The goal of the game is to keep your snakes contained, you gain snakes over time and the more you have the faster the glass will break. To counteract this you need to upgrade and repair the glass before it breaks, be careful though as you only have a limited number of repairs and upgrades. Upgraded glass will break slower. Use the arrows on the sides of the console to turn the camera. Don't let any of the glass break or it's game over. Can you last long enough?

You get an extra repair every 5 seconds and an extra upgrade every 15 seconds.

Best resolution to play at is 1920x1080p
For the WebGL one just download it run the index.html and use the option to go full screen. From what I've tested the full screen WebGL works the best.

Chrome can't run WebGL from a file:// URL, but it worked in FireFox fine.

Good:
- The idea idea is simple and fun.
- The sound and graphics is overall good.

What could have been better:
- It is a bit difficult to see when the window is about to break.

Nice, simple, to the point. Would have been nice to know what the upgrades did, they didn't seem to help me much in the end.

Art and sound were nice also.

the idea is nice but it lacks a bit of rhythm. good job

Cool idea!! I think it lacks a bit of feedback on broken glass, I know there is some but don't understand a lot how it works or if it works properly :seat_smile: Something I don't understand is why you don't host the game somewhere like itch io to play it on the browser with no need of download it??

Fun little game, but hard to tell when the glass was about to break

Fun game, managed to win on my first try. The game seems rather simple, just move around the enclosure, clicking repair when you see a crack on the glass, and upgrade when there are a lot of snakes in one area. Seemed easy to maintain and was lacking in variety, but I like the idea.

Having different types of snakes that do more damage, or have different types of upgrades would make the game more challenging and require a bit more strategy to win it.

Overall it's a decent entry!

The cobra model is really cool. Unfortunately it's hard to see which window will break soon, it wasn't much fun for me to constantly rotate :( Good job and congrats on finishing!

I like the idea, but the game was just completely broken as I couldn't see the window cracks unless I was full screen and even then it would game over even though I had a full repaired window.

I like the game :) Very fun idea and cool gameplay. Loved the graphics. Only thing I would improve is to make it more clear how much damage the glass can take and the upgrade levels of windows
