The game is fun and the concept is also interesting, but i feel like the visual clutter is a bit too much when like there are too many things on the screen like the snake blood or whatever and the little things that come out of the snake's body etc, and also the marker on top of the player.

Suggestions:

 The marker could be like a starter thing that displays brightly at the start like for a few seconds, but later it could be a bit smaller or less of a distraction as it blocks the powerups or whatever that we get sometimes. Also it would be nice to know what we are getting, like the abilities and how they can be gained and what they do etc.  But overall i would say if the clutter was a bit less maybe like the things that we kill fade out a little faster or something it would be a lot more fun to play for a long time. And also i noticed the score on the death screen goes below the Wave word so the score and wave counter could be kept a bit more further away.

 The music is fire. Honestly a very fun little game but it feels like it gets hard faster than it should because of the visual clutter atleast that's what i feel.

Don't mind my review i might be a bit harsh of a reviewer but honestly i think my own game is trash so that's that ig :P

Nice artstyle and very energetic music. I liked the track 1982. I got owned by one of the grass spires coming out of the ground at wave 4. It also started getting a bit laggy at that point.

The reverse snake concept is clever. It kinda breaks down with the little shapes following you around and all the random obstacles but its still a cool idea.

And its also a nice twist on the theme. You're running away from the "main character", the snake, and as one of the "game elements", the apple, you're just one of the little guys. Thats my interpretation at least.

The game in general is very polished (aside from the performance issue)

the game is really cool but i don't see the connection to the theme
