How does your game fit the theme?
You play as Jörgmungand, the nordic self-eating snake. The goal is to activate runes to be able to eat your tail and grow in size !

Love the game gameplay is great, "music" gets more satisfying while the snake grows.
Thanks ! Why did you put music in double quote ? I'm curious
From frog to frog - no particular reason ... my brain plays sometimes tricks on me... while i was writing i was thinking simulatneously if i should call it audio, but came to the conclusion that it was actually music ... and somehow the "" ended up... (it happens frequently that i leave out words when writing etc.)
I like this interpretation of the snake. The art is amazing!
Thank you a lot ! I'll tell the artists, i'm sure they'll be happy !
Satisfaying when you become really huge =)
Yes, we want to do more levels at first. But time runs out and we finally can't. Maybe in a later game update, who knows !
I must admit, I especially enjoyed the artworks and the lore behind the game.
I'm not found of snake but you brought it into a very different background and it delivers well.
As Znerol said, the part of the tail that must be bitten could have used an indicator. But it's not hard to guess where you should bite anyway.
Our artists were the best for this jam ! They did a great work on the game !!! Thk for the feedback, we will do some updates on the game after the voting week ! Feel free to comeback when the update is released !
Wow, it's so good! I love the mechanics, the music and the whole vibe of this game! The artwork is amazing! I really enjoyed that one :D
Thk you a lot !!! Frogs are always rights :D
I really enjoyed the light spatial puzzling of moving around your own body. Visuals and sound were lovely too
Thanks !!!
I drive my heart & soul on this spatial puzzling TwT Thank a lot for your feedback !!!
Nice take on the snake classic, it is pretty addictive! (Oh and these illustrations are beautiful)
Thanks for playing the game !
An interesting take on snake. Some of the levels were quite challenging, and the art design is really good. I got stuck at the beginning of one of the levels and had to start over, but that's understandable for a jam game. Good job!
Oh ! I didn't thought it was possible. I tried to test and repair as many softlocks as possibles with the level design. Thk for the feedback ! The team will be happy, i will tell them !
This style has so much flavour. Dragons are better than snakes anyways.
Awesome game.
Our artists have done a fantastic job!!! Without them, the game would never be as good as it is today. Dragons are just winged snakes, I prefer snakes that are the size of Midgard (+ he's cute). :p
I can feel you.
Except for the snake part, we will never see eye-to-eye on this take ;)
Nice twist on the snake formula! Great usic :)
Thk ! The old Nokia 3310 is proud of this project i think xD (I will tell our composer of your happy feedback ! She will be happy)
Enjoyable little game with a good concept, I had a fun time with the gameplay of finding the shortest route and then chasing my tail to reduce the loop length. Quite replayable to speedrun once you figure out where the best loops for each level are, with nice artwork and sound design.
Nice ! Its pleasant to see people wanting to get the best score. What time did you get ? I was happy of my 155s time, but someone crush it like 1h after the game release xD
Loved the art, and the music is great!
Yeah ! Our Composer is really good, i love her work (Thk a lot for this feedback, i hope she will see it tomorrow)
Excellent update of the Snake concept, I enjoyed it!
thk a lot ! We did not really want to do an update of the snake initially. But never reinvent the wheel, just upgrade it ! It was really fun to do and also really stressful for the last jam hour lol
Took me 492s to eat my own tail, which is the most time i will spend in my life being a Nordic snake I think. Nice execution of the theme!
THK LEO !!!! I am thrill to play your game, the jam was so exhausting. I think i will go in bed for two days ! To reassure you, my roommate took over 1000s to complete the game (and someone took only 93s gosh) !
Really like your take on the theme! You got interesting mechanic and nice visuals, especially procedural snake :)
Thk !! Our Snake hypnotise me to much. I think i lots like 15 minutes in editor roaming with him xD
I spent the morning cursing while trying to eat my own butt.
"Snake, but with an order of operations" was pretty neat! Very satisfying when the camera panned out to show a larger world. Would have appreciated the eatable portion of my tail being highlighted while my required runes were met, because the dark colors of the tail and body made it hard to differentiate between them which could be frustrating on especially tight turns. Enjoyed the character art.
What a caption ! I think i need this to be written on my grave... Your feedback is really neat, we didn't notice this at all (we were too much focus on other stuff of the game). After the uploads are back, we're going to upload a 1.1 version of the game with this kind of update ! Thk you to enjoy our game <3
Nice idea! would be lovely to adjust music volume.
Thanks for your feedback ! Yup the volume balance needs some adjustments x)
Excellente idée j'ai essayé pendant plusieurs minutes sans atteindre la fin s'il y en a une, c'est addictif et efficace !
oh merci !!
Great game. You even made it fit last GMTKs Jam theme, what a flex.
Thanks for your comment. The theme was interesting, and personally, I didn't participate in last year's jam. It's one way to do it anyway, haha.
Artwork is awesome. Procedural animation is always great love to see it :) The tail could use some indicator where to bite exactly. Otherwise great entry :)
Hi ! Thk for the feedback, its a great idea :D
