I find this game strangely amusing and want to see a multiplayer version some day.

I adore the simplistic graphics. Game fits well with the theme and it's quite fun. Good job.

I am getting a 404 from Dropbox.

Same here, 404 error.
Blinked27 Aug 2013, 04:05
Same, I'll check back on this one later.

tigerj27 Aug 2013, 04:06
Getting a 404 as well. contact me @stalkjimmy on twitter if it starts working. I will check back often.

Huh. Sorry everybody. Not sure what happened. I got the 404 too, checked my dropbox, and it came back up right away at the link.

The game is quite interesting. Never thought of having so many worms on the platform at one time.

Neat! I like how you made Snake multiplayer basically. I won't say that the game fits well with the theme though, it's very vaguely interpreted. But it's a nice game!

I revisited today thanks for updating us on the 404!
I really like the game (it worked in chrome but wouldn't load all the way in safari for me)
I love snake (especially on the nokia phones of yesteryear)
so much fun. great work and nice game. I like the colors too.

This is a pretty cool snake game, the music fits really well. I feel like I'm looking through a microscope and just watching these things poop and grow...I'm pretty sure those red things are poop :P
One odd thing is when I eat one of those red things, my snake will grow into odd shapes. Not sure if it is a bug or feature.

Very good 10-seconds version of the classic Snake game!

Neil27 Aug 2013, 19:53
I enjoyed this a lot! Graphics are nice and simplistic, music is cool, and gameplay is fun!
Katamori27 Aug 2013, 20:48
Addictive and simple! Love the music, too.
KeithE.28 Aug 2013, 19:13
Really fun variant of snake. I would love a local mp version of this!
BeardoGames28 Aug 2013, 22:04
Just... wow! The game was intriguing enough from the screens for me to open it using a different browser that Safari, and I'm glad I did! Beautiful in terms of the minimal graphics, the color, and the overall spareness of the design. All that and it was super enjoyable too!
HauntedSoul28 Aug 2013, 22:54
Very cool graphics and sound! Also neat take on snake, would also be interested on trying this as multiplayer.
Nick Weihs29 Aug 2013, 11:12
Sweet, I haven't played anything like this in years. Pseudo-multiplayer too, pretty awesome.
X-0r1 Sep 2013, 01:24
Oh my... a TRON / Snake crossover? How cool is that? With actual poop! Adds a lot to the realism, and I really mean that, even if I still chuckle from the idea of death through poop^^

Great feel to the game, lots of stuff going on but simple to understand, easy to pick up and play.
My best time was 35 seconds, but I have a feeling I could do better. Great fun!

Nice snake like game. I liked the graphics and found it humorous that the snakes poo out other squares.






Worked fine in Chrome though!
