Chemtrails by DarrenH
Chemtrails is a local multiplayer game for 1-4 players where you must minimise the spread of disease with your chemtrails.
Move with WASD/Arrows/D-Pad and try box in the matching disease.
Space/A is submit
Escape/Start is back - (esc is a bad hotkey for a web build as I found out...)
If you want to play with controllers you need to set the controller number to the player number.

The single player is quite hard. It either needs careful planning or is unbeatable as of now.
I tried playing multiplayer on my own as well, but it's impossible to independently coordinate both players. If I press "A" for one, I automatically end up pressing the left arrow button for the other as well xD
Anyway, I think you intended it to be Vs, but it looks like it could be a cool CoOp-MP, since for example blue colored diseases erase the green player, so blue should be helping out green and vice versa to keep both diseases in check.
Overall a good entry, just a bit too difficult to beat.
Hard when solo, haven't tried it with other persons, but maybe a little bit easier haha
