A LiNK CMGT Gamejam game.
Timelimit: 48 hours
Gamejam Theme: Slow

Virusses tend to slow down computers and we used that to our inspiration. The player is an anti-virus knight that has to eliminate all the virusses that are in the computer. By doing so, the player makes the computer go faster as well as themselves, leaving the slow state.

Control Scheme:

A/D = Moving left/right;

Spacebar = Jumping;

Right mouse button = Attack;

Q = Select Slashing Attack;

E = Select Shooting Attack;

The Optimistic Pessimists:
