The last ball is just too hard to hit; definitely would like to see at least two bounces to let me get a better chance to get in front of the ball; interesting concept, would be interesting to see more fleshed out.

It took me a few tries to get the hang of what was going on... but once I did it was very interesting! I have to say, I've never seen a game about running in circles trying to shoot yourself work so well. 

One critique: it's a bit weird that the bullet moves smoothly but the snake moves in grid time... this often makes the ricochet a bit unpredictable, especially if your snake is already pretty short.

I like it, interesting idea turning the classic snake into a shooter.

Nice idea! It takes a very familiar concept and modifies it enough that it feels quite different. Well done!

Nice design! Replacing eating with shooting makes for an interesting mechanic. I like that you clearly distinguish between the just fired (blue) bullets and ricocheting (red) bullets.

Thanks for the review.

 Yea the blue/ red bullets feature came from a debugging session to see what was happening. I liked it so I kept it in.

Really enjoyed this game, will you keep improving it after the jam? I would love to it look nicer and have controller support.

Developer

I plan to, I had listed some nice to have features that I did not get around to in the Jam.
