This game is so cool. It is really juicy and mind twisting and everything seem made in the best way! I find a bug where you could simply move on tile and eat you tail dirrectly in some level with no human

Great puzzle game! Seems simple enough, but then you really have to start thinking ahead. SFX and Music are spot on! I like the way the whole board shakes when you eat someone or finish the level. How did you get that effect?

Thanks for the feedback!! The board shake effect comes actually is done through camera movement. It looks like the board is moving but it’s actually the camera! When you eat a person, it plays an animation where the camera shakes and a transparent UI element appears to make the screen change color. Hope that helps!
