As someone who tried to get through class wasting tie on snake, this was right in my lane! Great work!

What a cool twist on the classic snake game. I had a great time playing it.

A charming little game. I really liked the little twist with the colours you implemented into the original snake, it allows for more complex gameplay and is more fun to play!

Keep up the good work!

Thanks so much!! I'll check out your game when I'm home from work

Thanks, I hope you enjoy it!

I can't play your game as I am on Mac, it looks fun, well done!

Developer(+1)

No worries, thanks for commenting anyway! Hoping to get a web build going next year

Hey, thank you for checking out our game! I really liked your artwork and it helped fit the arcade look for an arcade classic! I also thought it was very clever using different colors to overlap, really makes it feel chaotic and engaging. I could see this being top rated game with a banger soundtrack!

It's unfortunate that you were unable to add some audio and sfx to the game, but I still think that it was pretty cool! It's a nice spin on snake, and I had to be wise with my movements. Great game! <3

Good job on the game, the art is beautiful, and I love the spin on the classic worm game, very well done

Game was Nice but it lacks music and sfx

Haha. Classic snake game with a creative mechanic. Love it.

This is a super creative take on snake! There's actually quite a bit of strategy involved. Unfortunate about the sfx and music as it really could've benefited from it, but given the time constraints, this is a phenomenal game!

Developer

Thanks for checking it out!

This is ridiculously good for how simple it is.
It is surprisingly addictive, and it achieves the "just one more try" feeling.

It's a shame about the music and SFX (but I understand).
I think just 1 looping track and 2 sounds (1 for fruit eating; and 1 for death) would improve the feel a lot.

Developer

You're so right about the SFX! I was so proud of my sound work in the game jam last year, I can't believe I ignored it so hard this time. Thanks for playing!

The mechanic is awesome, challenging and full of suprise. I really like the changing color thing, it just add so much possibility to the game!

Submitted(+1)

This is a fun but challenging game! I love all of the hidden modes, and it has a very nostalgic feel. Well done!

Submitted

Love the little guy, very funny looking! Didn't get very far because I'm not very good at it, but it felt very polished, simple but can get very challenging.

Developer

Yeah, always forget I should tune down the difficult for game jams! Thanks so much for playing. If anyone else is reading this comment and struggling, try using code SLO-DOWN. Might help a little.
