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.

This is such a great example of a simple and obvious idea being pushed into something far beyond. Gameplay is challenging yet well balanced and the game is fun to play with tight controls. It is honestly impressive how well the elements work together considering how simple each one is. And good job with that snake AI, it actually does what you want it to.
If there are any future updates planned in my opinion separate stages or at least some form of checkpoints would be nice, whilst the "tutorial" is well done, replaying it does get a little old after the fifth time.
The game will be receiving a post-jam update allowing you to start at any level you've cleared. Hopefully that should help alleviate some of the slowness of the early levels. Thanks for your comment!
Love the bullet hell aspect! Also the snake AI is amazing.
Very well executed game! In my first gameplay I was just dodging, but once I read the game over tip and the description the game turned into something very different! The risk and reward of trying to use the snake to eat my enemies was a very fun twist and it got me going for risky plays. Nice looking art and cool music. Solid entry!
i havent seen anyone else take on the idea of snake and bullet hell, really unique concept! its really fun albeit a bit difficult
I had lots of fun playing this (probably will come back to play some more). The difficulty scaling (pun intended) is just right.
Reached level 10 on first try ! I loved that you rated the performance on the losing screen ahah. Cool addition to a really fun game, well executed
Good job!
