Very nice gameart! I didn't play snake for a long time and I was at a pretty good round, when a yellow one spawned on a stone... and so I died...  :P That's something to look at, I guess.

Please, If you find the time to play and rate my game, I would like that!

I love the artwork! That is one fast moving root though! I wish my plants in real life would move that fast :)

I loved the idea of this game and the take on the theme but the execution needs a lot of work. I never even got the tiniest sprout let alone a tall sunflower seed.
Level 1 is way too fast, even when I'd figured out I was basically playing snake, it was too fast. It took me over 20 attempts to complete the first level and then oh there's more of the same. 

IMO the first level of any game should be easy, it should be almost impossible to fail the first level.
Also the seeds and rocks can spawn on top of each other

Thanks for the feedback, we plan in refining the game but decided to wait till after the rating process to keep in the spirit of the jam. I started a new job towards the end of the jam so ran out of time and had to submit before we was really ready.

I loved the graphics and the animations, like how the levels scrolled down!! I was really bad at the game tho lol

Pretty cool game. Love the art and music.

Nice game. You really need to stop the spawning of food over the rocks though :) That said, the game was compelling enough that I happily replayed level 3 until I got a winnable 'seed'.

Time is currently very limited but I will be addressing the spawning issue, that being said we are so glad you enjoyed them game :)

The idea is very sweet and cute, i really like snake and flowers, so... the combo!

But yeah, got the same issues as others players and I'm sure once u fix those problems it will be a totally great game!

Good luck :3

Very lovely. It all fits together very well. I like the animation how the flower dies. Good Job

I really like the visual of this game! Took a moment to know what I'm doing, but once I figured it out, it became a fun snake game! Thanks!

Developer

Glad you enjoyed it :)

This is a really cute game and I really liked the pixel art. It's deceivingly difficult (it's probably me just being bad) but it took me like 5 tries to complete the first level lol. All in all it was fun!

Good game. I enjoyed playing your game. I agree with the other feedback you got regarding spawning issues but as you said you are working on it. Also, make the speed of the snake(or worm) a bit slower in the beginning levels and increase as the player moves on to higher levels.

Snake! Brilliant! Although sometimes the seeds randomly spawn onto rocks and this makes it impossible to continue to the next level. Good Stuff!

Submitted(+1)

Nice, like the old snake games. Is it roots or a worm? . The flower looks great!

Submitted(+2)

Great! I love the worm idea, but with the added twist of having to collect the... seeds? in a certain order so you don't cross over your own root was a cool idea. I have two suggestions though. Maybe having it so the seeds don't spawn on top of the rocks would be good. And if there's a way to limit rocks spawning in front of the player's starting point that would be good too. I found on some runs I immediately ran into a rock. I might have a slower reaction time than most people but I think that would help people go through a few more rounds without frustration. Really solid game though!

Fun idea. And the title of the game is great.

Thanks :)

Its an interesting idea but I think you move too quickly to start with.
I'd like to try it again with 2/3rds the speed in Level 1.

Either that or show the targets earlier so you can plan the route before you start.
