And this is it, my first Ludum Dare submit ever. I made it solo, but I prefered to submit it to the jam...'couse in this way I've got more time to polish it :) I try to made a little twist in the theme, so "Beneath the Surface" in my game is the human body. 3 game mode, easy controll, infinite number of levels...and I really hope everybody will enjoy the game, at least a little.

Really good job on the graphics, each of the sprites looks very well done. Playing as a white blood cell was fun, but playing as a virus was a little boring because the white cells didn't make an effort to chase the virus.
Pretty fun actually! I think I liked the Virus mode best! Good job!:)
Funny. In Virus mode enemies can spawn on you, killing you instantly.
Main mode is fun, though.
It took me a second to get what the goal was, but when I did I had fun trying to dodge and weave through the creatures I didn't need in order to get the ones I did.
When I run away from the viruses, I feel concerned and alert! If you continue to develop this, when I play as the white blood cell, I feel confused what I'm supposed to eat.
The creature designs are fine! but it need animations. (but I know how hard is to create animations and all with the LD deadline!)
Quite nice for your first project. What to catch wasn't clear at first but easy to figure out. Nice job!
This is a clever implementation of a simple idea, which is exactly what a ludum dare game should be. Like others have said it took me a minute to figure out what I was supposed to be doing. Also this might work better with tilt controls. You might also want to fix your android link so it's actually a link.
Hi. Like your multiple parts to objective per level, good idea that. Sound not quite up to standard of the visuals IMO. Good job!
Great stuff, I played that for quite a while :) Does become a nice challenge!
I had the same theme twist in mind but couldn't manage to make a game from it. It seems like you did it particularly well, good job !

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.
MORE TIPS AND DETAILS AT THE BOTTOM OF THIS PAGE
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.
Which things you did and did not want run into wasn't very obvious to me at first, but it was a pretty fun game overall.
