Great looking game, and fun to play as well! My only issue was it felt the hit boxes were pretty small on the pick ups.

The hitboxes are a bit small on those pick-ups. The game is a bit slow, and I think it would be better if the movement was faster.

Good game and looks amazing! as the other review said, though, the collision for pickups could be a little more generous.

gmisail 2015-12-14 20:05

Hitboxes were a bit small, however overall fun.

I like how this whole game has a bit of a wobble to it like it is underwater. And the smoke like mist behind it. Very nice.

Nile. Visuals are great. Is there end of the game?

zguerrero 2015-12-14 20:58

thanks for the feedbacks every one! Many peoples said me the same things about the hitboxes, i didn't realized that when testing the game... i will work on that later

zguerrero 2015-12-14 21:06

No, no end, just try to have the longest tail!

alexacol 2015-12-14 21:12

The game looks great, love the glow effects!

The graphics were gorgeous, and the game was pretty fun! Controls were good, only remark I have is that indeed the hitboxes for the pickups are a bit small. But that also makes it challenging :)

aranhase 2015-12-14 21:51

Nice little game :)

The graphics are really well done, and doesn't feel like a rushed game. I just not sure about the hitbox size of the white thing we control. Maybe it should be larger for the friendly units only? :)

Anyways, good job...

I like it! Pretty simple game, with very pretty graphics, especially with the mini-explosions when you pick up a white cell.

torcado194 2015-12-15 00:36

very interesting visuals! the hitboxes were a bit small, and there's not too much gameplay. but that's not necessarily a bad thing! simple and effective

bradur 2015-12-15 19:35

Gorgeous game! Everything worked well. The game is quite simple though. And no sound effects. But it looks so good!

simonaiso 2015-12-15 19:51

Really love the art, especially the background flames! Actually more fun than flappy bird. The hitboxes of the powerups seem a bit small, but luckily, the hitboxes of the enemies are small too ;)

donengland 2015-12-15 19:51

Interesting take on it. I did something similar. There is no end/fail state?

philstrahl 2015-12-15 19:54

great art design, really loved it and am still curious what kinda sound you would have done. Liked also the idea of smart bombs. Nice little time-waster :)

I gotta start this by stating that this is one of the best looking snake/infinite runner clones out there. Commercial versions included. It really is good looking, congratulations! The game is really simple to play and pickup, but I have to +1 the first comment: the hit box for the pick ups is very small, compared to the obstacles. It's much easier to scratch an obstacle, but we only get a pickup if we go right through it, which is a bit disappointing. Please add music and sound to a postcompo version, this would really enhance your game.

I am glad you didnt make this too hard because its quite mesmeric and peaceful :). The graphics are great I love the waviness of the er....worms top and bottom and the light worm flows excellently. Found it frustratingly touching the light orbs but not collecting them conversely that made the spikes hard to hit so not so. Also though it was clever that you dont die as such just go back to zero. Much more satisfying. Nice one!

+ Fun gameplay.
+ Nice graphics.

- Collectable colliders were too small.

mukult 2015-12-16 20:10

Ohh wow!! the environment feels so organic... Nice work!!
I agree with people though... hitboxes are way too small... felt kind of cheated! :P

blackbird806 2015-12-16 20:15

The global design of the game is very good, the game is not very innovating but fun. The hitbox of pick ups were too small.

mikaza 2015-12-16 21:31

The game looks great. Good Job . it's a little bit hard to get the collectable though.
Nice Job :)

crucknuk 2015-12-16 21:32

Nice compo. I wish the game could be more difficult as you progress because the bomb is not really usefull at the moment. Playing this game is kind of relaxing. Good job ;)

philipp 2015-12-17 10:34

Nice visuals, sadly flappy bird games are meh. No lose or win condition make playing feel kind of pointless. Controlls are good

mshopf 2015-12-18 00:53

Awesome graphics, somehow I'm really bad in picking up things, and I don't understand the difference between the differently sized blobs.
Also i think the game would greatly benefit from some sound

inbetweengames 2015-12-18 15:44

Sweet looking game! (i.e. this wispy smoke behind the snake!).
The beauty of abstraction.. I imagined that I am floating through the blood vessels - fighting viruses, bacteria or something... ;)

pianoman373 2015-12-19 05:48

Great graphics, but lacks some gameplay features.

strike 2015-12-24 14:40

Basic gameplay but solid enough. Very good graphics. Maybe it would be more challenging if the difficulty increased with time.

tommislav 2015-12-27 16:46

Very impressive graphical effects! I like it a lot.
It would have been nice with some kind of end game condition.

otiose-ent 2015-12-27 16:48

great feel of depth in a 2d game. Awesome graphics overall, but the red things dont fit the style... Good job!

tortoise 2015-12-30 22:06

Cool entry, hit boxes on the pick ups felt tiny though, liked the graphics.
