Thank you so much for playing!
We’re having a little issue with the leaderboard: you need to be in the top 10 to unlock the next fruits, but that wasn't the original plan.
This game is fun and the it's a good idea.
I found the camera way too sensitive, and when you grow, it becomes hard to see what's happening on the screen because the snake takes up so much space. It would have been great to see an evolution in the snake's shape itself, not just its size. Great job overall !
Thank you for your nice comment.
There is in fact between 14k and 3k spheres on each fruits and yes they are rendered independently, it's quite simple : they switch from one material to another when a cell touch them. There is no normal map, the normal of each sphere has been modified to take the normals of the whole fruit (ti's why you see like it's just one object with the shadow). It take us a little bit of time to figure out how to handle all this elements individually. It's a brute force method :) Hope I answer your question.
