Made in 96 hours for GMTK 2025 game jam. Plays best in fullscreen. Move your mouse to move, click to dash (or press M, and then use A/D to turn and Spade to dash). Eat yellow dudes to grow and score points. Eat your own trail to regain lost length, but if you eat it out of order, the part you skipped disappears. If you lose your whole tail, quickly eat something to avoid losing.

Wow, this is so good and the music is fitting soo well!

thx!

I absolutely adore this. Probably my favourite twist on Snake yet. It just feels so “modern” arcadey. There’s just so many things at play here which interact in really fun ways.

On another note I am kind of unsure how exactly it decides to lay off some of my goo. I understand it when I get hit by something that isn’t my head. But other than that it also seems to happen randomly.

Thanks! Slug loses goo at a timer, so you need to regularly eat yourself or new dudes.

wonderful game!

I CANT PLAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! (when i download the game on the itch app it just gets stuck at 100% on the unity loading screen)

Honestly just straight up amazing. This is what you want to see when you see a revamp of an old school classic. From the color scheme, to the new mechanics, to the new introduced traps, to even the new character you play as everything hits the mark perfect for this one. 

The only thing that I dislike about it is that I can't get on the score board. 

I usually try to give a more in depth review but there isn't much to say. It's short, sweet, and easy to pick up. This is much better experienced then for me to try and break it down.

There is one downside though. I can't get on the scoreboard.

Good Job. Thanks for making this

Thanks! You are still somewhere on the server scoreboard though, even if you can't see in the game :)

yeah i have no clue. tried again in itch.io app and nothing. it stays at 100% loaded and nothing happens. if I launch on any browser it stays at 0% and nothing happens

"blocked by CORS policy" error in the dev site inspector (F12 in browser). strange every browser i try has this issue

tried again in browser and it randomly works...no idea what changed settings are the same... anyway fun game, great job!

Locate the directory where the index.html file is located for the game, create a file called unity_server.py and paste the code in this pastebin https://pastebin.com/Jm06PVRQ and save. open a terminal and point it to that directory and type the following command: python unity_server.py (for this to work you need to have python installed). After this use chrome or a chromium browser and type in the address bar localhost:8000 and your game should work.

haha fun little game. and a nice twist on the normal snake game :) nice work

Really nice little game, and a very enjoyable take on the snake genre. Graphics are impressive, especially the slug animation, and the whole thing is simple but highly playable.

(+3)(-4)

The idea is cool as it inverts the regular snake premise of "DON'T touch the trail", but the game's absurd difficulty ruins its charm

  • Character doesn't turn sharply enough
  • Trail begins dropping far too quickly
  • Trail nuggets should be spaced further apart
  • Dash makes trail drop instantly, making it nearly useless
  • Touching own still-attached tail does not reset trail timer
  • Punished too harshly for touching trail later than the start
  • Hazards are way too common

hey uh my guy doesnt follow my cursor

Can you try clicking inside the game window? Do A/D keys work?

Excellent... 

no work on linux

It should. work fine. What browser are you using and what are the symptoms?

(+1)

I assure it works on EndeavourOS + Firefox, so there is no problem with the game itself.

I have Linux and everything works on my laptop
