I think it deserves more recognicion.

I haven't seen this twist of the classic snake before. It's addicting, and while it gives the same addictiveness as the old snake, it still gives a new kind of twist which prevents me from getting bored.

The graphics are neon-ish, and it really fits into a game like this. The character choice is a bit limited though. Maybe you could just give a small 8x8 or 4x4 character editor. It would give an even more complete feeling, and solve the problem of the limited characters.

A bit more variation would be nice too. A hurdle to jump over sometimes, enemies that you had to dodge, a wall you can't go through or something like that would give less of a feeling you're constantly doing the same thing.

After practicing a bit it starts off a bit slow. Maybe you could implement a feature that allows everything to go 2x as fast, for 2x points.

Those features aren't neccesairy though, since the game is already quite hard. Perhaps something for a next game?

Also, sorry for not writing a review before. I kind of forgot :(

Original concept

The good old classic with a new twist. Surely ups the difficulty for those who've mastered the classic game.
Good graphics (not that I actually care about graphics. ;) )
Good tutorial
Good game in general.
If anything, I'd say the snake is a bit poorly controlled. It sometimes fail to respond on change of direction. Might be that I'm just hitting left before it turns upwards from a previous "command", but it's those little things that makes the difference in a game like this.

It's an excellent idea

The one thing that really shitted me was that the snake can go off the edge, but the platforming character can't.

Otherwise, it's an innovative and well-made game.
