Virus, How it works

I'm thinking of a game (platformer) where you get different powers by killing off viruses. I need viruses I could use, so far -

How it works-


New batch!

Wario virus: Get his popular arm bash ability.
Blink virus: Teleport to the other side of the screen.
Eno virus: Inflate to go up, time limited.
Springer virus: Bounce!
Seaman virus: Get the ability to dash on water.
Down virus: All your abilites go down (not all viruses are good )
Klikman virus: Get the ability to point at enemies and shock them.
Grabber virus: Get to grab high items and ropes.
Glutton virus: Eat up to 3 enemies, including bosses (very rare near bosses)
Reverse virus: Inverses your controls.
Slash virus: Swords!
SVH virus: Get the ability to smash through everything with laughter! (very rare)


Wheel virus: Kind of like car Yoshi from YI.
Rocket virus: Fart to get a small launch.
Barfup virus: Use barf balls as attack. Strong but short.
Motor virus: Use it to speed through areas!
Para virus: Take out a small parachute to fall slower and further.
Sling virus: Shoot yourself a bit further (aiming with YI style shooting)
IHateBugs virus: Acts like beam abiltiy in Kirby games, isn’t very strong though.
Stab virus: Stab stuff.
Random virus (or virus virus): Get a random ability, kind of rare
Bam virus: Drop bombs that explode after 3 seconds (three bombs max)
Cowboy virus: Like Barfup, but shoots further, faster, but is wayyy weaker
Fire virus: Eluminate dark areas and burn enemies doing so.
Stick virus: Use it to stick on walls, and jump from a wall to another.
Screamer virus: Scream out loud to beat all enemies around! Very rare.
Regime virus: Squish yourself vertically or horizontally to fit through small areas
Seedboy virus: plant seeds to grow stalks to climb high!
Block virus: Upgrades defense to be invincible, but you walk a lot slower.
Stone virus: You walk slowly, but you can roll into a ball to squish all in your passage

Please, if you could suggest a name change or a new virus, tell me There are cameos too... Sasuke=Screamer

Those are - for want of a better word - cute. Nice job, even though they're so simple. :}

Made to be simple

Heheh, cool idea and cute little pictures of the viruses. *thinks of some ideas*

Brr Virus (Ice Based)
Boing Virus (Bouncing/Spring Based
Buzz Virus (Electricity Based)
Blink Virus (Teleportation Based)
Balloon Virus *shot*

...I just realised all these virus names begin with B o.o Weird... Meh, they're not very good ideas, but there they are if you want them.

Those are pretty kooky designs, cowboy one rocks, and some nice ideas too. (I can't read what virus it is between regime and block though)

You totally need a Samurai Virus!

Ooh interesting! Seems you are going for a comedic effect as well.

Screamer virus = Sasuke? o.o

Maybe. 'cause Bam reminds me of Bungalo and the cowboy of JBL.

What does the Seedboy Virus do?

Read his post.

I love these kind of things. Great job.

I'm guessing that's supposed to be the top of a bomb, but yeah it does look kind of like a fez hat. o.o

I got an idea!

Pop Up Virus: Allows you to perform a vertical jab, which can allow you to cling to ceilings.

Screamer Virus wins.
This sounds like it'd be an awesome game :D
Looks awesome too'

Bam Virus looks awfully like me!

Awesome!

i like the ideas! Awesome sasuke


may not fitt a game but a Soveryhappy Virus

The idea sounds pretty sweet if you ask me, and the virus designs look kind of cute

About ideas....

Mutant Virus: Very very very VERY rare, and once used you'll understand why. Turns you into a huge creature that smashes through everything, climbs walls and is practically invincible....for a short time.

Aero Virus: Gives you wings to fly around

Glutton Virus: Makes your stomach grow huge jaws that devour all baddies in the screen. Only can be used once

Stink Virus: Makes you shoot toxic gas that kills enemies and causes blocking plants to rot

Awesome stuff you got here O:


I like the way they were drawn and everything, looking forward to this.

JBL VIRUS

screamer virus is dfgfsdfgsdfgsdf
