It's that time again! A new Experimental Game for you to test out. Make sure to download and tell me how you like it! And check out all the other cool games at Experimental Blog: Trying to create fun

Here is the breakdown.

You are a parasite - but unfortunately, you aren't the only one. Destroy all other parasites to safe the host (and thus your life)

You play as the array of hexagons. Move with the mouse. Rotate with the left and right mouse buttons.



It's easy to kill the small baddies: Simply move a hexagon with the same color underneath them. They will die, you get poitns and the host will feel better.
But make a mistake and parts of you will die, you'll become smaller, which is not what you want!

The game includes two gamemodes. Survival mode throws new small baddies at you constantly, and its up to you to destroy them and grow. This mode will keep track of the time you survive. Anyone who manages four minutes or more?.

In normal mode, you'll also face these baddies, but every now and then, a boss will appear. Its up to you to find out how to beat them! There are two bosses in all.



These baddies will drain the health of the host, so better make sure to destroy them quickly!

If the either the host or you die (which happens when the red hexagon is destroyed), it's game over. Good luck!

Thanks to the following people:

The Beatsuite - the "beep" sound you constantly hear is from them. Found it via Flashkit

Kihaku - he is hosting the game (again). Not only does he make games out of pure awesomeness, but he also hosts all my games.

Turrican, Kihaku (again) and more - for testing the game.

Dang-.-
nearly...-.-

All right: critique:
... too adictive -.-

compliments:
WOW!
guys... if you don'T stop pumping out adictive games like that, I'll never finish any game for my self, cause I'll be playing yours all the time
no... joking... but this game's great! simple, easy to learn, and great fun!

"you'll become smaller, which is not what you want!"
but the smaller you are the easier it is

Amazing!
I'm jealous ... I wanna be able to finish cool games like this one too!!

I found a bug!I found a bu-ug!!!!!



The white didn't stop to increase-decrease and didn't dissappear and didn't shot any small dots anymore...

I'm not sure about wether I like it or not, I only saw the white dot boss enemy for now. The white dot boss is good.

I'm unsure about the grafigs, the mechanical and the organic don't fit sooo good.

The programming is great.

really innovative idea =D

i would call it the "snake"-principle~
the bigger you get, the harder it is^^

whyever~ i like it when the camera zooms out^^"

imho you need music, or else the slower heartbeat gets me to fall asleep XD
then later i paniced when the heartbeat got faster and faster cause i havent killed them fast enough XD

go on you idea-whore =D(to use a dA-expression =P)

It's again a nice mini game Error
You and your ceative mind are genius

Cheers

Thanks for the replies so far! Good to know that some of you enjoy my games
Pappenheimer - I have to look into that, although currently there is not so much free time, no?


On to something different. I hope I don't come across like a total idiot, but, honestly, why is this?




As you can cleary see, the amount of replies (no, I haven't counted my own posts) is decreasing everytime. Judging from that, I'd probably get two replies for the next game and about zero replies for the one following it. I am aware that these extrapolation goes a little far, but I'd really like to know why these games always get so few replies?
I always encourage bad comments as well, so that can't be it. The amount of views is pretty high most of the time, so that can't be it either. So? Do people hate me or what?

It's no fun making games if nobody plays them

maybe it just shows that everyone plays it and is too busy to reply
and someone who makes such great games can't be a total idiot

it is a very great game as always, I played it for hours today and I am already excited what your next creation will be

i was wondering the same.
For me, Error014's game always inspired me and his innovation and concepts are just too great, he surprises me all the time with absolutely new fantastic ideas.

Even when i created my Angelas World i wanted great ideas as he has.
i appreaciate all the comments i got for my game, but i can't understand why error doesn't get the same amount... i mean, i played his games longer than mine xD.

i don't tell everyone now to comment, but i would like WHY noone comments to his projects :x Are they too long? Too boring? What is it?
Is it cause he doesn't show a great shader overloaded texture with normalmapping, so you can spam 230982983 pages with "OMFG LAWLZ GIMME YOUR CHILD" comments? :x i really can't get it... sorry, shouldnt sound offensive.

Please give the games a try and tell him what you think.

I couldn't find the dl link on the page, and many times I browse the forums I am in a rush and cant find the link. I'm not saying put a big butto nthat says "download" but hey some direction would be nice.

my time is 3:12
Simple but fun. It was pleasant to me (my small daughter too, it even has stopped the fights with Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles for this)
btw, never played your other games, Error014. It's my fault
