Too scary for me. I particularly enjoyed pepe.png sitting in the root of the game.

Too scary for me. I particularly enjoyed pepe.png sitting in the root of the game.
Nice first entry, looking forward to seeing improvements next compo. :)
Doesn't work for me (terminal window just opens and does nothing) when I try to launch the .exe file (win7)
Can't rate high on innovation, and the game doesn't fit the theme, but it works and is fun. Good work, and best of luck with your other games.
Congrats on your first LD game! I really liked the simplicity of it and it fit the growing theme nicely. Nice job!
Nice first game, good luck for the next one !
Congrats on your first entry -- you've made it! :) I enjoyed it, gave me fond memories of NIBBLES.BAS if anybody remembers it.
A cool snake clone. :) Congrats on finished game!
I see how it fits the theme "growing".
Quitting the game on losing can be very annoying. I did the same thing with my first LD game (also written in pygame). It is better to put something there like "Press SPACE to exit" than nothing at all.
Also some advice for coding things like snake and tetris: Try to keep the coordinates small (so lead_x_change in your code would be 0,1, or -1) and multiply by an up-scaling factor in rendering like:
pygame.draw.rect(gameDisplay,orange,[XnY[0]*SCALE, XnY[1]*SCALE,1*SCALE,1*SCALE])
That makes it easier to change the resolution later.

Good job with finishing a game.
Maybe next time try to improve the controls of your game, since I can accidently kill myself by moving in the other direction.
Nice little game. It's not fit in themes, but i think it is cool to create own engine for little games. Good luck with your next games!
I noticed that when you lose the game, it just throws an error and quits. Here's the error text:
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "C:\Python34\lib\site-packages\cx_Freeze\initscripts\Console.py", line 27, in <module>
File "ScarySnake.py", line 112, in <module>

NameError: name 'font' is not defined
Other than that it's a good first effort!
