My computer won't run it (windows 10). It says it's for my protection... Why so many dlls anyways ?
I was a bit inpired by snake too but I went as far from it as I could.
My compo:
http://ludumdare.com/compo/ludum-dare-34/?action=preview&uid=46758
Pro:
+ It gets hard really quickly
+ Graphics and sounds match nicely
Con:
- Well... it's just snake ^^;
- Graphics style is nice, but feels something wrong... I don't know if it's just too basic or the grid...
Obs:
o When I played snake I liked to use the 3-7 or 1-9 control, being diagonals they counted as left-up and right-down etc. The controls of this game it's a bit confusing, but not that hard to get
Great job in 6 hours!

Doesn't run on windows 8.1 (only pops up shortly in task manager).
Basic and not really innovative, but it's a solid implementation and (most importantly) it works. The sounds give an arcady feel and the controls work well. Nice job for 6 hours of work.
@5you: It's normal to ship dll's. If a game doesn't it means they're embedded in the exe, but that's unflexible and also sort of hard to do. Next time please include an error message as "it doesn't work" is not really helpful.
It's snake, there's not much else to say on that front.
the sound and graphics are a bit grating and the board is a lot smaller than I'm used to. if you were to double the boardsize in both axes, add a green nokia-style filter, and make the snake fill the entire squares instead of little shapes inside them, this would be a much more solid rendition of snake.

Yeeey! Just dropped a tear for Nokia 3310... I liked the controls, they are quite unventional :) The sounds are nice too! Scored ten points.
for a 6-hour game, its ok i guess. Maybe you should switch to an other programming language or at least some other librarys, because this pile of dll's and the starting problem are not nice (was that visual basic? The logo reminded me of this.)
Not bad for 6 hours! Found it hard to control the snake, but it makes sense given the 2 button control theme. I pressed d immediately and ran the thing into the wall unexpectedly. I wasn't looking at the controls from the snakes perspective. What was your original idea?
Cool little snake clone.

Great simple graphics! c:
Whenever I opened it, it crashed immediately afterwards (Windows 7, 64-bit). Are there anything I need to install to get it running? I'm on a new computer, so that may be the problem.
