I really liked this. At first I was super confused why the snakes kept deactivating, and then it clicked and I was like whoooaa. I would have liked an "undo" button since it is very easy to get yourself into an unwinnable state and have to redo a lot of work, but as is the puzzles you have and the matching mechanic are really cool :) well done

Thanks for playing! Good point about the deactivation: I kind of showed how to activate snakes through the level design, but didn't really highlight how to deactivate them. I feel you on the undo button :D Probably one of the first things I'd add if I continued working on this.

Really nice visuals, would have been better with smoother shapes but the colors are really nice !

Don't know If I just didn't fully understand the mechanics but the game allows to be stuck ?

Thanks for the feedback! The shapes could definitely have used some more time.

If you get stuck in a level you can press R to reset. The jam submission page doesn't seem to show the full game description (where I put the controls), which is unfortunate.

I loved your game! The visuals were very nice, very minimal but they look amazing. The gameplay fits the theme. The last level was very satisfying to beat. I was a bit confused after it because I had a hard time reading the "U win" text, I thought it was a new level and couldn't see tha snakes. I didn't hear any music, I don't know if the problem is on my side :/  Other than that, great job!

Thank you very much! Agreed on the ending being confusing, I spent too much time making the last level. I think, you could consider it a puzzle in its own right :)

Also, there isn't any music, I just put "Yes" for the audio submission question, since silence isn't someone else's property, but thinking about it, it isn't really mine either :D

Really hard and challenging especially without a tutorial, but I liked the idea. Thanks I enjoyed it!
