ok. the snake is the paddle. That's it. I'll leave the other posts just for science. The creator can see what an initial playthrough might be like. Most people will probably get this right off the bat. For whatever reason I didn't. Even though I've played snake and brick breaker plenty, and read the instructions here, I still didn't get that the snake was the paddle. I think it was the first thing I tried but when I still died half a second later I assumed that meant it wasn't the goal. Didn't realize the bottom line was a "hole". Thought it looked like another wall so didn't make the connection. In fullscreen it shows a line on the bottom anyways. So, cool game, hope my feedback helps or entertains at least. Still way too fast paced for me but I still like the concept now that I get what's happening.
Hey Scisnien, thanks for the feedback. I made this game quickly in my spare time so I didn't think every aspect through completely but your comments were not only entertaining but valuable. I'll add some more details to the instruction write-up so that this hopefully doesn't happen again for others. Thanks for playing my game :)
