Fun game :smile: For my taste the difficulty scaling could have went up a bit more, like fast spawning of the snails or more than 1 rocket at the same time. Love the soundtrack!

Overall nice entry!

The game is really fun (the idea of the dialogues is great), and the rocket snail is a banger. Graphically, it's consistent and well-polished; it's just the map where I find the colors a bit less harmonious. It's really cool that you included an intro to explain the game.

Got up to 30 snails - fun lil idea, well executed with the rocket snails flying in to change it up every so often

I liked the snails' speech bubbles! :D

Absolutely incredible concept for a game. The first couple speech bubbles I encounter were upside down, that was a bit confusing for a moment, but really fun and really funny game!

Hahah what a fun concept! Great touch, of adding the rocket snail that charges the player! Well done here :)

Cool soundtrack around a creative idea! I would have loved some extra gimmick, like maybe a push away item or maybe a score based on how much snail slime one can collect to make the game a bit more engaging :)

Fun concept, but for it felt like some think is missing to keep me doing stuff. It felt like moving to one location, then wait for snails to arrive and so on. I think adding more mini games / timed events like the rocket snail would be really cool. Graphics and Audio were really cool!

Absolutely filled with game feel, the screenshake and sound when a rocket snail was arriving was well done, and the rocket snails itself changed the game from just moving from corner to corner to a much more engaging experience. There were a few snags art wise, for example I had to fullscreen on the web player to see the whole screen, and the speech bubbles were often upside down. All in all a good game! Well done!

"The Immortal Snails is a fast-paced and thrilling game where players must dodge killer snails that become more relentless as the game progresses! The challenge ramps up as more and more snails appear, forcing you to stay sharp and constantly on the move. It's an addictive mix of tension and excitement that keeps you on your toes from start to finish. A simple concept, but incredibly fun!"

Nice dialog at the start and the graphics were quite good. Also liked the music. Some of the navigation was a bit hard to use because I had to set it to full screen so every time I needed to escape I had to do it twice then full screen again.

62 snails! Fun entry, solid work.

Nice concept! To get the game more spicy you could do a post-jam version with small tasks to accomplish while the snails are inevitably coming to kill you.

I was shocked when the snail rocket came to me :D. Overall it was fun. But it wasn't fair that the collisions didn't work for snails as well! :P. Cheaters. Nice music and SFX. And the spinning head was fun :D![2024-10-18 09_57_42-Arc.png](///raw/31b/d5/z/68f23.png)

I've never been so terrified of snails before! Haha! Honestly, it's a very solid game! The music is wonderful, the sound effects and the pacing of the action are spot on! I might make the graphics a bit more consistent though, as I noticed some parts have larger pixels while others have smaller ones. But other than that, my compliments! The little detail of a snail slowly approaching and trying to attack is fantastic. Seriously, I would just tweak the graphics a bit, but overall, it's a lot of fun! Kudos! Great game!

Simple but quite effective. Great concept and scope for such a jam. Keep up the great work! SFX and music are nice!

Really cute and well done, got up to 29 snails.

Fun idea, it would be nice if the pacing picked up quicker or there was alternate snails. Also the game was cut off when not in full screen on itch for me.

Nice music/audio! I stopped at 51 snails. It was a bit too easy/repetitive to group up the snails and keep dodging them forever.

This is a really dumb, fun idea in all the best ways. Good stuff!

Basic but effective! Rocket slug to keep you honest. Wish there were some placed powerups to keep things a bit diverse~
