Really nice gameplay loop, and also neat pixel art
Nice concept! I like the presentation.
Interesting concept, feels like like some kinda roguelike. I got a wierd bug, somehow I've managed to step on a snake, so her body as at the same cell as me. Also, when the game begins it lags for some time
Very fun and interesting concept! I absolutely adore the style and had a lot of fun with this.
Incredibly entertaining take on the theme. Having to chop the snakes and trying not to be eaten by them at the same time keeps the player very close to them, but not too much and is therefore a really cool game design decision. I liked the game very much!
Is it me or is this game very challenging? :D I managed to get around 1200 points, but couldn’t get any further. There are way too many snakes and they don’t want to stop following me. :D
I’m almost sure there should be some starts to play better, but I failed to find it. It looks like I’m supposed to attack the snake from its tail, otherwise, I would create a new snake, but it’s tricky to pull off (especially when you’re being chased by another snake).
The graphics are neat too.
Very original idea based on the jam theme. Tha game was a bit difficult, but to be a jam game I think this is not a big deal, so good job!
Cute game with great pixel art and interesting concept! The jump felt a bit slow and the snake movements were pretty unpredictable which made it pretty hard, but overall it was well implemented!
I like this one a lot! Very clever use of the theme. It was a bit challenging, I had to try hard a bit hehe. Well done!
This is my favorite role swap of the original snake game. Attacking the snack as the apple and have it split into pieces was really challenging to handle. It felt like it had a good balance of run away and attack to it as well. I did run into issues with once a snake split, sometimes it would permanently agro me which made it challenging to go after any other snake parts.
thx, I will have a look into that bug after the jam. Hitting the snake should put it in a state which makes if flee for a but though, and if it is unsuccesfull at attacking for 20 turns (which might be a bit long) it will start looking for a heal.
Pretty good
This is actually pretty fun. The way you got around the problem of killing the snakes is pretty clever. 5/5 creativity.
Honestly this is one of the most original takes on the apple-snake swap idea ive seen. Making it an incentive to go near the snakes and chop em in half gets around the problem that most of the apple-snake swap games have. Eg. you arent just always running away from the snake. Good job! better than redline.
