Great job submitting a game! I like your twist on snake and its awesome to see that you implemented an entire upgrade system. I wrote a whole paragraph about how the movement felt really sticky and how frustrating it was but I went back to check something else and I realized you hold to move whoops. I wish that was a little more clear, would've save my fingers from spamming the WASD keys haha.

After I figured out the movement I enjoyed my time playing! It was fun to use all my abilities. Diagonal movement being faster seemed a little strong but provides a feeling of mastery over the game. I also boxed myself in the corner for extended periods of time. It was fun to discover and use all those little strategies. Thanks for participating!

Fun concept! I included it in my Nokia 3310 Jam 4 compilation video series, if you’d like to take a look. :)

Overall this is a good game. However, the movement of the snake feels unnatural. It's hard to image either a real snake or a player playing the snake emphasizing vertical movement over the direction they're already going.

I Love The Game!

Taking An Old Game Like Snake And Putting A Cool Twist On It Is Amazing. The Theme Was Implomented Amazingly With The Upgrade System :D I Love The Title Screen Loading And The Nostalga That Game Give Me!
Overall An Amazing Submission!

Nice game!

a very neat game, getting the upgrades feels very satisfy and bating the snake to kill the other apples rather than you feels like im betraying my people and i love it

This is a very elegant & clever little game! Luring the snake into easier targets is a very good twist. Has the potential to be very addictive, although I was able to put it down when I found the ‘victory’ condition. (I was just trying to surround myself with boxes to see if the snake would leave me alone for a while.)

The ability to move diagonally is a bit too strong (and could serve as the full movement upgrade in itself). I was initially playing without it and once I discovered diagonal movement, it kind of trivialized the difficulty.

I did find the menu a bit confusing at first. I don’t think it was mentioned that the E key was used to confirm. Then I wasn’t sure what I was looking at, and kept hitting play without buying that first movement upgrade, so I kept dying and didn’t really realize why the movement controls weren’t working. I only figured it out after dying 4-5 times.

But yeah, excellent submission! Good sound too.

Thank you for playing the game! And thanks for the feedback! I wasn't sure about the diagonal movement, making it an upgrade would have been smart. Also, I indeed forgot to mention the E/Enter key to buy upgrades, whoops, I've added it to my page now.
