Only after a while of playing and some tries, i realized this is kindoff the old snake game.
Btw i really liked the little haters/demons designs, AMAZING WORK!

Ah, welcome to game jams first-timer! Great entry for a simple game.

Developer

Thank you.

this is a really fun twist for a snake game!

personally tho, I would make the player faster, other than that, good job!

Developer(+1)

I'm thinking the same. But since this is the first time I use Gamemaker, then I limit myself to what I can do. At least for now. Thanks for playing it.

Its a really fun game,similar to the snake game, I really liked the art , good job

Developer(+1)

Thank you. Kenney really have nice solution for pixel graphics. Grass tiles assets from https://ninjikin.itch.io/grass  also great.

Much like Snake, it's a very simple yet fun game! 

It's a cool change to have the followers move freely, though I definitely think the map size made the difficulty curve a bit too slow, as opposed to the purely grid based movement. I would honestly keep the follower movement and add obstacles around the map that only you can collide with.

I had a good time playing! Good job!

Developer

Thank you!

i actually liked the fact that it wasn't a grid-based snake game it felt interesting but since the map was pretty big it felt a bit too free, some obstacles would have been perfect but definitely a fun first game. think i got upto 32

Developer

Some obstacles will surely make this game more challenging. Thanks for the feedback!

Submitted

would love some feedback on our game too :)

This is a pretty interesting concept, I will say that it doesnt feel as fun to move as Snake, but I still think it's a cool spin it

Developer

I intended to make a Snake clone, actually. But when I learn how to do things in Gamemaker, I don't know why the Snake tutorials I saw were not working as I intended. The ones that work instead was a tutorial that simply turn my project into slither clone. I learn to accept it and then release it :D

Cool game.

Cool spin on classic Snake! Well done for your first game jam, keep up the good work :)

Developer(+1)

Thank you

I loved that while this started looking like a version of Snake, the chaining mechanic, and therefore the movement of the followers was very different. Perhaps if you decide to work on the game further you could add more spring coill tension, and use mechanics with it

Developer(+1)

Thanks. I need to learn more about Gamemaker before adding more mechanisms into this game.

Submitted(+1)

Charming little game! The background/island is really pleasing to the eyes, like a pretty carpet.

My only complaint is that the game is very easy until you collect quite a few followers.

Developer

Thank you. I intended this game to be a relaxing experience. However, the challenge is that the larger head and the movement of the body parts make it difficult to play. The head could hit the body at any time, stopping the game.

Submitted(+1)

I got 48! Its kind of easy once you get the strategy right, sounds are nice and overall a nice game

Developer

That's quite high! I can't even get that much. Thanks for playing my game.

It's a twist on a snake genre, with added setting that is quite fitting because the whole Jam is Youtube adjacent, good job

Developer

Thanks!

This is a funny and interesting take on the classic snake genre gj man God bless =)

Thank you

Very nice! I always like a good snake like game, and I like how I can control the guy  without automoving like in other snake-like games. Overall pretty good!

Developer

Thanks! I'm glad you enjoy it.

This is great! I like how you have remolded Snake into a game that fits the jam! Well done!

If you have time, it would be awesome if you could check out my game aswell :D

Developer

Thank you.
