A fellow snake-reverser! Great presentation! Visuals and audio are great! At first I couldn't figure out the apple kicking, so I was focused on running circles around the snake. Then I figured out how to kick fruit and that changed everything! Nicely done :)

I felt bad kicking the apples around the snake ; P
I didn't get that far (kept dying) but is it possible for the snake to loose by eating it's own tail?
Because that could be cool!

Results PleaseAn addicting game with polished graphics and a clever twist on the classic snake concept. The voice lines and ability to guide the snake makes the game really addicting. Although I had a slight learning curve at the beginning, the overall experience was fantastic. Good job!

MirrorHeartReally fun game.
Had some low-key horror vibes with the sound of the snake, and the anxiety of running away from something.
Best I got was 9.

Walk the Boy HomeI love how, unlike a lot of other snake games this jam, your entry retains the natural increasing difficulty of the ever lengthening snake. Well done.

Doors: The GameExtremely fun game. I would have enjoyed it a bit more if the object we passed over didn't slow us down. Overall, I liked it. Good job!

Trappy BirdThis is incredibly fun and addicting! Probably the best gameplay of any reverse snake game I've played so far in the jam. (one of which I made!)
The snake is implemented in a great way. Its acceleration and speed are absolutely perfect for this gameplay, which makes the game very fast-paced. It's almost faster than you, which makes it feel threatening.
The food-kicking mechanic is masterfully designed and implemented. Because the food lures the snake away from you, it's beneficial to kick the food away from the snake. However, you get points when the snake eats the food, so kicking it directly into the snake is beneficial. This way, kicking the food almost always results in a good outcome, and makes you feel like a wizard. The mechanic is also polished and satisfying.
The voicelines are goofy and the art is very impressive for a game jam this short. Great job :)
Btw. the volume slider doesn't work on browser.

FoodReally fun although I had some brain lag at the beginning and didn' understand what to do (even though it was so clear).They graphics of the game as well as the itch io page are really nice put together! My highscore was 16! (I am not so good at these kind of games)
The sounds of the snake made it a little scary but definitley not unpleasant to play! Great work in general!
Some things I have stumbled across and would like to see fixed in an update:
- the music in the start screen has a weird bug when waiting too long or pressing start
- I think you move a little faster when moving diagonally
- that's it! Great game and good luck!
Thanks again for the comment under our game!
