Tentacle monster vs rockets by el-pepi

[raw]
made by el-pepi for LD33 (COMPO)
Rockets are aproaching the island! Eat them before they hit the buildings!

Controls:
Move the mouse to rotate, press space to go faster.
If you are playing a web version and the mouse doesn't lock, click the game again (there should be a popup in your browser asking for permision).


Warning! WebGl might take awhile to load, even if the bar is full.

--------------------------

Wellp... that was my second LD (My first one was LD 31).
I didn't quite make it this time, but at least I got something playable and somewhat interesting.
I lost too much time making things I didn't even use, I had to cut a lot of stuff out and changed the game like three times.
I got those sweet last minute mouth sounds tho!

Oh well, I hope you like it! :D

The controls are so fun. I really like the permanence of the worm and the little touch like the missile being swallowed. It really makes this little game interesting.

Great job.

Was a bit confused on the controls at first, but 3D snake was pretty cool

Solid game, 3D snakes, the controls weren't hard, and the game play was the right amount of difficult!

I thought the idea was super creative, but the mouse controls were a little janky for me. Give me keyboard controls and you have an awesome game!

The mouse isn't captured by the game window (Windows, WebGL) so I can't turn around making the game unplayable. :( Please fix and I'll try again!

I found this quite tricky to play, but really liked it. Simple idea and fun. I really liked the graphics too.

Very fun game! Took me a bit to get the feel, but once you do you're eating rockets for days

I loved all the saturated colors. Watching your neck extend everywhere and curl in on yourself was really fun to watch. I kind of enjoyed just winding around making a rollercoaster-like neck and twirling more than eating the rockets. Really cool concept. Great job!

Really fun and addicting game! Nice job. (Would also make a really cool rollercoaster type game if done differently)

Really cool! The space bar function was intuitive, didn't read the controls before I started and there was actually a speed ability there. Awesome!

Control was on the wonky side with the WebGL version: it was really easy to over-shoot. The lack of depth perception makes it hard to approach the rockets properly. I do like the space to speed up, though. Gets very easy to get tangled in the game, and it's pretty funny when that happens.

Good revisiting of snake if i can say that, that is what I actually felt while playing it.
It is a bit slow but i found it fun to play :)

Well done!
