This is a great entry. The control seems to work well as I am to able to set my next turn. Nice work!

teekeks 2015-12-14 07:20

Nice work!

Great game. Nice touch with the antennae pointing.

kirilllosev 2015-12-14 12:43

controls is a bit sluggish. i mean i can't press it at the right moment without thinking about it. because of that i didn't play very long
the game perfectly fits the theme, tho :)

Nice entry, that plays well most of the time (although I can hold turn button, it works for one turn and then I have to unhold and hold again to not crash). There are some nice ideas in later level, it's cool actually you had time designing many levels in a ludum dare entry.

The graphics are ok and 3d and the sound effects are funny :)

Fun enough (snake meets pacman), but the audio can be a bit obnoxious haha.

Left or right at the right time! Excellent voice sounds! Especially the victory music. Thank you for saving the progression, my browser had a crash!

HTML link is broken.

Thanks everybody for testing my game and for the kind comments.

@kirilllosev : If it can help, look at the antennas, they turn in the direction according to key pressed.

@Optimus6128: in fact, the levels are procedurally generated.

@Geti: you've made me learn a new English word: "obnoxious" ;)

@kabel: I've just tested again and the HTML link is OK. If the HTML5 version is broken for you, please try with another browser (I think Firefox is the better for that).

Reminds me of the caterpillars from Super Mario World

A nice mix of snake and pacman style games. Game sometimes stops after the round ends though, and doesn't bring the menu back up (in the web version, after death or collecting last pellet).

catonmars 2015-12-17 23:31

Nice work!
But I encountered the situation when you died and nothing happened, the game just freeze.
I hope after play this game my C plus plus program won't be bug plus plus.

pat-aftermoon 2015-12-17 23:37

@Clavus and @CatOnMars : Are you sure with the freeze when winning or dying ? Your have to press an arrow key (or escape) to return to the menu. I've tested with multiple browser and never experienced this bug.

knason 2015-12-19 20:01

It was quite fun when I after a while understood the controls, really fun audio! good job!

cakemonitor 2015-12-19 21:18

Nice game. The antennae showing which way you're about to turn is a good touch.

knarf2011 2015-12-20 20:53

I give it a solid B++

tapehead 2015-12-21 11:35

it reminds me on nibbly on c64 but with a cool reference to Wigglers, this is cool! well done :)

dx0ne 2015-12-21 12:29

Weirdly fun. Setting turn ahead is great mechanic.

Should get special award for sounds.

adsilcott 2015-12-21 14:48

I appreciate the solid controls, and it definitely fits the theme. Nice.

pantoufle 2015-12-21 21:42

Great game and a lot of content!
A background music would have been nice.
Congratulations for making this!

euske 2015-12-22 09:36

Frankly this was the most unfun game to me. The mechanics is there and it's well implemented, but it was just tedious and painful. Later levels are pretty much the same with increased speed but it felt needlessly dragging on.

themadknights 2015-12-22 11:04

Cute game

mr-madcat-2 2015-12-22 17:47

Cool game.
The sound effects are just awesome. Some background music would be nice.
Well done.

cpau 2015-12-23 14:24

Cool game but I wasn't able to get the menu after finishing the fist level :/

pat-aftermoon 2015-12-23 15:02

@CPau: it may sound unclear, but you have to hit an arrow key or the escape key to return to menu after dying or winning.

poptartftw 2015-12-27 11:15

This is one of the top games I've played in any Ludum Dare, and I've played a lot.

jupiter_hadley 2015-12-31 20:05

Simple, well made game. I included it in my Ludum Dare 34 compilation video series, if you’d like to check it out :) https://youtu.be/i8PM6O3S2Ao

Didn't understand at first how the queuing of my input was working, but once I noticed the rotation of the antenna it made sense. Since it's such a vital thing to the control scheme I would have made that effect a lot more apparent. Good work overall though :)
