This is brilliant. I would never have thought to make snake into a puzzle game, but it works so well. Short and sweet. I also think the sound design works super well.
My only suggestion is that I wish the graphics were a little better, but for a game jam game it's totally expected. I love the style of the title/end screen art, wish the game itself looked like that.
I would love to see a longer version of this! I think you took some great simple mechanics and made them work well together.
I really like the water/deep water mechanic, and that you can change your size and shed and stuff, really fun game.
Loved the game and concept, I think I experienced a few bugs where the snake would not shed scales, reloading the page seemed to solve it for a time. Great submission.
Great take on the theme and really good level design. Nice job!
great puzzle game!
love the art style!!! Its very simplistic, we have a similar vibe going on with our games :D
Who doesn't like the snake game? With a nicely added twist and hardness to the classic game, this is so much fun to play! I had to stop myself from playing it. Great job!
Becoming longer is the dream of many. Cool graphics!
I adore the minimalist design of this, very well done!
A cute way of turning snake into a puzzle game, I quite enjoyed this one.
Cool puzzles! I got stuck on level 3. I wish I could turn back with the little snake, if I got stuck somewhere, he couldn't back track. Congrats on your submission!:)
This was a fun game! I also really liked the color palette, made the game feel relaxing while my brain overheated trying to solve some of the puzzles lol
Nice smooth controls! fun idea.
I enjoyed this game a lot! Really creative mechanics and thoughtful puzzle design. Great job!
Really loved this game! The puzzles were great, really nice level design! Amazing work! 👍
This is such a cool idea for a puzzle, it was really fun to figure out. I agree with the other commenters - I wish there were more levels
This was such a clever game, the puzzles were unique and well designed for the shedding mechanic. I wish there were more levels to play!
I love the puzzles! Great job!
Cool concept and like the widgets!
very interesting concept! I wish there were a few more levels, it felt like you've only scratched the surface and that there's a lot more interesting puzzles to come. Awesome job for 96 hours, congrats to the team!
