The art is very cute and is well presented.

The music is very chill and fits the visuals well.

The game is just snake, but that's not necessarily a bad thing.

Nice work.

Developer

Thank you  so much !

A cute little reimagination of the good ol' classic, I actually really liked the aesthetics of the game, the colours were really pretty. Also I LOVE the lil dust guys, they were adorable :)

Thanks a lot ! :)

Thank you !

Loved the vibes and the tunes. Great implementation of a classic.

Thank you so much !

A very stylish rendition of snake! The graphics are really neat, and I was pleasantly surprised to hear a Phillip Glass inspired tune in this game! Gameplay-wise, it would be cool to see some sort of new twist or extra feature added to the gameplay, but it's still pretty fun as it currently stands!

Well done!

Thank you so much !

Artstyle and music are so cool. Love the idea of being on a computer, would be a fun touch if windows would pop up as you play, or in general for the game to interact more with the player.  More sounds would also make big difference, mostly for UI sounds and the snake eating imo. Great work

Developer

Thanks a lot ! I didn't have the time but I would love to do a post jam update with more interactive sounds and animations ! :)

Submitted

Love the visuals and the "neon pastelle" user interface look! I don't know if it was just for me but I couldn't hear the audio until I put my volume onto maximum. EIther way good job!

Developer

Thank you so much ! Weird for the audio, some people said it was too loud ? Anyway next time I'll add sound control so it can match everyone preferences :)

Submitted

Such a nice artstyle, the game looks so good! I like the interpretation of snake - although to me it looks like the levels and different stars don't really do anything? Maybe to make the game different from the original snake, make the different stars have different effects or something.

Well done :)

Developer(+1)

Thank you for your feedback ! It does but it's maybe a bit too subtile, the stars earning points are different (yellow = 10, pink = 20 and purple = 30), and each time you lvl up, the snake goes faster (and the stars earning points increase)

Submitted

Very nice art, good job on the entry!

Developer(+1)

Thank you so much ! :)

Submitted

It's snake with amazing spritework :)

Developer(+1)

Thanks ! Yes my objective was to learn more code, so I went for something simple :)

Submitted

Gorgeous sprites. Good job!

Developer

Thanks a lot ! 

Submitted

The simple esthetic and colors are great! I was a bit confused as i didn't notice anything happening when i would get a level up.

Developer

Thank you for your feedback ! It looks like it a bit too subtile, the stars points increase and the snake speed increases as well :)

Submitted

love the design style and colour scheme, but would have been better to have a tutorial on the controls and how to use it, as it was confusing at first.

Developer

Thank you for your feedback ! What kind of keyboard do you have ?

Submitted

im on a mac/apple laptop

Great visual design. Would be nice to have sound settings, music is a bit too loud.

Developer

Thank you for your feedback ! Indeed I didn't have the time to make sound control, but I'll do it next time ! (probably will update this game in a post game jam as well)

Submitted

Love the art, felt the controls were a bit clunky, it does affect a lot the gamefeel.

But good snake take!

Developer

Thank you for your feedback ! I understand, what controls did you use ? (what kind of keyboard do you have ?)

Submitted(+1)

I like the art! That being said, this is just Snake. Was hoping for a more original game

Submitted(+1)

true, this is just a basic snake game. As I didn't have that much time, I made a snake game as well, but with some twists where different items have their own effects.

Submitted

Very cute art! I love the coal sprites and the sugar stars looked tasty :P

Developer(+1)

Thank you so much !! Yesssss I would love to try them, apparently they are real candies in Japan ! :)

Submitted

Konpeitō are what they are called! Hot Topic sometimes have them or if you have an Asian grocery store like H-Mart or 99 Ranch near you they also sell them! They are just rock sugar and I've never had flavored ones but the crunch is so satisfying XD
