Simple but a good game, gets pretty difficult after a while with balancing having enough food but not eating too much. graphics could always be a bit better but it worked well for what it was

The randomization is a bit wonky, as I've died from hunger from no food spawning. Also, the gaps in the vines do nothing...?

@justinooncx There should be no gaps, It's just my lousy programming :D

Ha-ha, what a twist! I *really* like the way you've used the same mechanic to both work as an collect/avoid-type gameplay, while having the watch the size of the spider. It gets really fast later in the game. I exploded after scoring 310 points :)
It would be really nice with some sound-effects.

Nice job! It didn't seem like the gaps in the ropes made me lose (could just be me). But it was an interesting take on the theme!

Simple but a fun auto runner, I like the idea that eating too much can kill you as well as running into spikes, means you have to be careful of how much you collect. Good game! :)
