If you dont feel like reading too much skip to the code block for most important infos.
The concept :
I am going to fill in the story piece by piece as i release the demos. This, is the first release just so you guys know what im working towards!The title : antisense
Quote:A DNA sequence is called "sense" if its sequence is the same as that of a messenger RNA copy that is translated into protein. The sequence on the opposite strand is called the "antisense" sequence.
...
antisense RNA sequences are produced, but the functions of these RNAs are not entirely clear.
A diary, journal of discovery. Dated 28th feb 2008
Patient file : John Watson-CrickThe vacant cell screams echoes of silence. Is this where it all ends?
Its cold in here, but my mind is racing. I have had nothing to eat for over 160 days...maybe they think im dead. My DNA abnormalities might have fooled them but i understand my predicament. i must escape this containment, i must defeat this curse.
A few side notes. this entire game is based on the real known and proper research of DNA. All characters, names, even the data you play with in game is based on reality, whats living inside you now. its fascinating stuff, and im pretty certain is gonna make a lot more interesting games after this mini game!Human DNA is based on proteins and compunds with hydrogen base pairs. But this patient showed extreme pale skin as a symptom of an irregular DNA genome. This cannot be, as this breaks the rules of what we know. The patient DNA has an element found in RNA, which subsequently breaks the understanding of our own DNA. Below i found this journal on the internet
"ref : Uracil is a pyrimidine which is common and naturally occurring.[1] Uracil was originally discovered in 1900. It was isolated by hydrolysis of yeast nuclein that was found in bovine thymus and spleen, herring sperm, and wheat germ.[2] Uracil is a planar, unsaturated compound that has the ability to absorb light[3]"
This last property is worrying the team and I, is this why his skin is near white in colour? Further examination will be carried out. Patient is in holding until further breakdown of the DNA can be performed.
Im really enjoying this, and will continue a series of game based on this, i find it to be quite the fantastical approach to gameplay.
Gameplay hints and more story :
Quote:= nanobots extract your dna information and collect fragments of the molecular structure of your bodys proteins as resources for building new dna bases.
= these resources are processed into dna bases on a time basis and are collected for rebuilding the final hybrid genome.
Code: Select all
This is the code block of important infos.
The game might need vc redist,

How to play?
I think the readme tells you im not sure, but its simple. use the +/- signs on the right hand side to assign the creation of proteins (Which collect on the left top) and then u can assign nanobots to make it faster.
LEFT CLICK : Add,
RIGHT CLICK , Subtract.
Once you have proteins you spawn them into the DNA builder at the bottom by the buttons on the left top. There was a large series of restrictions but because of the time i had i got owned.
Build a character, using the DNA builder by building proteins (right).
So : Build proteins on the right, assign them to the builder using the left buttons... When the grid is full, you will be show your character stats.This is far from complete. i am just posting cos i will be motivated to finish this. then i will release the source as well, with all elements. For now its "MINIMUM" of playable, it was for a competition and i got sick 2 days before the closing day, so i finished what i cud to have a "game" and not a hud lol. It took me about 8 days to finish this to where it is now, including thinking/design time on the story and all artwork.
Thanks to varmint for helping me a lot, and to game.dev community for feedback, and thanks to my roommate eric for his input in the counting algorithms. D:
Thanks for looking, soon my new site will hold all my downloads so it will be a central place for all my projects
