How does your game fit the theme?
It's like Snake, except you play as the Pellet. Additionally, the role of the snake as an enemy and friend are reversed, as not only is it a threat, but it is also your only defense against other enemies.

It was fun I loved it
Well, I had to come back... Enjoyed the game too much and wanted to see what was at level 15. Hoping this is a world record run and can start my future career as a Pellet eSports player (okay maybe not).
Congrats! Thrilled to see that you liked the game enough to come back.
Although someone early in the comments claimed to have reached level 22, with no photographic proof, I think we can crown you as the rank #1 Pellet player for now.
Now that's what I'm talking about!
Very well-designed gameplay. I love how the snake serves many purposes in the game, whether as an enemy, a barricade, and even as a weapon you manipulate to control the chaos in the game field!
The pixel art is clean and simple and matches the game's concept really well too! Really nice game!
Cool idea. Definitely didn't expect it to be a bullet hell but it works well
Really amazing game. The choice of music is great. I left it on the main menu and was doing my work while listening to the game's music. Really nice usage of the theme. The pixel art is really crisp and the game is fascinatingly easy to understand. Really enjoyed playing this.
Fantastic combination of the snake genre and the bullet hell genre. Well done!
This will be a really cool mobile game! Look into it also into our game!
one of the best games on the jam I found so far
This was a lot of fun and got really chaotic with what felt to me a reasonable difficulty ramp. I enjoyed playing through a couple of times. The furthest I was able to get was level 14.
This game is so fun. I loved playing it.
Actually i didn't expect such a cool game.Definitely has interesting mechanics and also has perfect idea.İt looks difference.
Very engaging, and with surprising depth in balancing threats and using them against one another.
Amazing entry.
Great entry! Love how step-by-step there was a small ecosystem building app, adding some interesting risk/reward scenarios like standing close to an enemy in order to lead the snakes to them while still trying to avoid the enemies attacks. The player character also felt great to control as it was so fast and small, which helped with avoiding enemies and projectiles. One of my favorite games of the jam, well done!
Real good game. I like that the snake is both our enemy and our ally!
Great job.
The best snake game entry! after a while it becomes very hard and becomes really fun!
A cute game that now you are a little food for the snakes and bugs, it ramp-up slowly and will become a bullet hell like game if you don't let the bug get eaten quickly. It's super polished and well-made, love the game.
There's a few games like this, but this one is AMAZING. It's very addictive and polished! I found a bug where at first only the W key worked, but after I died, it was fixed! The artwork is also really great!
Really good concept, loved it!
Cute little game. Felt a little slow-paced in the beginning, but managed to find a good difficulty after a little bit.
When the third snake entered the game, I started to experience a small amount of lag on snake movement frames, maybe there’s some room for optimization in that code?
Yes, the snake's pathfinding is not particularly well optimized. I'll be going back and improving that after the jam, shouldn't be too hard. Just ran out of time. :D
Thanks for your comment!
Great game! The graphics are really good, the snake graphic is awesome, but the pellet is kinda lame, it would be nice to see some animation. The music is great, reminds me of the arcade games, but the sfx could be a bit louder. I really like the games wide variety of entities, great game design! Overall an amazing game, especially for a 48 hour jam!
