Cool game and I love the sounds, especially oxygen collecting sounds. I didn't always feel where I can go through and where are the unwalkable sides of the veins, but anyway the bloodflow most of the time felt comfortable to control. Nice and cute entry, good job.

This game is AMAZING. Really loved to play it. The integration of the tutorial with the story is just perfect, nice movements, cute characters! I'd definitely want to see more of it. Very good job!

Very nice game, well made, good graphics and a very cool interpretation of the theme. Controls and collision can get annoying at times, and the music does start to get repetitive after a while, but apart from that fantastic game, very well done!

Cool game, i love how you guys did the movement. The somewhat automatic steering helper makes the game feel great. In audio and visual department you are doing great as well the soundtrack gives off some good vibes that fit well together with the art. The small issue i have with the game is that maybe the distance between the objectives is a bit to far. But overall good job!

Reminds me of that old animated series about the human body. Pretty neat.

Good idea and the overall is well polished. Sometimes it's hard to understand why I'm moving super fast or really slow and collisions are not perfect everywhere. Great job by the way.

Very cute and quite fun! the only problem was that sometimes the little blood cells would get stuck somewhere and I'd just have to keep going until I found them again. If I passed by somewhere that needed oxygen at this time the game would add the oxygen as if all the little cells were there.

Very unique take on the theme! It's also one of the cutest games I've ever seen in an LD.

I tried to complete it a few times, but I kept losing my minions and had to backtrack for them, and after finding them they kept walking into walls and didn't latch back onto me.

God, this game is adorable! I loved it!

Great audio design, great soundtrack, great graphics, great narrative voice- it was all very good. The only suggestion I can even think of giving is to add some directional arrows to show the flow of blood so that it's a bit easier to see, but apart from that I loved it.

Really well done! :)

I always like crowd movement, all those little blobs following you through the tunnels is quite fun. For a multitasking/management game the different places are a little too far apart for me. Also while moving the pulse periodically pulls you back which can be a annoying because the camera always zooms in because of the slowdown. That combined with the repetitive music unfortunately really got on my nerves :neutral_face:

That's a lot of art work even for Jam. Awesome.
Do you have any plans on additional mechanics for this game?

I was afraid that viruses would kill my blood cells or remove oxygen, but it seems they are just obstacles.

Here is my playthrough: https://youtu.be/fGoSkpRsV5c

I really enjoyed playing this! It looks good, sounds good and also feels good. I'm not sure how far along in the game I was, I died because of my stomach when I was supposed to get rid of the cocktail in my liver. While doing that most of my little bloodcells got stuck and since I wasn't sure if I needed them all I spent some time getting them to follow me again.

I think this would make a great educational game for kids learning about the human body!

The game is quite interesting. It is a unique take of the theme and it is rather well made. The game was a bit confusing at first, I had to fiddle around to figure out what exactly I had to do. The movement controls were intuitive and the objective was clear. My only problem is that when the little blood cells are in my way, I can't move past them like cells would.

Awesome game! Very relaxing and fun to play. the music was nice, everything is cute, and the tutorial works great.
The organ oxygen meters feel balanced which is great.

The only problems I have are the distance between organs and weird collisions, especially with the small blood cells.

BTW, why are the germs in the game? didn't have time to enemy-fy them?

Nice game! The graphic is very good, Well clean and harmonious with the rest of the game. Congratulations!!! Very Good.

Very good game. Graphics and audio are really great !!
I appreciated the bloodflow and the narrative tutorial that are especially well done.

I coudn't find a way to the liver without going against the tide. Maybe the game is too zoomed on blood cells.

Anyway, very good entry :)

Really nice game, the graphics is great and so is the idea. Just sometimes the little cells would get stuck behind some corner, and after a while, when I met them again, they wouldn't follow me anymore. And the music got a little bit annoying after a while of playing. But otherwise, the game is really cool.

Nice game and beautifull art, perhaps the music does start to get repetitive after a while and viruses do nothing, maybe when one of them arrives at an organ, it should need oxygen more quickly . Anyway i love your bloody small world ^^ Good job.

This is a really cute game! Love the graphics and the sounds. The popping sound especially is very satisfying. I liked the controls, and being pushed by the blood stream to know where you are supposed to go to get back to the heart. But on some occasions, the class couldn't keep up and I couldn't find them anymore. Another time they couldn't get into the heart until I pushed them a bit. But apart from those small issues, it's a really fun game.

Love the game, beautiful and clean art. Cute characters and easy to understand gameplay (after initial confusion). Going with the blood flow was a little too fast for me at times, but other than that I enjoyed it a lot. :thumbsup:

So THAT's how it works! Great game, it feels really good zooming through the body on an urgent oxygen delivery mission. My class skived off early though, and my human died shortly after I beat the game. Stay in school, kids.

