It's a microbe-eat-microbe world! Play as a little amoeba (meeb) looking for food in a pond and avoiding infection by viruses. Use the arrow keys to move your meeb. Other microbes will spawn in every so often; move your meeb over them to eat them and gain points. Try to get as high a score as you can! THE MICROBES Normal Bacillus: Green rod-shaped bacterium. Spawns frequently from the beginning. Moves slowly for several seconds before despawning, gives 1 point when eaten. Speedy Bacillus: Blue rod-shaped bacterium with flagella. Spawns occasionally once you reach 10 points. Moves quickly across the screen before despawning, gives 5 points when eaten. Giant Virus: Red hexagonal virus coated in hairlike fibers. Spawns frequently once you reach 15 points. Tumbles around in place before eventually despawning, ends the game when eaten.
All art and code by me. This game is currently a work in progress, and feedback and ideas are welcome. I plan to add: -More microbes with different behaviours -A cloud high score variable -Might tweak the spawn frequency, behaviour, and point value of the microbes? -Possibly adding more biomes? Be aware that sometimes if you press too many arrow keys at once, the turning animation stops working for the rest of the game. I'm not exactly sure why, and I've done what I can to mitigate it, but if anyone has ideas for how to solve this bug(?) I'd be glad to try them out.
