beatiful and simple great game
Simple but entertaining... everything’s very straightforward, but I definitely had fun. :) Keep it up!
It's an overall really good concept, there's a good amount of nuance on the parasite removal, that unfortunately wasn't made clear at any point so I had to learn it myself after a few repeats but it was enjoyable nonetheless. This could definitely be turned into a more expanded arcade like game with different tools and rules for individual parasite types. My only question is why are the teeth bits on the outside if they're attached to the patient? 🤔
Lol good game!
An interesting concept. Good pacing and very satisfying. The worm animations and sound design were executed very well. I like that it gradually gets harder. I would like to see in a future version the usage of different tools to keep things interesting. Overall nice game!
Bro nice job with this game. Short, grotesque, and obsessive. Me and my sister played it multiple times to see if there was a trick for it sometimes fast and snappy worked and sometimes slow and steady. I feel like you could flesh this game out further just for the fun of it and because it's a pretty niche idea. Love it, can't wait for more!
Thank you for the kind words! I am so happy you enjoyed it and shared it with your sister too! I will be working on a more polished expanded release in the future. Leaning into the things you enjoyed about it. The removal mechanic def punishes you for pulling too fast too early. It hurts the patient. But eventually the worm loosens its grip. that said removal always does some damage... to go with the theme 😅
Nice little game!
I sometimes struggled with picking up parasites, even though I'm right on one, I solved this by moving to a different one and then coming back to the broken one. I love the concept though, it definitely felt gruesome ripping out these little parasites
my highscore was 10
Thank you for the feed back! I am going to work on the hit detection in the next iteration. I think the way i am doing the coliders and the angles miss and grab another closer worm. Def something to work on. Thank you for playing!
Somehow I was drawn to this even before my queue - very disgusting idea and extremely well executed. I've never had so much fun extracting blood worm parasites with salad tongs before!
Give the people what they want amiright?
I got a record of 5, great idea!
Awesome thanks for playing!
My record was 11!
11 is amazing! I need to add more worms now haha
Hi! Interesting idea, my record is 7
Very good score! Thanks for playing!
Hey! My record is five patients saved, so I don't think I'd make a very good doctor! Nice game!
Thanks! The diffulty ramps up as the score increases! You did well!
