Good game. Fun to play. I found it hard to line up and take a shot. Perhaps we could turn faster? minor point. Good Audio too.

Cool little take on the 'snake' game. On OSX, Ctrl + arrows did something funky... D: But as long as I don't press them at the same time, it's fine. :D

Decent little game. My only complaint is that the sound is painfully loud, and with the rate at which you fire, it gets even louder. Giving the player a turn radius adds a little more strategy to gameplay!

Fun game, controls seemed a bit off though.

Great game. Love the music. Found it a bit hard to aim, but alas.

Was a little hard to aim but other than that good job!
I like the music

Nice game

Well done! The graphics and music are decent, and the idea is very good! Too bad the controls give you too little precision to aim at the enemies.
Good job!

Neat little game. I saw in the notes that the tail was intended to be a weapon later. I think that would make it a lot more interesting than making it snake like.

Pretty fun variant of snake, without the unstoppable movement and with shooting added. Models are alright, but could be improved. I wasn't too keen on the colour palette used, but by no means does that subtract from the gameplay. The music was alright, and while it could be improved, it was decent enough.
Sound effects were fitting.
Adding online highscores or some other replay value would be a nice way to keep players hooked.

I want to thank you all for your constructive feedback. I'm currently working on a post-compo version that will have more responsive controls (including controllers), improvements to rendering, online high scores and audio volume sliders. ;)

Note: I've added a post-compo version (standalone player only). It has improved rendering, more responsive controls, online high scores and audio volume sliders. Note: I'm still working on controller support. Unfortunately, I only have a PS4 controller, so can't test with the more common XBOX controller.
