[WIP] Mobile/Web revamp of classic Snake

Hey everyone! For the past 5 months I’ve been teaching myself game development, and a friend and I have just started our first project.

I will be updating this thread as we progress.

--------This game is a fresh take on the classic game snake :smile: ---------
The theme of the game is space related (hence the cheesy skybox)

The game is very bare bones as of now, I have not started the art side of things (So be prepared to see a lot of cubes!)
And I’m aware of some bugs with scoring and such.

I’m mainly posting this to get as much feedback as possible. How does it feel to you? (Movement Wise), Camera, mechanics, etc. Any problems? What would you want to see added?

Also, part of the scoring system is based on the number of moves the player takes to get to the “food” object (Less moves = more points)

Any suggestions are welcome!

Looks great!

Yeah very cool. 3D snake!

Is it still in prototype phase?

Two things I would like to add.

  1. The key presses seem a bit sluggish. He turns too late or I have to press the key again to turn.
  2. The zooming in looks cool, but is a bit distracting right as you play the stage. Maybe zoom in on the count down and begin after zoom? Or if you want to really emphasize the 3D factor you could zoom from a different angle?

Thanks for the feedback! We are very much in the prototype stage, and this is are first build with plans of multiple iterations in the future. I’m definitely aware of the key press movement, and I’m glad someone else had the same feeling. It’s something i will have to look into and revamp.

Just wanted to do a small update (been moving really slow on this project),

feedback is greatly appreciated !

PS: I know the input when going through the teleporter is a little busted and the retry button doesnt reset multiplier.
Everything is still placeholder art
