Use of the limitation
The blood flow in the artery does not allow the submarine to move down, so it is the only way to go is up.

silly red bloods cells always getting in my way of my laser. Neat laser effect tough pretty challenging game .
Looks amazing, hard but beatable well done!!
Quite fun, just a bit difficult, which is not necessarily bad. Liked the art, sound effects and music. The laser and movement were cool mechanics too! I think a nice idea would be more variation in the journey, e.g. the heart.
Very funny game :) I like how you look on the limitation and theme. Graphic and sound perfect fit to the game:) Game is hard, but I think this is balance difficulty :) I like this element of help when you lost and start next try with more mission progress bar. If I can suggest something, maybe you should add some upgrades and a boss :D ?
Cool laser
This is fun! Good job!
An interesting idea.Good combinations of sounds, graphics, controls.Good job!
Wow, nice!
Most of the time I wasn't sure if I was going up, but it is a great game :D
Thanks! I changed the sprite of the artery walls, so now the movement is more visible.
Nice. Easily one of my favourite games here :D
All this game needs is to reduce the health on EVERYthing and make it more fast paced. Check out my live review at https://www.twitch.tv/scalphamission
Thanks, your review and recommendation helped me. I made update that increased the stream twice faster and increased laser`s damage. The game just got better!
Love your take on the theme and limitation!
love how you just pop out of the syringe lol. The lazer effect looked amazing!
Good work! i really like the laser effect, was pretty awesome! it was hard to tell if i was going up or down though. alot of the time i stayed still and just shot the yellow balls.
Thanks for the feedback, it helped improve the game. I changed the sprite of the artery walls, so now the movement is more visible.
