Atherosclerosis, a cardiovascular disease caused by the accumulation of plaque in arteries, affects 4.6 million people in the U.S. This build-up
of plaque, which is primarily composed of fat, cholesterol, and calcium, hardens arteries and can induce ischemia, the impediment of blood supply.
Depending on the organ which a completely obstructed artery is no longer supplying with oxygen, this can result in a heart attack, stroke, or death.

Game Instructions:
Use the arrow keys to navigate the oxygen-delivering erythrocyte, or red blood cell, around the arterial plaque for thirty seconds.
If the erythrocyte hits a plaque acculmulation, ischemia will develop.
Press the right or left arrow key to start, and ENTER to play again.
