Deep under the skin the immune system is hard at work!

Nice way to play with the theme. Everything seemed to work well together. The controls took a little bit to get used too. Over all good job, but more sound effects would be great. Having audio feed back, and a clear GUI is important. I had no idea the antibodies could run out.
When you kill a bacteria you regain 1 health and 1 antibody
Very interesting theme interpretation. Controls took a bit to get warmed up to, but it was pretty good once I got into it.
Solid game idea, sort of a topdown shooter tower defense thing.
If the controls were tightened up, and another mechanic or two and this could be cool.
Nice use of the theme, mechanics were a little floaty but was fun to play.
Good idea - I like the game mechanics and music! Sometimes it seemed as though a bacteria could get a cell before you had an opportunity to shoot it, but other than that it was a lot of fun.
In particular, nice one on getting the boss battle and multiplayer working in 48 hours!
Fun game. I had the same problems as CayoDaves but overall enjoyed it. It was cool that you could push the red blood cells to safety as an alternative to shooting bacteria.
Was fumbling around a bit with the controls and purpose of my actions at first, but it became clear pretty quickly. Boss Germ stomped on me. :P
Awesome game concept. Very accurate to the real world. I love that you need to bump into bacteria to get receptors to shoot. However, it is not very clear what the losing or winning conditions are.
The multiplayer feature was pretty fun, the music was really cool too!
Quite good entry, I had small problem with a little "heavy" controls but anyway it is solid game for 48 hours ;)
Nice! Cool music, cool gameplay, I was a bit confused at first about what was happening when i shot a germ, but got it by the time I started my second game, nice work!!
Really clever take on the theme! It was a bit difficult to protect the blood cells near the end when bacteria started spawning almost on top of them, but I managed to make it all the way through. Nice work!
The game is pretty buggy. I went off-screen by accident and got stuck and couldn't move. Objective is clear enough, I guess.

IMPORTANT NOTE: If you want to place in the final results, you NEED votes. The easiest way to get votes is by rating other games. Judging lasts for 3 weeks following the end of Ludum Dare. For best effect, rate 20 games as soon as possible. Rating more games is encouraged.

TEAMS: Teams entering the Jam should pick a single representative to submit your game, or create a team specific account you can share. We currently do not support Team Voting, but sharing an account and together playing and rating games is acceptable.
NOT LOGGED IN?: If you get a message about not being logged in, even though you are, it’s because your web browser cached the non-logged in page. You can fix this by either refreshing your cache or clearing your cache. CTRL+F5 in many browsers. Chrome is a bit more work. Press F12 to enable Developer Mode, then you can right click on the refresh button and select “Empty Cache and Hard Reload”. This option is unavailable if you are not in Developer Mode.
PORTS: Ports to other platforms can be done after the deadline. That said, the sooner you finish your port, the sooner people can play your game, improving your chances of placing in the final results. For best results, provide a Web version of your game, or a Windows version with no dependencies. Also be sure to rate about 20 games to improve your visibility.
MY GAME DOESN’T SHOW UP: If you can’t find your game, it’s usually because the URL to your downloads are missing ‘http://‘. Fix your URLs (http://mysite.com/mygame.zip) and you will show up.
MY GAME CRASHES, IS UNBEATABLE, OR I MADE A TYPO: We allow you to fix crash or win condition bugs after the deadline (in a sense, like “porting” to support more players). We also allow “typo” bugs. I.e. A true that should have been a false, a word that should have been a different word, very tiny changes that you would have caught if you had more sleep. We leave this open to interpretation, but generally speaking your game should be identical to the game you submitted. No new features, just things you messed up last minute. Typos.
Original usage of the theme. The local multilayer was fun.
