your feedback helped me realize there was actually something weird going on with the controls — the body of the snake kinda pulled back on the head, which made it misbehave quite a lot… I’m not sure if that’s exactly what you were experiencing, but I greatly appreciate your feedback anyway.
I’ll definitely add tank controls, I think that would feel much better. and I’ll consider mouse controls — I’m a bit skeptical, but we’ll see.
reward for clearing red things… that’s an interesting thought, I’ll try to come up with something.
I get your complaint about the timer, it’s not great, I mainly added it to prevent the game from going on forever. I’m working on changing the entire timer/hunger dynamic to make the game more approachable, hoping to introduce a more interesting difficulty curve.
thank you very much!
