Cute game, I also loved the combination of snake with hangman. And some limitation on the wrong letters can make it more lively, as right now you can just go through all the letters until the word is formed.
The music is calming, a game that's perfect after work... It's also nice that the words come randomly every round without any menu in between, you just keep playing... Keep it up!
Thank you for your comments!
Hey man - I love snake. And the combination with hangman was pretty interesting.
The gameplay wasn't too difficult - I was able to easily hit every letter without any consequence. It might be worthwhile to add limited failed letters each round - along with a checkpoint mechanic to make sure the game isn't too punishing.
Also - if you're interested in making games, I'd recommend picking up a game engine like Unity or Godot. It takes some time to learn, but there's plenty of tutorials on youtube and it's worth it in the end.
It's really helpful to read that kind of advice, thanks!
