Tell us about your game!
You are a sentient antivirus! Protect grandma's PC from scheming scammers and viruses by completing mini-games. Click and point game, escape to open the menu. The intent was that grandma would go about her day incompetently clicking on malicious ads etc. causing viruses to be run and open as minigames which have to be juggled lest more windows open and the PC comes to a halt! The CPU usage behaviour is in place, and can be tested by opening multiple windows and seeing the frames come crashing to a halt

Did you remember to include your Game Design Document?
yes

Is your game set to Public so we can see it?
yes

Extra Notes
Thanks for checking it out! Unfortunately the week didn't line up how we wanted it to for the team, but hopefully you can see the idea behind it and manage to get some laughs out of how it's set up

Definitely cutely themed - we all know grandma is catching that malware. Cute puzzles, but definitely missing some instructions or possible hints, and unsure of win conditions. Enjoyed it for a few minutes of play and look forward to more!
