Really creative idea for a snake game! I absoulutley love it!

Very cool, I was looking for “snake” games on itch and really like this one: it increases difficulty tremendously just by adding ghosts.

There is still the problem of the original snake: should I play safe and do regular moves like zigzag or spiralling, but be slower, or go fast? Since there is no timer or other incentive to go fast, the optimal way is to go slow, but it decreases the tension. So I’d encourage the player to try both styles and compare.

The more regularly you turn at regular timings and positions, the easiest it is to predit your ghosts’ movement without having to remember a very long history of moves. So it may be worth waiting a little before doing a quick turn to grab food sometimes, to make things easier in the future.

At one point I tried a slow process of moving in big rectangles, always counter-clockwise. I was quite slow but safe, until I misestimated one of the ghosts’ movements. I got 20, but with the time it took me, I’m not sure if it was worth it. Interesting to see road/rail-like patterns emerge though.

I sometimes had the same feeling as in mobile game “Does not Commute”, where you try to turn as regularly as possible to avoid collision with your future ghosts. It’s much more chaotic and plays on actual roads with different vehicles each time, but a lot of fun!

I can't get the game to focus.  Stuck on the title screen where it says press Enter, but pressing Enter doesn't work.  Very nice music though

EDIT: nvm it just started working somehow.  Got 17, love the elegant design and fun gameplay!

This is like an advanced version of the Original snake it brings a new element of challenge to the game it's like the original snake is checkers and this is chess.

This is a really cool concept! Simple, but fun. It's also still challenging enough to keep wanting a retry.
