Controlling the snake is hard, but I think that was the point, right? Very cool idea!

Simple but fun little game. The exploding barrels and timer are nice additions for sure, good work!
Really cool and funny , no man can ride the Snec :D -Ivory-
No man can tame this snec. I did get some vague idea of how to control the snec after a while but I kept hitting barrels before getting yeeted/yote across the whole map. With some refining and bug fixing this could be something I'd pay a fiver for ngl.
SNEC IS OUT OF CONTROL!
A masterpiece of a snake riding simulator!
I like the wild west artstyle, Like how the snake "controls", very chaotic but still fun!
And making a snake out of separate shapes was a smart decision.
All the assets look pretty clean and the music fits very well!
That's a nice game! Good Job!

It would help a lot if you would rate my game as well! Thank you \(^-^)/
Took me a bit to rein the beast in, but once I figured it out it was alot of fun. I like it.
So little control! I think the beauty of this game is that you actually get some sense of how to move very quickly, even though it still feels very chaotic.
I would love to see it with more variety of mechanics (maybe follow some checkpoints?) and some polishing to the movements (let the player understand the lack of control a bit better, so they can leverage it in the course).
The pioneers used to ride these babies for miles!
Love the idea of trying to wrestle something into position a la QWOP rather than controlling it. I glitched out a couple of times though but overall it was fun to play!
That was really good! I got 91 for my time.
If you revisit this idea, I would urge you to give your soundscape another pass. The whip sound is excellent, as is the victory sound. I would have loved to hear some sandy slithers. I would also urge you to pick music that doesn't incorporate gameplay SFX into its loop, as that was slightly disorienting.
Overall though, you did a great job! I took my snake all the way over the edge of the world and rode him into oblivion
This game makes me go YES! Very funny!
I love the silliness of it. Giant snake rodeo!
If you have time, please check out the game I worked on for the Jam called "Foobar". Thanks!
Had a lot of fun playing the game
Very funny, some of that QWOP quirkiness.
It took me 77 seconds to prove to your game that I can handle a big snake. Would've been faster but it tied itself into a knot meters from the gate!
Thanks for playing! That's a great time :)
I could see this potentially becoming a real addicting game. Great job!
Made 104 seconds. Definitely a 5/5 on originality ^^
I have linked this in every relevant discord, proclaiming this as the best game i have ever played.
thank you for this. i love this so much.
the only think i want is a visible cooldown time on the whip
Hey thanks dude! Yeah that's one aspect that really needs a bit of work :)
"It really made me feel like I was ranching a snake"
This was funny, good job!
