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.

Great game! Smooth mechanics, no bugs, overall just a clean smooth experience. Great job!
(and of course I have to promote my own game, so if you have a minute, I'd really appreciate if you tried mine)
Really great job with this! It felt so polished that I wouldn't believe it was a jam game if I didn't find it here. The tension between using the snake to defeat enemies while also running from it in terror is very thrilling and not a concept I've seen used much in games.
Awesome game! Feels really good to play, the art is really good, and all the music is a banger!
Extremely polished gameplay and super addicting to keep playing! Massive props to you for even managing to incorporate some awesome BGMs too!
Wow wow! Absolute hidden gem of a game this jam. This game is so super polished and plays so nicely. I love that you took such a simple concept of "snake but you're the pellet" and turned it into a great mechanic-filled bullet hell. You also have so many extra QoL features like changeable music and tips on the gameover screen. Sweeeet!
Thanks for the kind words! And nice score, level 13 is pretty solid! It definitely starts to get pretty hectic towards the higher levels. :)
Super creative take on the theme and the execution of everything is so unique and coherent. Honestly this is more fun than normal snake, big ups!!
Congrats on having one of the most polished games I've come across in the jam. I honestly don't have many notes, the controls are tight, the difficulty doesn't spike too fast but keeps me on my toes, the art assets look great and everything looks cohesive. Seriously well done!
So much going on! So creative! So complicated! HOW WAS THIS MADE IN 2 DAYS?!!!!!!!!?!!?!?!?!??!?!?!?!
Overall, so so so fun.
Would play this game on a daily basis.
Snake but you are the pellet fits the theme perfectly.
having the bugs as an enemy seems off at first but the snake being able to eat them makes a lot of sense and leads to some pretty clever gameplay dynamics, well done
Great entry! Loved the Ai and I jammed to music 3 and music 4!
The game mechanics are fantastic, and the way the snake devours the insects makes perfect sense, well done!
Nice entry! good AI and nice movement
Cool game, best snake based game I've played, great job!
Plays very smooth! I really like that you can lure the snake to eat the bugs shooting pellets. Great job!
Cool idea for the theme!
Plays very smooth as well!
Fantastic role reversal. Avoiding the snake ai is really interesting. The new obstacles added every few seconds adds a lot to the game. Great arcade style game. Good job!
This is the one. This is my favorite reversed snake I've seen so far. Excellent job!
Thanks! I wasn't watching the Discord so I didn't realize there were going to be so many snake games, lol. :)
Fantastic game, it is a lot of fun. I really like the snack eating the bugs mechanic. Fantastic job.
Very cool! Great Job! I saw a similar idea, but this game performed even better
To anyone who thought to avoid this fearing yet another snake game... Play this game and have no fear. What a great game! It's very creative and really really compelling. I love it!
