Really really fun!! one of the best games I've played today! only problem is how hard it is to move when you get really long--like impossible

I like this a lot, and would love to work with you to make some snake graphics. Email me if you're interested: zach.tsiakalis.brown@gmail.com

Neat idea, the web build still made me download though! Its punishing like traditional snake games and thats a good thing. Would be nice to see more polish!

Interesting take on a classic game. Gets pretty challenging after a while. Great job!

To reach 20+ you should think ahead and save apples somewhere, for exapmle - in one corner. Theoretically, with some luck, you can reach any length. Just keep your length <8 so you can fly fast and dont touch apples from "garden" corner. But that is kinda boring.

P.S. Got 22 from 2 hours of playing.

Interesting take on snake - I didn't really get the mechanics at first, and was confused when I started shrinking/losing points, but it was fun figuring out the "proper" way to play.

I found this game very fun love how it gets long and takes for ever to grab food far away. Highest was 17 but very enjoyable :D. It fit the theme and innovative as well as very funny.

Played the game once. Got to 20 and then got a bit bored since it doesn't change much. Losing a part of your snake takes a long time and there are apples everywhere. Took a while to get game over when having a long snake even when trying to lose on purpose. Would have prefered not taking an apple for a while to be more punishing and some kind of difficulty scaling. The game implementation itself is good, would just have liked to see some of the rules and values tweaked.

-No sound :(
-Not sure if eating apples was always working (even if I clearly touched it with the head) :(
-Had some frustrating fun with this game :)
-In short: Damn you gravity!
