what a trip. wild visuals, dreamy music, and fabulous mouth noises. the gameplay is slow paced, but it’s a nice contemplative mood. I can’t believe you got The Rock to star in this. his resolution is so high I can literally count the hair follicles on his bald head. the game lags whenever he’s on the screen. it’s perfect :’)
bug report: hitting ESC freezes/crashes the game (using Firefox on Windows)
I liked the puzzle aspect of splitting and needing to keep all alive. I felt at times like I wanted a way to control how far apart they were from each other because sometimes the food was in a spot that would just force me to lose one. Very strange and odd atmosphere, but I feel like that is what you were going for, so you definitely hit it :)
As soon as I saw my snake split into 2 I knew I'd like this game. Very cool concept and has quirky vibe to it. The game is explained very well by the Dwayne cameo. Very strang3 but very c00l.
This is a very strange and fun experience!
For some reason (I imagine the image resolution) the game gets quite slow around Mr. Rock's head.
Congratulations on the game, I had a lot of fun!
Very nice !
Sometimes, food is hidden inside the huge head. Hard to survive in this world. :(
Very cool! The only thing that caused a performance spike was the ENORMOUS DWAYNE THE ROCK JOHNSON HEAD! Which I guess is to be expected :) Literally anything else onscreen and the game was buttery smooth.
Super fun. Congrats!
I wanted to rate you 20 in originality, but 5 was the max :(
fiummmmmmmmmmm
fun game :) I liked the dialogue when you are about to eat things. the dwayne cameo was funny too.
Loved the sound effects and art! How did you handle the evolution if you don't mind me asking? It looks like the model changes kind of randomly, which is neat.
Thanks! The lil snake guys spawn in a random radius from the center. Those points get added to an array and I get the convex hull of those points. Using the convex hull I draw the polygon 2d. I also draw a line 2d on the border, and interpolate additional points in-between so I can add some random zig-zag to the edges.
Really cool and funny! It was a great experience and it's very juicy. The gameplay could be more polished but it doesn't look like that's too much of the intention lol
Trippy! It felt like I was playing Snake on LSD. Really fluid controls, and graphics that are both charming and quirky.
Sometimes I got a bit frustrated as the food I wanted was currently being covered by an extremely large enemy and I couldn't do anything about it, but otherwise really fun
Kinda cool and psychadelic version of the first spore stage.
I enjoyed it. I liked the cell division at the beginning. I like the movement and the selfmade sound effects. I especially like the turbo zuuuuuum shruuum
I think the later stages of the game get sadly a little bit anti climatic. you get very slow and you don`t have enough turbo power, your collider gets very big, you zoom out very far and there is not enough food to keep you going with turbo.
Would have loved it if it escalates more, but it feels like a snail later on.
I think some of the pickups or the items floating around are to far out of context for my personal taste.
Good work though!
i wish i could enjoy this more. for one, i’m confused by the evolution mechanics visuals. i think those visuals made the game lag really badly for me :/ it’s charming in a quirky ironic way, but it’s hard to play. - ANTIHERO Shiloh
