You can download the game for your device and maybe you will find a small difference from the classic snake :)

This is okay. I liked the idea at first, but the execution was a bit lacking.

The entire thing about snake is that it moves on its own. But I later realised that you made this way so you could wait on the switch timer so that the other head didnt run out of body. Thats clever, but counterintuitive.

The artstyle is really good, and I notieced that this is a Unity Premium game, which is something you dont see much in jam games apart from large teams.

A v2 should focus on explaining the concept of this. And maybe you should turn it into a puzzler somehow, since it's kinda hard seeing it as an arcade game.

Overall, I would say 3/5, its good, and fits the theme, but can be improved in so many ways.

Yeah thanks for the feedback. Had some issues with the team since our artist dropped out last minute so we got started rather late with the game so we didn’t get to implement all the features we wanted.

The Unity Premium isn’t that big of a deal since anyone who still goes to school can get it for free via GitHub Education.

Yeah and I was also thinking of doing a V2 after the jam ends but idk how the others feel about this.

Thanks again, Tarsier

I really liked the concept of this! Unfortunately, the Web version did not work for me but the downloadable version worked just fine! Great work :D

I liked the concept, but I feel like it was too detatched from snake. Part of the fun of snake is that the game moves at its own pace and I think that would have worked really well with this switching directions concept. Also some of my inputs were getting eaten and the web version never loaded and I had to download it.

Thanks for the feedback! The reason the snake doesn’t move at its own pace is because you might not always have enough body to get through 15 seconds which ultimately makes you loose rather early in the game.

Thanks again, Tarsier

Nice art, but movement & controls are a bit laggy and the gameplay is lacking depth. Overall it's good game though, brings me back to classic nokia snake game
