Good work. although found a game as similar to this one, still a great idea nevertheless

Developer

You're right, I've looked up "snake" and "apple" on filter game submissions and there is almost a hundred other similar games, and I thought I had an "original" idea. :(

For only a few hours work, it sounds like, a good effort. I think "snake but you play as the apple" could work quite well as an idea but I think right now its a bit too easy to force the snake to go back in to itself - just move parallel to the snake and reverse direction and it'll kill itself. It would be a simple fix to fix that but I think there would be the issue of the snake being too good in getting you. Maybe the best version of this game plays more like Pac Man where you're in a maze and the snake has a personality where it isn't always trying to kill you? Hmm, not sure, but you've inspired me to think about it.

Developer

I thought of turning up the difficulty during development but strangely none of the people I had playtest thought of moving parallel to the snake usually trying out live the snake or run into it’s body and have the head follow it, Ty for the feedback tho

It’s a good game, but for one, it requires Python to be installed, and secondly, it seems to end a round or something for no clear reason.

Developer (1 edit)

yea, I missed the first day and most of the second day and I didn’t know how to run pygame on the browser also learning pygame during the jam was probably a terrible idea. The round ends if you or the snake touches a wall and no point, if the snakes length reaches 0 or you get it to eat itself then the round ends and you get a point. Sometimes when a round ends the apple and snake get spawned close to a wall and die immediately. Thanks for the feedback tho :)

I believe Pyinstaller could work for this.

Developer

Thanks, I’ll look into it
