It doesn't always take *all* your tags, depends how long you can stay in proximity. If you skim the outside it'll probably get a few, but not all!

I have pushed a fix which means that the virus moves at the same speed for everyone now. I hope this is okay.\r\n\r\n*UPDATE 2* - Discovered the game was lagging very badly on Chrome today. I killed Chrome completely and started it again and suddenly it was fine. No idea.\r\n\r\n*UPDATE 3* - Post Compo version added.

Adds lighting effects to help indicate how much trouble you might be in and it generally gets harder the longer you survive so there's now progression, but it's basically teh same game. \r\n","title":"In The Blood"}
