fin_nolimit 2016-04-19 06:35

Very cool and unique game!!! It took me a few minutes to get the hang of it and once I did I was locked in! Nice work!

stevenjmiller 2016-04-19 06:54

Amazing game! The puzzles are great and games controls very well.

strife47 2016-04-19 07:01

Its a really good and fun game! Too short :(

mintarcade 2016-04-19 07:05

Wow. This is very unique game. Looks so simple, but plays so great. Awesome game!

wg_phancock 2016-04-19 07:15

Really great mechanic and feedback with the "magnet" icons -- so simple and intuitive I picked it up almost immediately. Nice puzzle design, solid responsive controls, and cool music.

I just wish there were more levels and puzzle elements! Some sound effects would be nice too, for hitting the switches or collecting stars, etc, even if they were simple bleep-bloop type sounds.

eymrich 2016-04-19 07:20

Nice work!

usonchen 2016-04-19 08:03

Innovated!

miret 2016-04-19 08:57

Very good it's fun and intuitive. Good job, I expect more leves in a near future.

cabezotta 2016-04-19 15:04

Great game! :D

luquio 2016-04-19 22:47

heyyy really nice mechanics

eduardogacn 2016-04-20 01:39

Thank you very much for your feedback :D

bigpan 2016-04-20 01:46

Awesome game, never played anything like it before! Good graphics and music, well done!

toadfrogs 2016-04-20 01:48

You've made an innovative mechanical snake, which was really unique. Amazing! :D

crowbeak 2016-04-20 01:54

Very solid entry, all around. Neat puzzle platforming mechanic.

bkgh 2016-04-20 02:02

Very fun game. The mechanics remind me of Snakebird, but with a focus on skill instead of puzzles.

zzapp 2016-04-20 02:04

Fun gameplay, a unique mechanic, and interesting puzzles. Great job.

team-tiger 2016-04-20 02:12

I really enjoyed this! I like the shape mechanic and you put together some thoughtful levels in a short time. I suppose the graphics are the weakest part, but they are clean and the purpose of each object is easily readable (except the little flying enemy imo). I would definitely play more of this, great marks all around! :D

budaniel 2016-04-20 02:15

I love the mechanic of growing the snake, it controls perfectly, and the levels are really well balanced. The audio was atmospheric and fitting as well.

fenwick 2016-04-20 03:21

Wow, very simple and yet very innovative and fun! Puzzles are very clever too. The music is great to top it all off, well done.

swinestudios 2016-04-20 04:51

Leaves me wanting more levels

atollett100 2016-04-20 05:05

Really innovative. A bit of a clarity issue with the alien, wasn't sure which spaces he was occupying at first. also I wish the music didnt reset every time you started a new room. Looked really nice. well done

kumoi 2016-04-20 07:58

Very nice game! I did however get stuck in the red area by accident and couldn't exit or move.

pibeex 2016-04-20 12:15

Great game and innovative mechanics!

rafosgamess 2016-04-20 14:48

Great game =)

matzigon 2016-04-20 20:08

Good design, nice visuals, innovative puzzle. Could have been a bit longer. :)

angerfork 2016-04-22 01:54

Super fun! Well done!

themeorch 2016-04-22 01:56

Fantastic! You've got a great core mechanic, and you expanded really nicely on it in the levels that followed. I'd love to see a bunch more levels with new mechanics and combinations of the existing ones. Awesome job, one of my favorite games so far!!

hankenstien 2016-04-22 02:06

I really like the easy to learn grab and pull mechanic. Very fun and addictive. Nice audio and graphics also.

aflatminerstudios 2016-04-22 02:19

Wow, the total package. New fun mechanics, neat levels (more!), great music. Polish this thing up and get it out there somewhere.

tchai 2016-04-22 05:35

This game is perfect! Really, really enjoyable and clever (Unique).

Congrats and great job Eduardo!

egos 2016-04-22 07:40

relay nice idea i like it
But no checkpoint and the game have no replay value due to the slow movement

ibzy 2016-04-22 07:53

Very nice mechanic, original and very fun.
Difficulty progress is smooth and the graphics are elegant.
This could become a mobile hit.
Good job :)

fafastudio 2016-04-22 10:27

Very nice little game :) enjoyed it , i found it too much easy at the beginning but it's definately not :)

oliver_mb 2016-04-22 11:12

Amazing game!!! I love the music!

khaos_fang 2016-04-22 14:35

Very nice mechanic!

fabraz 2016-04-22 14:51

Getting a major vibe from a recent indie game... Forgot what it was called. You were a type of virus that shifted its form to platform across a desolate, post-apocalyptic world. Lot's of green... Anyway, fun concept!

