I made the music myself, it's something I want to get better at and making music for my games is fun. I've made music for all my games except ¿Quién es el Mechaburro? (I'm updating that game soon and including my own music), but I don't have a soundcloud, never thought of making one 🤔, I'm glad you liked it though!
I can't remember exactly how I found the game, but I think it was because I was looking at Bevy and trying some examples - maybe I did a search in GitHub for Bevy?
I like Not Snake, I think it has potential.. but, I suspect it's high up on the list of Bevy-tagged games because it was among the first Bevy-tagged games. Bevy is the best, you should check out other games too!!
this was really fun! i really liked the narration and the gameplay. i got frustrated at the last level because the snake kept eating the orbs and then i had to restart lol
I'm so happy to have found this! Great game, it was entertaining all the way to the finale.
It may be a coincidence, but it seems to me that there is a bug with the pathfinding algorithm - on the last level I intuitively closed the passageway for the snake with a moveable cube. and the moment i did this fps dropped to almost zero and graphical artifacts began, fixed it by picking cube back up, so it's not a big deal.
It's so addictive by itself to watch a snake seeking the way to food in 3D, I started the game again and stood in the corner just to see it. Was totally surprised that when snake finally locks himself in, it blinks and disappears, just like in the original game. This doesn't seem to have been fully tested, as there are invisible colliders left of the snake and i wasn't been able to finish that level afterwards, but it was a lot of fun.
first, thank you for playing! Glad you enjoyed it :)
there is a bug with the pathfinding algorithm
hah, there's actually a couple bugs with the path finding 😅 I wanted to really timebox my work on this game since it was my first "big" game and kinda learn from the experience, so there were a few items that I had to make the tough choice on whether to address or not.
The one related to the snake death behaves differently depending on the level because depending on the level, the snake has different targets. When it's chasing the player and dies, it will sometimes get choppy as it tries to find a path that works and gets stuck in a loop. If you wait, it should break out of it and play the death animation.
The other problem that you noticed is sometimes when a snake dies it doesn't update the level's layout correctly and you end up with essentially invisible snake parts all over the place. This one is a little trickier because it's somewhat related to the way the systems order their execution, somewhat related to the position of the snake when it dies and also just bad timing.
on the last level I intuitively closed the passageway for the snake with a moveable cube
Yes! This is a sorta subtle strategy; I've watched several players play and not realize those blocks are movable. I was hoping it would be something like that where some players it clicks as a shortcut like an "a-ha!" moment. It's unfortunate that it can kill the snake and cause that choppiness to briefly appear though.
I'm hoping to re-visit this game in the coming months to add some more features, fix more bugs and add more levels as a version 2.0. Check out my other game,A Day at the Movies if you haven't; it was made as part of a game jam so it's not quite as polished but players have found it enjoyable as well.
Again, thanks for playing and for sharing your thoughts, it's greatly appreciated!
The gameplay is very solid. I loved the narrator voice and its meta-commentary. Great comedy in both aspects. The audio was a little bit choppy in the web version though. Apart from that, keep up the amazing work!
I am very satisfied with the quality of this product. The mice are a convenient size and they are fresh. The bag is hermetically sealed. The mice will keep a long time if kept hard frozen.

Very cool
good game
This was fun and funny! Well done. Hope to see more.
Thanks for playing and glad you enjoyed it! I have a couple other games like USA Football League Scouting Combine XLV and Adore's Antiques which are similar levels of fun and funny.
This is great! Simple but very novel concept. Clever level design. Graphics very clear, just what it needs. And cute, yes.
I love the music as well - who made it? Have you got a link to their soundcloud or something?
Thank you so much, that really made my day!
I made the music myself, it's something I want to get better at and making music for my games is fun. I've made music for all my games except ¿Quién es el Mechaburro?

Can I ask how you found my game?
Amazing! Yes I love the music, very cool.

Nice game! You should upload your music! I enjoyed the theme from the level right after you mentioned the 50camera mistakes GDC talk.
Btw your game is #3 with the bevy tag, I was redirected over from their website.
Thank you for playing! I decided to make a soundcloud just to throw stuff up there, but it turns out I made one a long time ago haha

it's not the username I'd choose now but eh 🤷

I think the track you were talking about was this one? https://soundcloud.com/user0153/organ

I'm hoping in future games I can fix audio issues; it works well in the downloads and isn't too bad for me in Chrome.

thank you for your kind words and advice
I wouldn’t be surprised to see Adam Millard make a video about this game and why it is awesome and important… That was fun
Pretty cool game!
Thank you! Hope to officially release it soon with all the content done
