Non-stop arcade maze chase experience!

Connect all plugs in the maze to win!
And wow! Would you look at those nice graphics!!! Buy now for only $39.99, available at your local Toys 'Я' Us!
...all the corn aside, we wanted to do a down to earth, minimalistic yet solid experience.
This is essentially a non-pacman "Maze Chase" game, with a different objective from "visit every square of the maze", akin to what could be found on arcade or 80s home computers.
CONTROLS:
Arrow keys / D-Pad: Move
Any key other than that: confirm in menus
Also, this was made during Omsky Ludum Dare IRL gathering. Read up here!
Power player tips and tricks:
- Extra lives are granted every 5000 points
- When plugging a socket, bonus points are awarded for how _short_ the cable is
- Every level has 8 bonus items in it, each granting more points, up to 2000 for the Jewel
- With every loop(!) the game speeds up and every score gain increases by 200 a pop!
My own highscore was "338150 +6", try to beat it!

I did struggle to get past Level 2 but that is most likely because of my skill issue, but outside of that I really enjoyed playing this. Amazing job!!
A bit too hard to my liking though. Like previous commenters said, on the 2nd level game introduces all of those different enemies at once, without giving you a room to explore their behaviours in a more controlled manner. Or maybe I just need to git gud.
I enjoyed the game nonetheless, a solid entry!
like many others I got stuck on level 2 and I couldn't complete it,
unfortunately it seems like sometimes enemies either trap you and in between you and it's somewhat unpredictable or for the worm type it sometimes picked paths that were dead ends and I couldn't do anything to dodge it
I would love to play a version of this game that makes the difficulty a little more manageable
For now, I have a few hints:
- Snake enemies dislike doing U-turns and are generally stuck to their moving direction. If they go right, you go left. They also never target you specifically, just a square somewhere near you, so they can even miss you point blank.
- You can bait the spike enemies into attacking and missing you.
- Level 3 features a lot of snake enemies. The left-right rule I mentined before works wonders here, simlply check where they are going and go the other way.
- On level 4 you're going to encounter a pair of enemies that like to box you in. In general, you can visually split the level into 3 parts (left wing, center, right wing) and don't be in the part as they are.
Well done!
Cute take on pacman!