pestelcrew 2016-04-22 16:03

Very nice mechanics. I hope you'll made a full game.

kairosxiii 2016-04-22 23:59

Great take on theme and game mechanics. Well thought out puzzles. Great entry.

eduardogacn 2016-04-23 01:47

Thank you all for your comments and feedback. Follow me on itch if they want to see future versions of the game. ?

lanestp 2016-04-23 02:12

Really fun! And super creative! I'm amazed that this mechanic works but it really, really did!

acouplegames 2016-04-23 02:31

really good game! congrats for innovation, it was amazing and fun. Keep the good job!

lucasncv 2016-04-23 02:43

Great concept and fun game!

sararycow 2016-04-23 02:51

Small but enjoyable game. I want to play new levels!

tomahawk2001913 2016-04-23 02:51

Really cool game!

yword 2016-04-23 04:25

I just finished it, it is really innovative and fun! Well done!

ultravioleta 2016-04-23 06:21

interesting mechanic and great level design! good job!

neondx 2016-04-23 10:47

great concept, a little too hard in the begining!

ekkiiiii 2016-04-23 14:08

Great mechanic and well designed levels. Awesome game!

bytegrove 2016-04-23 14:17

Oh yes, this is awesome! You have a real winner here, the mechanics are really clever, awesome interpretation of the theme. My only complaint is that I can't use WASD for controls as arrow keys makes the browser window scroll. But that's nitpicking because there really is only positive stuff to say about this! ;D Awesome work!

kepamun 2016-04-23 15:58

Great concept! Innovation 5/5, would play more levels.
You found a way to a snake variant that is intellectually engaging, impressive.

pyokoanarogue 2016-04-23 16:17

Pretty much perfect-ish design!

hippy-dave 2016-04-23 16:22

That was sweet, great innovative idea and very slick presentation. Would definitely play more of this.

2016-04-23 17:59

Hi, nice game ! We're realizing a video with several games of the Ludum Dare #35.
Can you add your game on indiexpo.net ? (it's free)
So we can include also your game in the video ;)
p.s. write #LDJAM in the game's description

inyourlegends 2016-04-23 20:19

Really cool concept. Well done.

huminaboz 2016-04-23 22:50

Very relaxing and fun - good audio sync with the mood too.

balbinoaylagas 2016-04-24 05:23

Loved your game, the graphics where nice, the controls where excellent. the gameplay and the mechanics where the best. Awesome work!

studdert249 2016-04-24 06:12

Nice little puzzle game, with a well thought out mechanic. The only thing that would have made it better would have been more levels! (But saying that time restrictions will be time restrictions)

vidsneeze 2016-04-24 07:10

So much awesomeness! The mix of puzzle and action go well together.

dat_not_my_game 2016-04-24 07:53

Nice puzzle game with snake-game and wall-stick mechanics and nice style.

omarhuseynov011 2016-04-24 09:20

Really nice gameplay mechanics. Thanks for the entry!

lookslikesomething 2016-04-24 09:24

Great game, but too short >.<
good job !

yoel1234 2016-04-24 10:23

wow thats an awesome take on snake, very interesting mechanics.
can totally be a full commercial game if you put more time into itt.
great job.

knason 2016-04-24 10:36

wow, cool game, I really had fun playing this, very innovative. Great game! good job!

hunttis 2016-04-24 12:51

Very good! A novel mechanic with nice puzzles. I would've definitely played more of this! Nice work all around!

diebackstudios 2016-04-24 13:26

nice entry i loved the new take on old classic snakes

semicolon 2016-04-24 14:24

Quite cool! Shame it was short, I could see this becoming a great puzzler.
Perhaps you could add sound effects, or more interesting enemies.
This game clearly does not need a tutorial of any sort, as the mechanic is very clear from gameplay, and that in itself is quite a feat. Congratulations!

asturk 2016-04-24 17:00

Great game there, reaaly lked the snake mechanic mixed with puzzle and fast reaction parts. Its really fun and the levels was well made!

tentacode 2016-04-24 17:30

Awesome puzzler!

studiosaurus 2016-04-24 18:29

Great little game! Well made, polished. Nice take on a popular idea.

namrog84 2016-04-24 21:40

that was quite fun! Great job! I love it!

riftpoint 2016-04-25 00:32

Very nice gameplay mechanic, well implemented idea. Nice puzzles and nice art style

ivanfon 2016-04-25 00:33

Amazing game! Unique mechanic, great graphics and music. There was an incredible amount of polish to it, and the game was really fun and immersive. One of the best I've seen, I hope you'll develop this further post-jam. Great job!

springcabal 2016-04-25 10:32

I like it!

