I just completed the final touches (hopefully) on my first flash game - Bacteria Tower Defense. I'm looking to get some more feedback before I do a final release. If you're kind enough to take a look, I'd appreciate it (as well as any comments). Thanks - I really appreciate it! Please visit www.bacteriatd.com or click on the link below.

What Makes it Different:
While it's a video game, it is based on real life information and players can potentially learn some useful information from playing. In fact, so far, people in the medical field (students as well as professionals) have played it found it a fun and good way to study (or procrastinate) :)

Game Play Features:
You can see a list of the game play features on the website. It has pretty much all the standard Tower Defense game play features but it also has some strategy-enhancing features including Fog of War, Creep Damage, and Situations. Plus, there are over 70 different towers that you can choose from to customize your pharmacy.

I was quickly over-whelmed with the complexity of it all. But I am not a doctor.

It's a little too complicated.. It looks like you used the source code from Desktop Tower Defense, is that right?

Nope - wrote it straight from scratch - took 8 months doing it in my spare time. Hopefully future games won't take as long.

Thanks for the feedback. I've got similar feedback from other people and they wanted a tutorial. I finally put put together a new version on the website and it has a redesigned interface which hopefully makes things easier to see and use. There is also an optional tutorial when you start the game which explains a bit about how to play and the general way to pick the towers. On Basic mode, getting the bacteria resistance info is now free.

You can see it at www.bacteriatd.com (http://www.bacteriatd.com)

You'll need flash 9 to play it as it has some AS3 code in it. Any comments are greatly appreciated. Thanks.
