Difficulty ramped up in a fair way, so great job on that, it's hard to do right. I really enjoyed the game. Nice job. Art and sound effects also kept a consistent style.

Okay, got it working! Glad I did, it was a super fun experience! The visuals were fun and cartoony, and the great SFXs topped everything! Difficulty felt good as well, and everything fit thematically to the game! Nice, nice, super nice!

Developer

Thank you a lot for continue trying and your kind words!

Ooh, topical! This is a fun setup. Trying to buy groceries in the year 2022 does feel a little like this, haha. I also like how there's multiple health bars (infection/vaccination/HP), that adds an interesting wrinkle to the gameplay. Well done.

Developer

I'm glad that you liked it, thank you 👍

I'm sorry, but my computer wouldn't let me play the game.. I'd really love to try it!

what is the concern ?

We need  4 rate more i think and we start to panic ^^

My malware protection app doesn't let me open it, it's strange but I can't seem to bypass it for some reason :D

Developer

What was the problem? I know that Sometimes anti viruses show an alert with game maker 's games, but you can tell the computer to execute the program anyway. 

Submitted

For some reason in this case I couldn't find the option, even though in other games I could. I'm sure it is there, I just can't find it :D

Developer

maybe there is a ùention "more information" when the program is blocked, and if you click on it, you can choose execute anyway (i'm sorry, since i'm french, it may not be exactly the same words written on your computer)

I'll have to look into it!

Probably the game I had most fun with ahahha it was freaking hilarious and hits right home with the paranoia and all of the crazy confinement plus the fear of getting sick. The gameplay is solid, the graphics as well, the music and the interludes oh man very creative! 

Developer

Thank you for these kind words! 

Developer
yes, that's exactly what we were trying to do :)

Thank you for you reply <3

Concept rigolo, et mécaniques vraiment sympa. Le gameplay est fun, mais un peu trop difficile. Je trouve ça dommage de devoir équilibrer avec un bouton pour faire gagner de la vie, mais je comprends au vu du temps impartit. Peut être que la hitbox est trop grande, la réduire et la rendre visible (à la manière d'un Touhou) pourrait rendre le jeu plus accessible.

Les musiques sont vraiment chouette, surtout celle du QR code (phase qui est une très bonne idée d'ailleurs) mais un peu surmixé. 

Les SFX sont assez pauvre malheureusement, et manquent de cohérence. Certains sont bitcrushé mais pas d'autre, ça crée une dissonnance. Mais les prises de voix sont rigolote et ajoutent au côté décalé du jeu. Cela manque de feedback par contre, par exemple sur les tirs du boss. 

Globalement jeu très sympa, avec ses petits défauts mais ça reste une expérience fun :)

Developer

C'est pas "équilibré avec un bouton", on a juste laissé le cheat qu'on utilisait pour nos tests 😅

Hahaha d'accord ça explique tout XD

oh merci pour ce retour :)

C'est vrai que j'ai pas pensé à commenter votre jeu de manière aussi détaillé que toi. Je corrige ça de ce pat.

Enfin au passage le perso regagne de la vie automatiquement.

That was SO fun, a lots of ideas, really funny jokes (especially when you're french) due to the many hidden details! Congratulations to the whole team!!

Très très fun, avec beaucoup d'idées, se diversifi au fur à mesure, des blagues très sympas notamment du aux nombreux détails cachés !
Félicitation à toute l'équipe !!
