Retrovirus is a 2D puzzle-platformer game about a virus on a quest to infect the host body. As a virus, the player needs to mutate, evade deadly obstacles and solve puzzles to reach the nucleus of the cell.

This game was made as part of the Rapid Prototyping Development course at the Centre for Entertainment Arts.
