    [Pay-to-Play] I won this game in a giveaway, This is a shooter game, and I really love the graphics cos its like pixel + retro vibe The controls are your WASD to move and LMB to shoot. It is very fun and interesting, and 'runs in your desktop background' or whichever is your 'background' so thats really cool Fun and entertaining, not too challenging but its not too easy too, definitely worth the price while its on sale :) Tags: [Shooter] [Strategy] [Pixel] [Retro] [Fun]

    Desktop Agents - Cov1d-999 is a strange little indie title that transforms a player’s desktop into the battlefield for a bizarre alien virus outbreak. Rather than focusing on cinematic storytelling or complicated mechanics, the game builds its entire identity around humor, desktop interaction, and arcade-style chaos. The concept alone is enough to grab attention because the game does not stay confined inside a standard fullscreen window. Instead, enemies and gameplay elements appear directly over the user’s desktop, creating the illusion that a dangerous infection is spreading across the computer itself. It is a playful and self-aware idea that immediately separates the game from more conventional indie shooters. The overall gameplay is intentionally simple and easy to pick up. Players are tasked with eliminating incoming virus-like enemies before they overrun the screen, and the controls are designed so that anyone can jump into the action within minutes. The arcade structure revolves around surviving increasingly hectic waves while trying to maintain control of the cluttered battlefield. As the stages progress, the pressure intensifies, forcing faster reactions and more careful …

    Game is extremely short, i finished it in 55 minutes. (and i SUCK at games with bullethells in them) To be fair, what you see in the screenshots is basically what you get, the game projects over your desktop as an "antivirus" and you have to shoot everything to delete it. If you enjoy a bullethell game you could get this, but i wouldn't pay full price for it unless you REALLY wanna support the dev(s).
