About

NOTE:  This game controls your mouse, which means it's possible (probable) that you'll accidentally click something outside the game while playing in the browser. For this reason, I recommend you download the Windows or Mac version for a better experience.

MALWARE DETECTED!

Made in 48 hours as a solo submission for the 2020 GMTK GameJam. The theme of the Jam is "Out of Control".

A notorious hacker has infected your system with malware! Take control of your computer by zapping the annoying popups, but beware... the hacker has taken control of your mouse!

HOW TO PLAY:

Zap malware popups as fast as you can!

The hacker has taken control of your mouse! At any time, they may:

  • Invert your mouse axis.
  • Move your mouse to another position.
  • Adjust the mouse sensitivity.
  • Move popups away from you.

Each open malware popup consumes one unit of memory. If you run out of memory, your system will crash and you lose the game. You've got to zap them fast to keep it under control!

Zapped malware goes into the quarantine. Remember to purge the quarantine regularly, as there is a limit to how much it can contain.

Each malware purged from the quarantine will earn you one point.

Have fun and Happy Zapping!
