A browser game in which you are a white blood cell hunting for the one infected red blood cell. The infected cell uses a evolutionary algorithm to gradually adopt strategies that work best against you, so the game should get harder as you get better.

Game Overview:

You are the white blood cell, and one of the red blood cells is infected with a pathogen. Your mission: find and blast the infected red blood cell.

If the infected cell touches you, you lose. If the 3 minute timer runs out, you lose. If you run out of ammo before hitting the infected cell (you only get two shots!), you lose.

While the other red blood cells move entirely randomly, the infected cell wants to to infect you through direct contact. However, it may try to blend in with the other cells rather than always making a bloodline right for you (unless it's running out of time...).

Since you only have two shots, make them count, and note that you can't fire your second shot until your first hits its target.

This game uses a genetic algorithm to update the infected red blood cell's "strategy," so it should improve its skills as you do.
