You are a sentient AntiVirus application! Installed by Grandma's doting grandson, you are in place to prevent Grandma's PC adventures from ending in disaster. 

Inspired by WarioWare, the goal is to be a series of viruses and threats as mini-games to be dealt with to prevent CPU usage rising too high and causing the PC to halt.


Limited development happened, the intent is to flesh it out further such that there is a cascade of windows opening upon task failures causing PC usage to skyrocket and slow down the PC, making further tasks harder.

I really like the concept of having to beat a bunch of mini games with time pressure as they keep popping up. The way the windows move around to dodge you is also pretty funny and adds challenge. However, I couldn't figure out how to interact with most of the mini games. I got my mouse in the yellow circle multiple times but nothing seemed to happen even after clicking around. The win condition was also somewhat confusing on some of them and others I couldn't figure out how to interact with at all.

Thanks for trying out our game! The conditions displayed in the mini games are the conditions that you have to meet to be able to close the containing window. Understandable that it wasn't clear, given how far we got with it, with more time this will be something to fix up! Thanks again for checking it out (:
