I like the concept and the mechanics of this.

Really liked this, even with its flaws (slow, shop seems to take more money that the upgrades cost, starts lagging when you get deep). I'd love an update with crazier upgrades and more polish. Also I realised that I would still love myself even after I turn into a worm

Great game, the gameplay loop is surprisingly addictive for being so simple, release for mobile and you'd easily make a few quid.

interesting game, I wish there sound effects, and as someone already said, esc as continue it's convinient

Nice game. I reached 2500m. Interesting balance of food spawn. I can feel the worm's hunger :)

Nice game. Good minimalistic graphics. But using esc as continue button isnt good idea. It really gets in the way when you play in full screen mode. I think it would be better to use z and x or select the button with arrows.

Thanks for playing. I realised this after submitting. I'm not sure if I can edit my submission during the rating period, but I will be changing it.

Like the concept, but I fell that it's really slow. Sometimes especially on the slow sections, I just waiting.

Developer

Yeah you're right, it does feel quite slow. The speed upgrades don't feel significant either.  Thanks for the suggestion, I'll update that in the post-jam version.
