Oh wow this game is unique, and very cute
I am a bit of spastic with the controls but once I figured it out I love the gameplay loop!

As a pixel art lover, this is one of my favorite game here! I love the idea and control of the head mode here. Its very interesting and the presentation is very great too!

Up To Your Neck In BeerSuper impressive pixel art. It looks like a DS game! Its a little hard to control the snake outside of the shell, I wish it was controlled with the mouse instead of keys.

Nine SliceVery interesting concept. Fits the theme in a very wacky way. Love the art and sound design! I think something broke because snails stopped appearing on wave 4.

Nine SliceWhat a delightfully strange game. I really enjoyed this, very creative and pretty satisfying to get into the shells and eat the snails

World EaterI love the "twist" of your game ;P
Some little tweaks and it can become a full game base on the head mechanic :D

Scales of OlympusWhat an absolute banger of a game. Amazing visuals and music. Super engaging gameplay and an idea that couldn't think of in my wildest dreams. I foresee your game in marks video and I'm not even kidding.
At one point I encountered a bug tho - I ate a sould, but it did not kill the snailien and I had to restart the game.

Dragon's Scalethanks!
The neck is a Godot line2d made our of points with a repeating texture. To make the backtracking effect I delete the topmost point and snap the player to its position
I also spawn rigidbody2ds every couple of points that I link to a points position, that way if you push your own neck it reacts accordingly
Really cool game! I loved the art, and the concept is so bizarre, but amazing! I did encounter a bug where the alien disappeared from the first red slug shell, and I couldn't continue. Besides that, the game was great!

Hungry HollowI really loved the concept of an ever growing neck making its way inside mazes. The graphics and effects are on point!
