Cute! Took me a bit to understand it and the mechanics but it was fun

Love the F5 to restart, clever. Still didn't manage to get the treasure, but I feel that I miss some strategy here. Anyway, game feels nice, well done!

Cool game. Definitely has that retro game feel. The audio is pretty great, and I love the game over screen! The difficulty is pretty steep. I tried multiple times, but couldn't get anywhere close to getting the treasure. I would just get swarmed before I could get close. Also the "F5 to restart" didn't work for me. Overall a solid compo game, and very nostalgic!

The startup music got me thinking of the old "Wizard of Wor" game. Really good take on the theme! Love everything about the style of this game. I'm going to go and play it some more and see if I can figure out where that treasure is... Still haven't found it ๐Ÿ˜†

Fun and simple! Itโ€™s a bit like a thief stealing treasureโ€”you have to find the best route and then make your escape.

It's pretty simple, but it's so retro dude. It's nice thank for this masterpiece <3

I'm not fan of this kind games, so I can't really give any advice

Classic Rogue game, short simple and sweet really embraced the old tech as well with the choice of language. Hard to dodge the snakes they really do lock on once they see you.

Fun but difficult for me

Very difficult because the snakes can "predict" your move, probably by running their pathfinding after the player moved. So you can't "dodge" the snakes, you have to drag them to another room and loose them there with the walls. But the high difficulty kind of fits the oldschool style of the game.

The visual and audio design of the game is very good, you really nailed the old tech style!

Very stylish! I even managed to outsmart the snakes once, though the death screen impressed me more than winning :)

this is really neat, really enjoyed the tricky pathfinding and c64 vibes, it took me two tries to actually get to the treasure and exit without dying ("get back to the exit" gave me a big NOOO reaction at first because I was at 1 HP) :)

This game gave me a serious nostalgia trip! ๐Ÿฅน I used to LOVE playing Snake on old Nokia phones, so this brought back some good memories. There's something so simple but addictive about controlling a little snake and trying not to mess everything up ๐Ÿ˜‚. The gameplay feels really cool and satisfying, and I had a great time playing it. It's amazing how a classic idea can still be this fun. My inner Nokia kid is very happy! ๐Ÿ๐Ÿ“ฑ

I won the treasure and I had to play again and get bitten ๐Ÿ˜„ Good work!

Neat take on it, reminds me of the Atari/Commodore 64 era for sure. Honestly, I've no idea what improvements I could offer for it, it's really good. It was nice trying to maneuver so the snakes got stuck in areas so I could get past them. Strangely, just powering through got me it on my first try, trying to play without losing HP was much harder, lol. Good job!
