People usually are lacking co-player. \r\r4 key controls was another dislike. In classic snake you use two buttons and it should stay like this. The rest of the game is average. I feel that character are moving a little too fast. There is a lot of place for improvements so that to make game more wow.\r\rI have very limited internet transfer so I was amazed to see that such game has 100mb. It's a lot for game like this. As I looked through the files I've seen you kept your sprites at full size scalling them to 0.15 in game. This is bad practice. Scale the sprites - this decreases file size."},{"author_name":"jcmonkey","author_uid":"57798","time":"Apr 19, 2016 @ 10:28pm","epoch":1461104580,"text":"the game would not load for me. :("},{"author_name":"ketura","author_uid":"16065","time":"Apr 19, 2016 @ 10:33pm","epoch":1461104880,"text":"This runs into issues when both players are jamming keys with input being lost. Also apples can spawn on rocks, that's no good.\r\rCompetitive snake is a good idea though. Good execution otherwise, I think.\r\rOh, the sides of the screen taking health feels a bit unfair. Maybe wrapping would have been better?"},{"author_name":"goffmog","author_uid":"2011","time":"Apr 19, 2016 @ 10:33pm","epoch":1461104880,"text":"The graphics are good and the soundtrack is well produced, well done for putting a game together in such a short space of time. I felt that perhaps this game shows a little bit of why the original snake worked well on a grid system. Also I would have enjoyed a single player mode - maybe with an AI player? Snake AI has got to be a fun thing to do and maybe that should be the first addition to a post-compo version? I enjoyed seeing this."},{"author_name":"TEAM-TIGER","author_uid":"53141","time":"Apr 19, 2016 @ 10:40pm","epoch":1461105300,"text":"Really good looking with proper polish, but it's odd to not have a single player variation. As mentioned in other comments winning can be had just by dying at the right time and it doesn't really fit the theme well.