Pros:
fun and simple controls
nice mixture of challenge and reward
interesting execution of shapeshifting
cons:
the audio wasn't bad, but could be expanded (new music with new levels, sound effects)

mightytoaststudio 2016-04-25 12:12

Really fun game. I want more levels!

I can't find anything bad about your game (the game needs some sfx, but that all), it's very solid entry.

Congrats!

fanatrick 2016-04-25 13:12

Very immersive, excellent job!

captainpilot 2016-04-25 13:41

Great concept. Wish there was more levels!

xanjos 2016-04-25 21:18

Loved the mechanics and the levels were surprisingly hard.

soron 2016-04-25 23:19

Simple yet innovative and fun core mechanic :). I was sad when I realized I'd reached the last level. Well done!

fin_nolimit 2016-04-26 00:14

There are a few games that I'm returning to in order to play again and this is one of them!!! I was able to beat all the levels and I just loved the game play! I also thought about a stretching mechanic for the shapeshifting theme but you DID A WAY BETTER job!!! Very nice work!!

beavlgames 2016-04-26 00:29

Love the redesign on snake mechanics. Really liked some of the levels. Good stuff. Congrats on it!

pjimmy 2016-04-26 09:25

Very creative game

derr 2016-04-26 10:34

Very refreshing and fun game! Audio and visuals are nicely done, too. Great entry! :)

guoboism 2016-04-26 23:47

Wow! Very innovative mechanic! Really fun to play as worm like this! Really creative!

japes 2016-04-27 18:00

Cute game - I really like the idea and the puzzle solving aspects. If you were to develop this game then I could see a variety of challenging scenarios being developed and extra goody items (or booby traps) being placed. Very cool.

sabina-lis 2016-04-28 00:20

I like this mechanics, i also played "The maitre D" wich also uses stretching as shapeshift, you might like to check it out. Snake is simpler but a lot of fun as well, Great work!

ravagerbrian 2016-04-28 00:38

It's really fun! Great game. :)

matiasbontempo 2016-04-28 01:40

Very good idea and execution!

evogengames 2016-04-28 07:05

cool gameplay! awesome implementation of the theme.
Mood/visuals/audio made it even better.

crimson713 2016-04-28 13:47

Great and innovative idea that follows the theme. Very nice graphics and music. A bit short though, I would love more levels.

plko 2016-04-28 20:09

Magnet symbol is a good idea. Although there is no description about this, you still can understand what it mean after few times try.

adipson 2016-04-30 08:46

Centiped is back ! lol fun game !

flummox2d 2016-04-30 17:24

This mechanic is really, really fun. Nice idea and level design. Give us more levels! Awesome entry! :D

neilcorre2k6 2016-05-01 06:30

Great Game! :D

bazkur98 2016-05-01 23:26

Very nice! Once I got the hang of it I was having some real fun. Nice Job!

snowyowl 2016-05-02 00:06

Absolutely flawless! The graphics are clear and pretty, the puzzles are interesting and could clearly stay challenging for long enough to make a full-length game. The music is quirky-fun and doesn't get repetitive. And of course the controls are clear and intuitive; within seconds of starting the game I understood how the snake moved and I was clinging to the ceiling like a regular Spider-Man. Well done!

niklaas 2016-05-02 00:19

Good work!

persimonn-pomelo 2016-05-02 00:43

Super cool, love the background music and voices. Simple, innovative mechanic which is quite an achievement. Great work!

mr-chippy 2016-05-02 12:17

This was so much fun! The music and graphics were very good too. :)

pinkindian 2016-05-02 14:39

Well made and solid game experience! You also managed to add your own twist to the old "snake movement". I also liked the music.

wizzardmaker 2016-05-02 17:54

You've got some good music in there, and a nice and polished gameplay.

ainoraz 2016-05-03 22:22

Wow! Amazing mechanics!

lereveur 2016-05-06 14:30

Unique puzzle ! Innovative game mechanic, and ambiant jazz music, I like it, it was fun to play. :)

jaenis 2016-05-08 15:28

Amazing gameplay! This was similar as "Portal" for me, had to think bit differently to solve those puzzles. Great work!
This could work on a mobile very nicely...

larzan 2016-05-09 08:44

Awesome game, well done, nice gfx (only the walls could be nicer, maybe add just some shadow in the background).
The only thing that was a bit anoying is that you have to start from the beginning, a few savepoints / respawnpoints in between would be nice.
Good job!

gamepopper 2016-05-09 12:36

Really clever idea, a very good take on the Snake game.
