Works way better when downloaded.  Like the idea. A little glitchy, I seemed to get stuck sometimes.  Needs more levels and fixed glitches.  Nice art work.

Really cool idea! I really like the snake movements not being tied to a grid. If I could give some feedback, would be that sometime the camera feels a bit restricted, maybe have the ability to zoom out to see more of the level? But overall great idea well implemented, good job!

Developer

I like your suggestion about being able to control the camera's zoom. I'll look into that for a post Jam version. Thank you for playing our game.

A bit buggy but really creative level design, good job :D

little buggy and i got stuck quite often, but a really nice idea!

Really liked the concept and the level design, and the theme is well respected! I would have liked to hear a bit of SD, and maybe more variety in the music, otherwise, well done!

nice concept! the snake glitches a little, but owerall I like the level design!

Cool idea, I'd like to see a little more polish though, especially with the camera and with the collision of the player's head against walls.

But overall nice job :)

Understandable. I definitely wish we had the time to fix some of those details, but alas this is but the nature of a game jam. Thank you for playing our game.

I like the concept of the game, it is a good interpretation of the theme

Really nice game.

Yet another take on the Ouroboros idea, love it let's spread the snake religion 

Developer

Indeed. You must now worship the Orouboros. I liked your implementation of the idea, it was a neat take.

Really cool idea. It looks quite polished, the camera was a bit jiggly which in turn made the game a little more tiring than it should have, but I'm still  quite impressed of what you've achieved!

Super cool idea. I really like the art style. It's a really interesting take on snake and a really good game overall. Well done.

Very clever twist (ha!) on Snake - pulls on that nostalgia while offering something fresh.

Developer

Omg, thank you! I loved playing Crashlands as a teen, and Crashlands 2 now as an adult. You guys are a real gem in the indie design space, and one of my biggest game dev inspirations. I love your stuff so much! What an honour :D

This is a very interesting idea, and I like the way you implemented the theme. Well done!

 Seems interesting.

Really cool twist on the old snake game formula, here you actually need to eat your tail to progress!
The puzzle aren't too hard to solve but they're still very satisfying to complete, great job!

Loved playing the game! I somehow managed to wrap myself up into the wall xD

Developer

Incredible, amazing, we love it! Glad you enjoyed it. The movement is very satisfying.

Great concept, loved the spin and want to see more! Enjoyed the music and the art work.

It got a bit frustrating that you had to hit the very end of your tail as i sometimes got stuck on just the pixel before that, resulting in a restart.
