Fun! Would like to request more variety in wildlife on the planet! Maybe add some enemies! The jump is a big addition. Resolution and customization issues on mobile :( .

I can't even imagine how many hours of snake I played on my Nokia, but it was a lot. Whole bus rides would fly by in an instant.
Your World Serpent absolutely captures the originals immersion. On the smaller worlds, for the first time in my life, I experienced motion sickness which can only be an immersion positive!! In my mind, the gameplay is perfect and the jump mechanic is a great addition. On large worlds its a whole bunch of fun following your tail just to see how crazy long it gets. I died so many times from being greedy and going for a crab too close to my tail and not turning quick enough; again, just like original snake. Had fun playing this!
You definitely nailed the price-point, and your store page absolutely matches the game. Good job.
Thanks! Sounds like you had lots of fun with it.
I also had problem with motion sickness at first. Tried making small planets a larger and snake a bit slower on them to reduce overal rotation of the screen but I guess I just got used to it. Totally forgot it still might be a problem. I should consider putting warning massage somewhere.
That was pretty cool! Especially when the snake gets reeeeeal long. Lost it when I saw the crab leg thing xD
Some issues I encountered:
- The framerate was pretty low in wine, CPU bottleneck. But the web player seemed smooth enough, and it ran nicely on Windows. Ryzen 7 3700x / GTX 1060 / 32 GB
- The UI gets cut off at 3440x1440, so I switched to 1920x1080 for my playthrough.
Commentary:
I'll circle back for ratings after my thoughts have time to marinate.
