Impressive puzzle game! The game is quite completed with challenging level and the game balancing is good with different kinds of props. I did enjoy playing this.

Nice puzzle game! I love that you took the snake's concept and reverse it, it's really smart! Really cool level design, guys, well done!

Cute Idea! I feel the game suffers from the lack of sound and visual feedback for the player and should feel a little bit less choppy, but the puzzles are nice and the amount of levels impressive. The title screen art is also very nice, I actually wish the game itself had a relatively similar aesthetic as well(^:

This is actually a pretty enjoyable game. It was a bit confusing at first because of some text on the screen that I didn't but once it clicks, the gameplay loop simple yet engaging - you really have to think of where the snake is going and turning! Well done.

@liliebagage Thanks for playing and comment ;)

@postfrog Thank you for the valuable comments! Yeah, the art in game is pool, and we don't have time to add bgm/sound effects. Will strive to improve in our next work!

@miku You are right - a more convenient tutorial/introduction to the game is in need! Thanks for the playing and feedback~

At first it was not easy, but after I figured out the rules, it became interesting to play. Not a bad job!

Cool game, built up into some challenging puzzles.

Cool take on a classic. I appreciate the difficulty increased accordingly!

It's interesting in places, but it's worth working on the visual and fixing a critical bug in the game, I came across that after two deaths, the buttons stopped working and I can't start the level again.

Nice puzzle game, a cool variation on the classic snake game!

Really interesting puzzle game. It's a lot more challenging that what it looks like. I had a really nice time racking my brain to solve the different levels. Good job!

I love puzzle game and this one is very great ! STRONG core gameplay ! With a bit of audio and redefined pixel art and it will be perfect ! :)

A cute little puzzle! This actually made me think about the solution and really nailed those "ooooooh" moments where I figured out what I was supposed to do and how the mechanics worked, I would love to play some more of this, but there are also quite a lot of levels for a jam. Nice job ^^

Interesting and cute puzzle game! Lack of music is really sad tho, visual feedback would improve mu experience as well.

Nice puzzle game. I really enjoyed it. Some levels were quite challenging. I think there is a bug in lvl 13 where the red snake can eat the upper right blue food.

spedinja 2024-10-14 14:28 ♥ 2

Really cool Puzzle Game which makes good use of its gimmicks! Only thing that I would appreciate is if there was an option to reset the level without deleting your layout from before. I also found it a little difficult to notice in which direction the snake would turn without starting a test run. Other than these pretty minor things I had lots of fun with this game.

This is a neat little puzzler. I really enjoy the combination of inspirations, too, especially given I enjoyed both types of games greatly when I was a kid. The graphics look good and are the right kind of "chunky fluid" that I think of when I think of early snake games. Good job!

@roroto-sic @patomkin @nrankin13 You are right, we three participated in jam as a team for the first time, so the schedule is not very reasonable and we didn't have time to improve the visual/sound effects. Thank you for playing and comments!
