Good simplistic twist on a snake game! I was surprised (pleasantly) by the lack of a grid! Made it feel a bit freer.

Good idea, the snake gets slower and more sluggish the larger you become right? Initially (when you were a fast little leech) I thought that switching colors to green was a cheating somewhat, because you could sort of run up to the little blobs and test your size against them and eventually dodge them in the last second to prevent insta-death. But when you got slower it was pretty much necessary to see where the "safe spaces" were so you could plan your route...

No ability to restart & not particularly long game but fun for a moment or two. Also nice idea with the radius growing rather than the snake's length.
Definitely followed the theme and felt fairly polished.

Really good and relaxing game !
But is it me or I can't restart after the Game Over ?

Relaxing, interesting to see a hybrid of snake and fish genres at once, feels like it really could do with some audio feedback and some ambient sounds. Was a fun jaunt and honestly feels really smooth, definitely one of the better snake games this LD. A cool little project~

136... I really like :D I kinda wish you had the mechanic of the snake length growing though but it was still very good... well done :)

Nice game. Old mechanic with little new feature. Want to some music in web version. However, very good entry! Well done!

Pretty chill and cool. It'd make a good app.

Fun! I thought this was a nice combination of both themes. I think it could definitely use something to fill the white space of the background (at least until the screen is full of blobs!) and some soothing music to go along with it. Great job!

No ability to restart really hurt this game, but I really like the idea and the visuals were minimal but smooth.
