  • BioHunter was a super chill, bordering on cozy feeling game. The background music kept the feeling tense, but the color overall palette of the game felt less medicinal and more tea party with funny shapes. Being a biology nerd, I did super appreciate this high-school level example of how a lone antibody, trying its best, can defend the body. I found myself lock-in quickly. Controls are easy to understand and quick to pick up-- ideal for the casual player who just wants to learn more about how antibodies / enzymes work. Rotation speed, additional arms, or variable arm lengths would be ideal upgrades, if you were to implement a shop for spending points earned. I would highly suggest continuing the development of this title. Thank you very much for this submission to Pirate Software Game Jam 16.

I love the idea here, it's a really great take on the theme. Perhaps rotation could've been a little faster?

This is a fun game I feel is simple to learn but hard to master. Gameplay is really strong here. good work!
