NimbleGames Launches Demo for Minimalist Incremental Game, Do Not Feed The Virus

February 24, 2026 – Indie game studio NimbleGames has released a playable demo for its new incremental game, Do Not Feed The Virus, as part of Steam Next Fest. The demo is currently available on Steam and will remain accessible after the festival concludes.

Growth, Expansion, and Consumption

Do Not Feed The Virus is described as a minimalist, run-based incremental game where players seize on the role of a growing organism with a singular goal: to acquire bigger. Players utilize mouse-only controls to destroy clusters and gather biomass, expanding their colony across an abstract environment. As the organism grows, players can recruit smaller units to automate resource collection, creating a satisfying progression loop.

The game’s design prioritizes clarity, momentum, and visual appeal, offering a clean and readable growth experience. According to NimbleGames, there are no punishing mechanics or complex management systems – just continuous growth.

Key Features

• Mouse-only, accessible controls
• Continuous growth through incremental progression
• Expanding colony system for automation
• Minimalist 2D abstract art style
• Run-based structure with steady upgrades
• Designed for both short and extended play sessions

Community and Inspiration

The game recently received coverage from incremental game-focused YouTuber, Idle Cub, who highlighted the game’s satisfying sense of progression. Watch the video here.

Do Not Feed The Virus draws inspiration from growth-driven games, including black hole-style incremental titles and Nodebuster, focusing on clear visual feedback, steady scaling, accessible mechanics, and momentum-based design.

Release and Pricing

The full release of Do Not Feed The Virus is planned for late March or April 2026 on PC via Steam, with a projected price of approximately $5 USD. The game is currently available in English.
