Great little game and nicely done with getting the game/game page visuals to match up so neatly!
I think that one thing that would make this more interesting is having some kind of country reluctance to the quarantine action, I found I was able to clamp on any outbreak pretty easily.
Awesome visuals and idea! If you fix up some of the janky controls and toss in a short tutorial section or something this would be a super great game!
Similar to other commenters I enjoyed it but didn't really understand what the quarantine symbol did, and the wall building tool was very difficult to use. I'm not sure whether either of those were intentional.
But the core loop was very engaging. I had a few games there I won by within a few seconds. A few where it just spiraled and I lost quickly. And one game where I managed to wall off each outbreak as it came but could never quite stamp it out before a new outbreak happened somewhere else. Which felt ripped straight from the headlines. That alone means this game is quite a success. Well done!
Game was super engaging, partly because of the addictive gameplay and partly due to the cute and simple art.
I wish I had a better idea of what my tools did, took me a few tries to graps the concepts at hand.
Otherwise I had a great time trying your game out, so impressed you managed to do it all in scratch! Great job!
Solid presentation ! Love the big pixels :D I had a little bit of trouble to understand at first but still enjoyed it.
