nice soundtrack and intriguing game design like how your forced to go snail to proceed to through the fends creates tension
Foon → Ludum Dare Explorer → LD51 → Snail Gale

What a funny idea! :D Nice game!
Like the soundtrack. Fun little game.
I love the concept! Music and artstyle are also very well done!!!
I like the humor in this one. And Gale.
The guards were a bit difficult. Trying to escape the guards and then being transformed into a SLOW snail is really something :)
What a nice game! The music and art is really well made, and the puzzles were interesting (other than sometimes being too simple). I don't really have many criticisms, so... good job!
Nice Idea for the theme! Making Gale a even quicker in his human form would make it less frustrating while also setting apart the two forms a bit more. I liked the music.
Great artstyle, really inventive idea
Nice graphics, I got stuck on walls sometimes but I've had fun with it :) Well done!
Honestly you had me at snail...this game really made me laugh! I loved the art and the music so much, I thought the story idea was great and very original but perhaps Gale could have moved a bit quicker, and I got stuck behind counters as the snail a few times.
Good game! The graphics and audio are great (I especially like the walking animation of the player, and the sound effect of the bare feet one the floor), and I also like the concept. Though having to just stand and wait to transform into a snail so that I can vent can get kind of repetitive and slow, especially when I've got to do it after every time I die. However I think this is just a minor problem and maybe adding a feature where the player can also force themselves to transform (though maybe be unable to transform back just to keep the challenge there) might fix the problem. Other than that though, I thought this was good. Well done!
Love the sprites and the mechanics. Waiting out the 10 second timer was occasionally frustrating, but the theme integration itself was playful and interesting.
Hey, I played your game on the stream - twitch GGame86
Something’s wrong with music Please give my game a try if you have some time!
Fun idea, fun execution. Well done .)
Great take on the theme. The game looks and feels nice too.
Fun concept and great focus on the theme. Would play more!
I love the character design. I like ambiguity of whether he actually is a snail, or just thinks he is one.
I don't mind the escape and timing being a bit hard, but some checkpoints would have been really nice, so I wouldn't have to replay early easy sections.
Really quirky take on the theme, great stuff!
Very fun game and interesting interpretation of the theme. Quite difficult to espace the guards though, maybe they could ignore the player when in snail form.
Funny idea and design) You've made a good game with cool music!
Great game, solid execution of the theme switching between characters. Occasionally I'd get caught in walls and so would NPCs but its easy to forgive as overall it was great fun.
I like Gale's appearance and how his nightgown shifts :D great game