I see what you mean; yeah a very different take indeed! I love the implementation of game mechanics around real-world mechanics here. Art and sound are cute; I agree the music loop is maybe too short for the session time (stuff like that is always really hard to pick up on in a games jam). I liked how you introduced the organs gradually with the activity of the day. Going forward, it'd be good to see the day's activities causing strong dips in the oxygen levels of certain areas, maybe with a rough outline so that you could get an element of strategy going, to break out of the "okay I'm at the lungs, what organ's lowest?" pattern.

In all, I really enjoyed it. Also, who doesn't love a punny title? =)

Thank you all so much for your kind feedback, it's very valuable for us!

@icxon: Thanks for posting your video playthrough – we are glad you even found the "easter egg"! ;-)

@AmnonLevi: No time to enemy-fy the viruses, exactly! ^_^'

@novodantis: These are very good suggestions, thanks! We'll keep them in mind for a post-LD release!

A bloody charming entry with a unique concept! :sparkling_heart: As previously mentioned the somewhat automatic steering really helped with otherwise potential annoyances and that popping sound when delivering oxygen was very satisfying indeed!

Really cute and fun game, nice job doing that on Jam. Loved the controls

Yay I finished the game! I love it. The graphics is very cute and the music is nice but as the others have pointed out, it gets a bit repetitive after a while. The idea of the game is very cool, innovative and educational. Gameplay-wise, the control feels good, especially the game does auto-steering for you so you. However, when I went pass the organ and I want to double back, it becomes very hard or impossible. I mean it make sense because blood circulate in a fixed direction. However, in the game it causes annoyance because sometimes I missed the side path and I couldn't go back. With that said, I'm not 100% sure you should remove this mechanics because it does make sense and creates challenge to the player. Also due to this mechanics, the smaller blood cells sometimes get stuck and it takes me a while to find out and I have to backtrack to collect them which is a bit annoying. Would be nice if they auto-follow up when they are off screen.

Overall, it was a very enjoyable game and I re-learned anatomy again. Thanks for that :p

Nice entry. Graphics and sounds/music is amazing. Game is fun to play.

Very cool idea for a game. It was starting to get very hectic (in a good way) when I had to take care of all of the organs. The game looked great too. One thong that was kind of annoying, though, was that it was way too easy to get stuck on stuff. Also, sometimes some of the following red blood cells would stop following.

This was really great. It seems very well polished, especially for a Ludum Dare game. I like the ongoing tutorial as you play, along with the subtle movement pushes in the right direction.

My poor human's body failed her because she didn't get enough oxygen to her stomach.

Such a great game! The design is very well done, from the blood flow encouraging you in the right direction to the visuals, everything is well thought out. The music was nice and fitted well with the rest of the game. The intestines were quite livery, but I'm guessing it's the LD time constraints showing there :P. Some of my red blood cells got caught on some edges in the vein between the stomach and the intestines, but they rejoined as soon as I went back for them, I'm not sure if that's intended. Very good job overall!

This game is lovely ! The graphics and music are so cute, and the whole "scenario" idea is very funny. Movements guided by the stream were nice too :) Very innovative and well done !

A few problems though : on my first try, I lost all the little blood cells (no idea how) and was left with only one... Also the music didn't start, I had to relaunch to hear it. I think the gameplay could have been less repetitive too but that was still fun

Really nice game! I included it in my Ludum Dare 38 compilation video series, if you’d like to take a look :)

What a pretty and fun game! I really enjoyed myself playing it! The graphics and the sound effects were sooo cute, and the whole concept of both the theme and the gameplay was really clever! I also lost some blood cells at some points and I was trying to backtrack and find them. Which really felt like I was a teacher and I had a bunch of kids to look after. So, whether it was intentional or not, it worked really well :P Good job!! :D

Hot damn, that's very cool!
The sounds is cute, the art is good, and the whole idea behind it makes for a great educational game. It was a bit weird that you can lose your students behind, and I somehow wish there was something more interesting to running to a specific place (and not just follow the path), but it is incredibly well made for such a short time. I've seen actual educational ad games that had less work and polish.
So congrats!

Wow this game is really great and i enjoyed it a lot! The game feels very polished with the cute art style, sound effects and music complimenting each other really nicely. The game mechanics are pretty fun, I enjoyed the 'flow' mechanic and thought it was an interesting game element that sometimes worked against you and other times worked with you. The humor and dialogue was well done and a nice touch. I also thought the challenge progression was well done, as you get used to the mechanics and the map it would up to challenge. Really great job!

Gosh, I missed your game that take place in the human body like mine and a few other.

Great execution !
