This game takes me back to my childhood when I used to secretly "borrow" my mother's button phone to play it! Nice concept and game design overall
What a nice memory! Thanks for your feedback.
This a 5 stars Relevance to Theme. A game full of details
Thanks for your feedback!
Nice game, the music and theme interpretation are really good here. Like others have mentioned, moving from square to square could be a smoother experience and was disorienting at times. I died way too many times because I was unaware of the fact that the snake was even moving when I wa sup against the wall.
I also expected myself to die every time I was near a bomb until I realised only the head takes damage from bombs. I wasn't sure if that was intentional, but maybe it would've been better to have the entire body affected by the bombs?
Apart from those, this is a really fun reimagination of a Snake game. Great job on this one.
Thanks for your feedback! I had mentioned in the game page description about it only affecting the head but the whole body is definitely on my update list.
Fun game, and a cool take on snake. My only complaint is that at times I didn't know I was moving, because the snake jumps square to square, so if you're next to a wall, it's a little disorienting, and I wasn't sure if the game had frozen. It's a little different than the original game, but even jumping 1/2 a square at a time instead of a full one would probably fix that, or checkerboarding your ground/walls if you wanted to stay with a square at a time. Still, fun. Cool entry.
Thanks for trying it out! I want to update it after voting finishes to change the camera for one that offers a more fluid view. I think that might resolve the issue and I do know exactly what you mean. The camera was parented when I was running out of time, so it was a quick fix to get it submitted instead of a permanent solution.
Hey BitGamey,
Nice take on the snake genre! I really like the start screen how it looks ominous!
Game itself runs nice and works well. Eating the chomps, avoiding bombs and controlling the snake works well. I would suggest though couple of improvements:
The music is spot on! Very pressing and giving the anxiety. Works well!
Very nice job on the game! Looking forward for some twist and additions to the game!
Cheers!
Thanks for playing and your feedback! Mostly I was trying to respect the original where possible.
The range the bombs generate in shouldn’t include walls so I need to look into that.
I had considered either split screen or a mini map to show the whole area but didn’t have time so went with chilling the camera as a quick fix. The same with the bombs only affecting the head. I had mentioned about the head in the description.
I would like to update it and have additional touches like the bomb bouncing into the play space like a ball before the fuse starts burning down.
When I left the game I found a lot of shader error message on my terminal window:
This might be a Wine issue, though...
So…did you enjoy the game? LOL There are no custom shaders that I created. Everything was included in assets that I used and there was nothing in the Unity console when I ran the game in-engine.
