How does the game fit the theme?
In 2 ways:
1- I had a very limited time (about 7-8hours) to finish the game, and I thought "nothing can go wrong and I can easily finish the game right?"
2- Snail collects/eats thing on the path and surelly nothing can go wrong

What code and assets did you not make from scratch during the jam (if any)?
I made everything on my own

A fun game that fits the theme well! I was not ready for the speed to pick up like that.

A Pico-8 game in the wild, nice! The game was very fun and has a cute art style, and you did a great job in a very limited time.

My only constructive feedback would be to change the sprites of the “hazardous” collectibles. The skull is alright (duh) but the banana really got me confused because you would associate a delicious fruit with something “positive”, not something that removes your HP. With the fast-paced gameplay in play, I kept grabbing bananas because I subconsciously thought they were “good” pickups.

Changing the sprites so that they reflect what they “do” better would be my suggestion like a banana PEEL instead of a full banana for example.

Overall, good job!

You are totally right! At the time of the jam, this did not struck me for some reason, in post jam version there will be a banana peel for sure.

Anyway thanks a lot for playing the game, and huge thanks for feedback!!

Fun little game!  Interesting mechanic and not easy when the speed is cranked up

Great simple game! Awesome to see you made the assets, they look pretty and enjoyed the audio too! It got quite challenging in the end and I think it would be great to show which elements are good and which elements are bad with more clarity!

Awesome overall job!
