kick ass.
I thought of teh "nuke" type weapon taht kills everything on the screen but thought against it sinse those weapons always turn out to be very cheap game spoilers.
Thanks again i'll look into what you said.
Very nice
