How does your game fit the theme?
OUROBOROS is a snake-like with the snake as an enemy. A player must force the snake to eat its own tail 15 times (forming 15 loops) in order to win.

It's reverse snake, and a very fun one at that.
Confused at first because there wasn't a cursor present (could also just be my computer). Got the hang of it later though. Nice game, reminds me of the Google snake game where you eat apples haha. Music and sfx were nice too.
i chose to remove the cursor's visibility because the cursor isn't one of the controls you use, so it's not just your computer :P sorry to accidentally cause confusion! glad you liked it, music&sfx were also by me, so it's always nice to hear audio compliments :-)
I like the look of the lindworm a lot! I wish that it turned a little bit slower as it tracked you so I could squeeze past it
Awasome game bro! Unique and very different concept. I enjoyed it a lot.
thank you! glad you enjoyed it :D
fun take on the Ouroboros idea
Super cute project, I had a lot of fun playing it. As others have said, it could be more difficult. Randomized starting locations and obstacles could be interesting
thank you so much! ^_^ randomized start locations and obstacles is a fantastic idea haha i'm kicking myself for not including it. there's always next time!
I like this game has a lot of potential if some more mechanics are added in. Right now, each round plays exactly the same, and once the player encircles the snake, they have already won. I think that a feature like random terrain + or map design could make the game more interesting since it would be harder to encircle the snake. The visuals and sounds are good.
thank you!! as a solo developer i only felt like i had enough time to polish as-is, but i definitely agree and i think random terrain and map design is a really cool idea... will definitely be stealing that to add in later haha
Very cool spin on the snake type games where you become the eaten xD
Cool concept, and congrats on the first jam submission!
thank you very much! :-)
Nice concept. having the spawn position be randomized would make it a little bit more challenging and fun I think. Now I just moved the same way every time.
ooo that's a really good idea!! i'll definitely be adding that in once i can update the game again haha, thank you!
it was fun and i like the idea. it did feel a little repetative though
thank you for playing! :-)
The first thing my girlfriend said about it was that it was a game similar to Snake. I'm glad I found a twist where you're the one getting eaten.
thank you both!! i'm pretty surprised that not a lot of other people seem to have used that twist but i hope they do, it was super fun to play around with
Pretty cool twist on snake!
thank you! :-)
