How does your game fit the theme?
You grow a snake game in 3d space. The body pieces that grow will disconnect if you're not careful enough and make it more difficult to collect more peices

I have two major problems with it:

  1. It is difficult to tell depth, there should be textures on the walls.
  2. The awkward movement controls combined with the standard camera controls make it difficult to navigate.

Cool concept.

Submitted

A classic revisited, very on brand for the theme.

Unfortunately, I don't have a controller, and the game is really hard to play with a keyboard, but I can see the potential.

Good job! =)

Submitted

Cool concept!

Submitted

3D snake is a cool concept, nice hype music!

Submitted

pretty interesting game! the art its simple, but also cool. the theme implementation is good too. However, the controls are kinda weird. I liked the game tho.(I couldn’t get more than 3 points lol)

Submitted

Neat idea! Seems fun but I can't seem to get the hang of it.

Fun idea, took a while to get to grip with the controls but that could just be me! Different speed (difficulty) options could be a good way to get to grips with the game. Nice submission, especially for your first jam!

Nice game, the controls are ... not ... intuitive.

Hey ! Made it to 388 !
Used the power a lot to balance with the bit difficult movement handling, I think it may be cause by two things for me :

  1. Using the up input to go down freeze my brain every time and I do mess up a bit
  2. The fact that the head doesn't really always look where you go and that the turn is not always horizontal or vertical but based on where you're actually looking make the prediction of your movement a bit hard

Other than that ! It's a really good idea and I actually enjoyed trying to reach the higher score !

I didn't get time to code the controls for the keyboards and mouse so I just mapped them to the controller inputs. I will need to come up with a different control scheme option for the game, since the majority thought the controls were confusing :D


Thanks for playing and the feedback! and good luck :D

The controls are a bit difficult. Nice idea though.

Had me in stitches this one. The controls were mental in the best possible way. I really felt the desire to keep chasing my high score. 2d snake ... is dead to me. Nice work.

Cool concept but the controls are difficult

Submitted(+1)

This got my head spinning! Very fun and clever take on the classic

Submitted

Controls are hard. Maybe if I was a pilot. Music is pretty good. Concept is solid too

Submitted

Congrats on completing your first jam! That's quite an accomplishment. One thing I think you could improve is making the controls a a bit easier. I found it kind of hard at first. Great job!

It would be awesome if you could rate my game too!

Submitted

Neat concept! Love the movement through 3d space

Submitted

the music is too loud and i died before i even figured out what or where i was in the 3-d space and what i was supposed to do. i couldnt figure out how to move the snake head in the time that i took to play the game

Submitted

Great game!

The sensitivity of the camera controls was a little bit too high with the mouse, it's much more playable with the gamepad!

I've never played to a 3D snake before, it's a little bit disturbing and it's a good idea to have added controls to tilt the snake too!

Submitted

Nice game. It would be nice to have sensetivity controller because it's pretty hard to conrol the mouse movemnt. Good work. :)

Submitted

I pulled out my gaming controller, which made it slightly less hard to control. Maybe sensitivity sliders and a more generous fruit hitbox?
