Like it!
I think this mechanics will be awesome for touch devices

nervous-composers 2016-04-18 18:56

nice background art

snowyowl 2016-04-18 20:53

@Yarg I hadn't thought of that, but you're absolutely right!

lol "many seconds of gameplay"
Really cool mechanic, tough to understand at first.
Just wish there was relaxing audio to go with it. Nice job!

And if anyone's curious, to get the secret ending, you need to ERNPU GUR RAQ JVGUBHG RNGVAT GUR NCCYR (use rot13.com to decode that).

What a lovely game, I liked the spin on old-school snake mechanics.

rynti 2016-04-18 23:38

Haha good job with the multiple endings - only got three though (including the secret ending).

Neat concept.

@UnlikelyRogue: I could have called it "Snake, But With Physics".

@rynti: You actually got the secret ending? Wow. I'm genuinely impressed, I didn't think anyone would have the patience for it.

I was surprised at how quickly I went from having no idea what I was doing to be able to move exactly where I wanted quickly and easily. Love the movement controls, great fun to play around with.

Oh man, this has so much potential! I completed all the endings and I like this prototype as it is. It has a nice, mysterious atmosphere. But if you polish it, create new levels that expand on the mechanic and make it touch friendly... That would be an awesome smartphone game.

This is great -- fantastic atmosphere and pacing, and you really feel like you're controlling the creature through great physics. Nice job!!

Definitely enjoyed the unique mechanic, just the right amount of challenge

argowen 2016-04-29 22:53

Little bit of polish, smooth out the animation add some audio and I think you've got you self a nice little game,

brickkid512 2016-05-02 01:34

It's a nice idea and looks great!

LOVED THE VIBE. THANK YOU

Great compo entry. What a clever and moody game ! The mechanics are really interesting, theme-related, well-executed and innovative. I love how simple and unique is your idea and how you exploited it with the level design. I read on the comment that someone found a secret ending so I searched for it a while and finally managed to find it.

Fun to play and cool usage of the theme!
