Interesting idea with classic game, control a lit bit hard to turn. Good job!
Interesting take on a classic game, loved to control the earthquake, the turning felt a bit off tho, but still pretty solid, the screeshake while demolishing a house or building was really cool
Nice idea, well executed! Great sfx, bro!
This was interesting idea. Reminded me of a similar mechanic in "Donut County", where a hole tried to swallow the entire town. Maybe a next iteration could include a AOE attack from the head as the epicenter, to topple down buildings as some kind of supermove.
That's a neat idea. I was also thinking that having fuel tanks/gas stations that explode would be cool. Donut County wasn't really an inspiration for this, but I did think of it when I started seeing the buildings fall into the hole lol.
Building exploding due to fuel then becomes a combo multiplayer and will add a lot of visual candy to the game.
Very interesting take on the snake game, definitely had fun playing it :D
The only think I would change is maybe tone down a bit the screen shaking, the fact that it was occurring right as I was trying to make a turn would sometimes make me crash into water.
Also liked the small touches to the UI with the small houses.
Good job!
Glad you enjoyed it. I agree that the screen shake can be distracting, and will definitely try to balance it better if I do another iteration.
This was awesome!!! The way that the music starts is SO GOOD and then the music and sound fox just stay really top notch! The controls felt good and this was a really creative interpretation of a classic game! Super fun and well put together! Great job!
Wow best 'snake' type of game I've played! I loved the music and how different sound effects were tied to the different buildings! Very fun game, great job!
One bit of feedback, It was sometimes a little difficult to tell where the 'head' of the disaster was so occasionally I would fail to turn in time because I thought I was one square behind where I actually was.
All in all very fun game! I really enjoyed playing
Yeah, I was never fully satisfied with the player movement. Eventually I just called it good-enough due to time. I'll definitely re-work it if I ever revisit this. I wish there was a way to directionally animate a tile going on to a tilemap.
