Immune Defenders Alpha
This is an early prototype for a game that will teach important concepts in Cell Biology through the context of the Immune System. The final game will include multiple levels set in different parts of the body to cover a broad range of cells, as well as anatomy and biomedical interventions.
We're taking a "Fun First" approach to creating the educational experience. Ultimately, if the game feels too much like reading a textbook, many kids and young adults have trouble staying motivated and the gamification aspect is wasted. That's why we layer the learning within a simple and enjoyable game loop. We would very much appreciate your feedback to help guide the future direction of the game - you can either fill out our survey, leave a comment, or email us directly.

great game, just a few suggestions. covid-19 and rhinovirus beeline towards you and i die to them 99% of the time, they should behave more like the ebola virus, targeting endothelial cells and doing damage when they run into you by chance because when theres huge hordes they are impossible to deal with. it would also be great if basophils could push the red blood cells like the endothelial cells because i find the red blood cells crowd me and prevent my wbcs from reaching the enemies
Thanks for the suggestions! I will make those viruses a bit less heat seeking on the next update. The Histamine from Basophils works to dilate endothelial tissue but I’ll try to come up with a mechanic that makes sense to reduce RBC crowding
Noice game
Thanks!
