Light Snake

Author Comments

Light Snake is a remake of the classic snake game, but this version is set in the dark. The snake has a light and so does food. You can't see much of the play field, so you'll have to remember where the walls are.

Controls: arrow keys or wasd

I was just about to write this game off as "just another snake clone" until level 1 ended and I realized...I'm playing a level based snake game! I think the main gimmick that Wiering was going for was the light gimmick, though the one that stuck with me were the levels. It seems simple enough, because all games have levels right? We typically don't see that in snake which instantly makes this stick out amongst a sea of other snake games. Normally the main point of challenge comes from avoiding your own ever increasing body, but the variety of stage designs make this a memorable game to play.

I think if more snake games took this route we could have possibly seen a different evolution of the genre than the current timeline we're in where it seems that Snake has all but died off in favor of more developed game design. Aside from Slither.io of course that shit still smacks.

Electric

Controls could use some added smoothness maybe a re design on the controls Well here we are with a snake game I have to admit that you don't see much of these anymore come through the portal but I did find this one to be interesting and you even added your own twist of things here some nice addition of details and good visual made for a fun snake game even as repitive as it can be but I was pretty impressed with this game and the end results so nice game overall

CONTROLLS SUCK. One pushes left for example and it stil goes straight

Very simple and a great game. (Much better than the laggy ones) You should make a update instead of just the head lighting up how about make the body light up too. (just an idea)

Great

Animation is great, graphics, music, the general feel, difficulty, everything is great, but the controls could have been more responsive.
