Turning Snake into a puzzle game is a great idea! The shrinking mechanic adds a really interesting twist too. I also appreciate some of the general twists on the classic Snake formula, like giving the player a bit of grace time before the failure state!

Less appreciated is the smoothed movement, though... it creates some severe input lag which honestly killed the game for me, the snake was consistently turning a full grid tile after I wanted it to, which made later levels extremely difficult even after I figured out the solution.

I really, really like the game. The concept and graphics are spot on, so are the sounds. However, the game fell apart for me on the last level. I think the controls are not fit for a level like that. You have to make so many precision turns, and the intertia and input lag make it very hard to do. I wasn't able to beat the last level even though I knew exactly what I had to do. It takes what was a fun little puzzle game and turns it into a frustrating trial of perfect execution.

I think if there are two routes you could take to make a great game out of this:

A) More spacious levels like the first four that have more margin of error/fewer potential errors

B) or make the controls more responsive and decrease the inertia and you can make the levels as complex as you can imagine.

A really solid game. The levels shown weren't super challenging but I did have to consider what I was doing (especially for the crate one) and you were able to show a lot of potential using them.

I was a bit bad at controlling the snake and that was the reason I failed 90% of the time, I seemed to be turning to late a lot. I don't want to say it was the game's fault, I might just be messing up. It wasn't a big deal though, there's no way to expect everything to be perfectly tight in a jam game.

Cool game. :) Would be nice if it was turn-based because having to constantly move seems counter-intuitive to a puzzle game where you have to plan ahead and think. But other than that, the puzzles are nice. :)

So I like how you turned snake into more of a puzzle game instead of a scoring game, gives it a nice twist, and on top of that, level design wise, it's well executed. The art is simple yet good, and that's pretty awesome for a 48 hour jam. Now my only problem has to do with the core gameplay, controlling the snake didnt feel responsive to me, I didn't feel in control, this probably has to do with how smooth the animation is combined with the fact that everything is actually based on a grid, so when you move, there will be a delay related to where you are on that grid. I really don't know how this could be improved because of that... But yeah, other than that it's a solid concept :)

Edit: Oh yeah, really liked the crates too! It's where it became a puzzle game for me and I was like ooooh!!

I love how you showcased lots of different ideas in a nice short format. Now 'just' polish and add more levels  and it will be a great game :D

The point where Snake crosses over with Sokoban puzzles me. Apart from that, it's basically Snake again, with puzzly elements. Nice job.

This is a great concept that is well executed! The addition of the pools of water is what really puts this game over the top- it really made me think about each puzzle spatially! The greatest criticism I have for this game is the constant movement. The constant movement is there to show that the game is snake, but I don't think it fits with the puzzle vibe it's going for.
