Summarise your game!
pH-Neutralize is an arcade style survival minigame. Play as a newly prototyped humanoid weapon, and change forms to neutralize enemies before they make it past your defenses.

Please explain how your game fits the theme:
Quite literally, "You Are The Weapon" mankind has created in an attempt to protect themselves... or at least a prototype weapon.

Love the biology-inspired takes on the theme! The gameplay is very intuitive, and I liked using the mouse wheel to play. Great job!

Thank you!! :D The idea started out as just color matching but I was reminded of pH indicator strips and moved in that direction. And then I had ideas for adding other biochem concepts, but that's beyond the scope of a 2 week jam for me lol. But I'm so glad you enjoyed!! :3

I like the idea of neutralizing both the acids and bases like this. I would suggest adding a cooldown on the attack, so the players need to use al the possible pH attacks. 

Developer

Thank you for the feedback, and for playing! I actually considered it, and there's an unused cooldown sprite, so I might add it in the future lol

very nice! i love the concept! i could use the mouse wheel very well and ended up using 1 and E to flip between the highest and lowest values to explodes the buggers. very enjoyable!

Developer

Thanks for playing! That's actually a cool use of the hotkeys and scroll wheel, and it makes me glad I added the different swapping options. And I'm very glad you enjoyed it! :DD

Oooooh, so I need to make them become 7! That took a while. Nice one!! Thanks for adding the A/D option, my mouse wheel didn't do well

Developer

Thanks for playing! I definitely should've explained more clearly how to neutralize enemies in either the instructions or between waves, but I'm glad you enjoyed! When I playtested with only mouse wheel, it felt a bit clunky, so I added hotkeys and A/D, and I'm glad I did lol
