coolness: 0.17
A snake game where you travel across dimensions. May require rewiring your brain.

(Themes: Two button controls, growing) (Controls: Q & C)

How to play:

Use the head of the snake to eat apples and enemies.

At any time bite your tail to start again from the next level.

Score persist between levels.

Difficulty of the game is relative to the amount of food you have eaten.

When leaving a level you become hungrier.

The hungrier you are the faster the game will become.

Overeating may also be punishable.

Besides the delicious apples there are wandering enemies that will attack you if they get close.

Your tail will lose it's color if you are hurt.

Apples heal your tail.

If you get hurt enough, you will die.

Also: walls kill you.

Controls:

Q - Turn up or left

C - Turn down and right

Turns depend on the orientation of your snake.

If you prefer the right side of the keyboard there are mirrored controls:

Numpad 9 - Turn up and right

Numpad 1 - Turn down and left

Tips:

Maintain the food counter and figure out what is your preferred speed.

There are no score bonuses or penalties when playing on faster speeds.

If enemies overwhelm you, escape to the next level.

However, escaping too often will make it harder to maintain your speed.
