Cool game. I also did a reverse-snake style game, so clearly great minds think alike, eh? :)
There should probably be a penalty for letting food fall off the board. I managed to win on my first try by trying to keep a cluster of food bunched together, and intentionally pushing food that fell far away off the board so the snake couldn't get them.
It'd also be nice if the snake tried to move towards your food instead of randomly.
I like the 3d graphics and it's cool how the food can actually 'bounce' and get stuck in weird ways if it falls on top of other food, for instance. Nice job!
Haha clearly!
Thanks and great suggestions! I never though about penalizing the food falling off board more than just reducing "active food" score, so that would be a nice twist. As for the snake moving towards the food I changed it because I felt the game was too difficult then.
Honestly I haven't managed to win yet so I already gambled with making the game too hard haha, so congrats on wining on the first try, I'm speechless :D
A difficult but interesting design that adds another way of reversing the hungry snake game.
Thanks, I'm looking forward to seeing how other approached it :)
Very Fun and Simple.
Thanks! :)
