Really nice take on the theme, i had fun playing it but starting the whole game from scratch when dying feld very punitive. Still pretty good.

Nice take on snake, it is fun having to plan out your path beforehand. The rats are a nice addition too, but having them restart the game from the very beginning seems too much. Nice job anyway!

What a cool take on a snake game! The graphics are nice and those rat sprites were well made! It was fun being able to look at a level in the first few levels and assess the best path! Then when the rats get introduced it added a real sense of danger because  then you don't get the luxury of being able to process the map beforehand which was a fun way to shake things up! I enjoyed this a lot and thought that your digging sfx were great as well! Wonderful game!!

Cool spin on a classic snake game. The rodents were a bit unforgiving as they made me start over while the reset-button only sent me to start of the level. Other than that it's a good simple game.

Cute art and very very playable. Nicely done.

I forgot I was a plant and tried to eat the rat lol.

This is a fun game! It's an interesting take on the Snake mechanics, and the puzzles are deceptively tricky! The rodents add a great sense of danger as well. 

My one piece of feedback, it did become a little tedious to have to press the direction arrow every time to move. Besides that however, it's a really enjoyable game with a clever concept!

Nice game! I did not like being nibbled by the rodents  😅 Is there a trick to escaping them?

Cool! This small plant really grows a lot! :)

I'm sorry, but how do I play? there isn't much instructions, and i've pressed every button i could think of to make him move or grow... please let me know how to play.

You should move by the arrow keys. Then once you collect the pickups, you can go to the top and progress to the next level.

Let me know if that still doesn't work, cause that would suck if I submitted a game where the controls don't work!
