Controls

  • ✚/Tap: Shoot left, right, up, and/or down

Timing Display

  • Perfect!/Ace!?: The virus is stabbed by a fork. The doctor gives a V sign and blushes. If done in succession, a star appears next to the doctor as he blushes.
  • Early!/Late!?: The virus is stabbed at its edge.
  • Miss...?: The virus gets through and kills the yellow organism, causing the doctor to turn blue in shock. In the Trials and the Endless Game, losing all organisms causes the game to be over, otherwise they respawn.
