You play as vinnie, the virus who has gone *beneath the surface* of the skin to invade the blood stream. \r\n\r\n\r\n-- Controls --\r\nTo move simply click where you want to move to and vinnie will do the rest. \r\n\r\n\r\n-- Objectives --\r\n- Stay away from the White blood cells as they will attempt to hunt and destroy you. \r\n\r\n- Capture red blood cells to turn them into your allies. Allies will take hits from a white blood cell for you, if one get's too close... \r\n\r\n- Take your infected army to attack the brain hidden in the arteries!\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\nI had planned to do a lot more with this game but time constraints played a factor, including no music\/sounds :( Hopefully I get some post-LD work done on this and polish it up, because I really like the concept\r\n\r\n\r\nThe whole 48 hours was streamed & recorded on my twitch page if you want to check it out: (http:\/\/live.vanZeben.ca)","title":"Vinnie the Virus"}
