Okay, this ones pretty great. I like the basic snake premise with the extra twists you put on, and the level of polish you gave this in terms of ui and art is amazing. Well done.

The music has to be my favorite part about this game. It was really well done!
are the characters in the intro ocs of some sort they looks so cool omg
Really fun. A cool twist on the classic snake game plus the art and music is fantastic. Great job!
Excellent game! Of all the eat your tail games i think this might be the most creative one, and also must fun to play. It has a puzzle feel to it, "what are the closest runes i can get to with this size" without feeling too difficult, and also has a real time element, without being too punishing. im glad you dont lose by hitting the walls. i can definetly see this being a full fledged game if you want, there are avenues you can explore with different obstacles (some may move or teleport etc) and you can also expand the puzzle (ordered runes, or runes that change the layout, etc)
it would also work well in phones.
For an easier mode i could also suggest it only moving when you click for example.
great job, great game
Love the art and the ambience for it. Got stuck on the part where you need 6 to progress, but other than that, it's pretty straightforward and nice interpretation on the theme!
Cool game, I was confused at first but quickly figured it out. Great art as well, kudos to the artist!
Took me a second to figure out what to do, but then it was fun, great job! be on the target number of runes THEN eat your tail
Franchement le jeu est très cool, c'est une super take bien originale sur snake !
Je dirais juste que les niveaux sont parfois bizarrement équilibrés et que c'est assez facile de se soft-lock, mais franchement sinon la DA est absolument sublime et le concept est génial. Bravo à vous !
I had a huge fixation on Norse mythology in high school, particularly wrt Loki and their children, so this speaks to me on a pretty deep level, especially the framing of Loki's family as something more than "end game ragnarok threats" which most media and adaptation seems to overly focus on.
very thankful of you for this feedback ! Its nice to read this, i personnaly wanted to represent them first as a familly (a weird familly perhaps !). This hasn't got in the jam version but we will add Powers from each familly member that Jörgmungand can use in his quest one time after needding to recharge them by some way (didn't decide quite how yet). I wanted to represent this through gameplay !
Impressive feat of teamwork. I couldn't figure out how to hold 6 runes and had to stop there, but it was quite enjoyable and pretty game.
This is a GAME JAM SUBMISSION! Lovely art work and presentation absolutely gorgeous i was at it for a long time level 9
Loved the fact that is playable on a smartphone! It gabe me the opportunity to play while in lunch!





that is the screenshot i got the 7 and then it started bugging out. IM NOT A LIAR
