How to Play

You control a virus fighting off iterations of enemies.

You don't play the virus. You program it.
This isn't about fast reactions. It's about building behavior. Each choice in your AI logic is a mutation. Each wave? A test of your design. In this game, you're not the pilot. You're the code.

Each iteration, your virus runs a customizable AI logic loop—a series of actions and conditions that you define before the iteration begins. This loop is built using a simple drag-and-drop system, letting you chain together things like:

DONT FORGET TO CLICK "CONNECT TO VIRUS"

• Defend
• Attack
• If Conditions
• Wait Conditions

Your virus starts with just a basic loop and one action, but as you survive, you’ll earn mutation points and unlock new logic pieces through an upgrade tree system. Each wave is a test of how well you’ve designed your loop. Once your loop finishes, it resets and starts again... over and over... until you're destroyed—or break the cycle.

Note: due to a bug, mutation points weren’t rendering correctly during the jam. So we gave a few points for free just so players can still try out upgrades and explore the system properly.

Controls

Mouse

• Left Click – Place actions or conditions into your virus loop
• Del – Remove an element or disconnect logic
• Drag – Connect blocks in the logic loop
• Middle Mouse Button – Drag and zoom in the upgrade tree

Keyboard

• Ctrl + Alt + A – Delete all connections in the loop builder
• Ctrl + X – Delete all connections for the currently highlighted block

We didn’t get to polish everything due to time, and a few bugs are still lurking around. But we hope you enjoy experimenting with the system and seeing the direction it was heading! Thanks so much for playing :)
