The idea with the RNA creates a curious and dynamic gameplay. The menu and interface look neat, the sprites and effects are soft and beautiful. It's great that there is a rating of players. Inertia during the movement greatly increases the difficulty, and this is good. The music is pleasant and, in my opinion, fits the strange world of the game.\n\nA few remarks. I think that when firing at a virus, you need to get into it too many times to kill. Also I didn't understand what exactly gives skill \"attack\". It seemed to me that after I received this, I killed the virus when I collided with it, but not always. And I think that colliding with White Blood Cell reduce too many hp after dialing 10 RNA. And finally sometimes I stuck to the walls of the level and could not budge. I did not understand why it happened.\n\nSurprisingly, as @juri noticed, I really came up with an idea for the game, very similar to yours. But my game is not so polished :smile: Anyway well done!
