I'm not sure what's going on... the start screen kept reappearing and the game resets and then I froze on the screen below.

Am I supposed to collect the dots? Why are there snakes if this is a Parakeet game? I know there was the whole explanation thing at the beginning, but I'm not sure I understood any of it.

The colors are pretty, the humor went over my head (my reflexes were too slow), and now my browser and I are having an existential crisis. 10/10


yes, there's a secret snakes vibe mode you can enter, which we cunningly mapped to the S key.

It kills your computer because we never remove apples from the scene when you collect one, so we removed any reference to this game mode in the documentation.

Unfortunately people expecting wasd controls are going to accidentally press s.


Moral of the story: we removed the documentation for a reason. Use mouse controls, don't push s.

Oh! That makes more sense, haha. I do think that WASD would have been better because the mouse controls are a bit finicky, but now I get what's going on. :)

I like the death message, very dismissive and written in english that I can't read.

But choice of input controls is very questionable and makes it so easy to die from any accidental twitch in the wrong direction. 

WSAD would have been more fitting imo
