This exceeded my expectations! Very well designed in terms of the mechanics, as killing a weaker enemy made you just as weak... And you surrounded the final boss with all the small enemies, too!

Graphics were definitely above average. Audio pretty good too. Really innovative idea that fits the theme PERFECTLY. Pretty well executed as well. Like I said the difficulty needs some tweaking.

Mostly because you could make almost no mistake, had to get close without knowing how close and had to successfully get several hits in a row. I managed to become a snake though after trying a couple of times. It would have been nice to know the range of the attack too. I didn't try it with a controller (if that works), but that might make it much easier. Nice game though. Liked how the sizes of the hearts told you about their level."},{"author_name":"emmelineprufrock","author_uid":"22454","time":"May 2, 2016 @ 2:07am","epoch":1462154520,"text":"I like a lot of the subtle details."},{"author_name":"Geckoo1337","author_uid":"35835","time":"May 2, 2016 @ 2:10am","epoch":1462154700,"text":"I was with you on Twitch when they tested your game and mine (BrainRequired) - an epic moment.
