One of the distinctive features of the this version of snake is that you can run over your own body. =) You need to approach at a reasonable speed and not be approaching an existing intersection point."},{"author_name":"chikun Dev Team","author_uid":"29857","time":"Aug 24, 2015 @ 11:38pm","epoch":1440459180,"text":"I love the innovative idea of using the cylinder as the field of play in the game to create an ouroboros; brings the concept of Snake to a new light. Graphically, there could be some improvement, especially with the snake's head. I didn't note any increased difficulty and the health bar was too substantial to bring about challenge to the game, but nonetheless this works as a good idea in practice. Good job!"},{"author_name":"placatedduck","author_uid":"7688","time":"Aug 24, 2015 @ 11:51pm","epoch":1440459960,"text":"Thanks for playing, chikun! There is a difficulty curve, but maybe it's too shallow for your snake skills. ;)\r\rWe would also like to correct one of our previous comments about approaching at a reasonable speed. The actual condition for crossing over requires that the segment to be cross be angled across Jörmungandr's line of sight."},{"author_name":"disperse","author_uid":"15669","time":"Aug 25, 2015 @ 1:31am","epoch":1440465960,"text":"I got to 46 points and was wrapped a few times around the tower, what does it look like at a ridiculously high score?"},{"author_name":"Realize2D","author_uid":"55753","time":"Aug 25, 2015 @ 1:32am","epoch":1440466020,"text":"Different and fun!"},{"author_name":"placatedduck","author_uid":"7688","time":"Aug 25, 2015 @ 1:37am","epoch":1440466320,"text":"Thanks for playing, disperse and Realize2D!

But the game is pretty hard right off the start, and not in a good way, more of an uncontrollable way, as in things come by too fast to react to easily, and you move too fast to make accurate movements, at least for me. It also got boring pretty quickly. Otherwise i thought the idea was cool!"},{"author_name":"fubenalvo","author_uid":"57918","time":"Aug 25, 2015 @ 3:40pm","epoch":1440516900,"text":"This games made me sick a little bit.

Worked just fine on Chrome though. Haven't seen a snake game quite like this before and the music was superb (have I heard it somewhere before?). Got to 63 on my first run, could've probably gotten further but my interest in the game was already ending at that point. On my second run I just tried to coil over myself as many times as possible and boy did that look interesting, albeit not very usefull :P."},{"author_name":"superpatch","author_uid":"55720","time":"Aug 27, 2015 @ 5:04pm","epoch":1440694740,"text":"I love norse mithology!
