Wasn't sure what to do at first but good fun once I had the hang of it! Cool chill audio and decent intuitive controls.

I'm terrible at this game, but I really enjoyed playing it. Super addictive good jam! :)
Adorable! Lovely art style and fun! I could definitly imagine this being a mini-game mobile game :)
Cool 8-bit style and a funny theme, enjoyed the opening! Mechanics are a tad unweildy but altogether a fun game :)
Love the atmosphere, freaky but awesome! Really good jam!:)
Really lovely visuals very polished! The only issue I have really is how small those numbers are on the packages. Feel like something more legible would have helped. A great jam :)
Haha amazing, really had me going! Game of the Year!
Good game! An interesting use of a hookshot and space trash truck mechanics. I enjoyed all the individual art assets a fun theme! :)
A really succesful jam! Pretty much all of the elements are there to make this a fun game and a decent arcade throwback. Really enjoyed playing :)
Amazing! Really awesome art style and the storm creates a tense but climactic atmosphere. The controls are responsive and effective though I did struggle to tell which direction I was attacking in on occassion. Overall a reall solid jam!
Good jam! Simple design but challenging in a fun way. It would be nice if it were more feasible to predictably avoid the arrows, maybe if there were some animation before the attack or something. Really good fun :)
Cool setting and a different take on running of out space. Mechanics are a tad temprimental, sometimes the attack works and sometimes it doesn't. Maybe it's just hard to tell when to attack, not sure. Good jam anyways!
Haha love it!
Pretty hardcore game but enjoyable! Good jam :)
Amazing atmosphere, visuals and a solid use of the theme! Really enjoyed the concept and playing. :D
Wow the atmosphere in this game is great! The labyrinth of houses with the moody lighting is amazing, really sells the spooky tone. I like the fact that you have to sacrifice health for upgrades but I felt like they weren't decent enough upgrades to get me through the rounds which ramp up fast. Also you run out of ammo pretty fast and using the sword seems to be a direct trade off for health. Overall though really enjoyable, great jam!
Cheers guys :smile:
@fizzpowmike1 A sort of GTA star rating perhaps?
Hey glad you liked the game @saering ! It would have been nice to have polished the collision and some other elements!
Hey @prodigalson glad you like the game! :smile: We actually blocked off the tunnel from the front but didn't anticipate people being able to drive up the side walls of the tunnel entrance lol xD
Hilarious! Loving dem sound fx ;)
Really enjoyed playing the jam! Some really nice timing and platforming elements. It's a shame that you dont see him on holiday! I was hoping for some palm tree action :wink:
One of the few games which I've actually downloaded to play. Great artwork, mechanics and I love the atomsphere! Perhaps a bit complicated mechanically for a games jam but I could imagine this padding out really well to a release title. Really nice work!
A really lovely clean style and fun gameplay! Great jam :smile:
Love the art style! Lovely design :)
Cool game, some well thought out puzzle elements! Backtracking makes the experience a bit slow in places but overall quite enjoyable :smile:
Amazing game!! Love the art style and the retro boss battles are great! Really nice work :smile:
Too funny! I really connected with the character here. The audio, art and design are all great, a well put together jam all round!
Good first entry!
Cool blob! Trying to work out how you made it deform with the level, really cool! Some of the enemies spawn too quickly, in one instance I started the level pretty much on an enemy. Good fun though :smiley:
Loved this game! It's pretty much an entire game, it's great! The art and design are awesome and everything feels really succinct. Great work! :smile:
Cool idea and it's nice and challenging. Would have liked a couple more elements but overall good fun :smile:
A fun game! The platforming works well but could probably do with some fine tuning. The main issue is depth perception in the game is tricky. Perhaps being able to independently use the camera to 'look around' up/ down and adding some trails onto the moving objects would help with this. A good jam :smile:
Loved the stream from the other day and cool game! It is nails, managed to complete it but I think that I may have RSI now ;) It needs an element of randomness to the combat I suspect, perhaps with some abilities thrown in and high damage player attacks. It would also be nice to have some more visual and audio feedback. Had fun though, great entry :smile:
Great jam, a really nice style and sense of mood! Perhaps more could have been of the kill/ spare villagers mechanic
Cheers guys! @geoff-nagy yeah it's not super optimized. Might add a Windows version too, tends to be more stable.
Awesome game really loved the timed light mechanic. Really polished visuals too, great work!
Nice concept, lovely visuals. Crashed a couple times in browser version
Thank's for all the ratings and comments guys!! Agreeably the camera is quite jarring although after playing for a short while we all found that it was no longer too noticeable (though this may not be the case for everyone) We did include a top down camera view initially and if we do choose to release as a full game it's maybe something we could do as a separate mode which could be super cool. :) We're mostly from a mobile dev background so working on a pc title was a nice change of pace (just don't look too closely at those polygon counts) We'll probably post up something later with a breakdown of how we approached the art with a crazy lack of time and sleep.
Hi @Densin thanks for the stellar review, appreciate the comments! :) As you say the difficult of encouraging progression to the longer snek is something we need to put more thought into. We could nerf damage taken across the body and introduce perks as you progress such as mad new weapons, body turrets etc. Like the concept of having a slowdown on the enemies!
Good catch on the inputs! Probably the result of not having enough time to test in the end. Would love to build some new levels, we actually prototyped a double sized level but our frame rate just collapsed! Watch this space though! :)
Cheers again!
Hey all
Just a quick post for those who are interested with some of the art we worked on for our Jam Mechasnek :)
Mechasnek_Units.jpg
A lot of the speed modelling was completed in the first day and was intended to be as modular as possible and made without the need of high poly projections. All of the polys!
Mechasnek_Environments.jpg
On the second day we worked up the lighting which really helped to support the visuals, we only really required a few basic textures.
Didn't have a full day in on the third day but we managed to polish with a few fx and odds n ends. All in all quite an intense 3 days but great fun!
Hope you guys enjoy the game, I'm still not very good the maximum score that I've managed to date is 38 Mechasnek length :)
