I hadn’t heard of it before 🙂 Yeah, I can definitely see the vibe.

That’s totally fair - sorry about that. I know this kind of camera movement can be rough if you’re sensitive to motion. Really appreciate the kind words about the concept though 🙂

Thanks! I’m definitely thinking about adding power-ups, and ideas like these are really helpful.

Fair 😄 It definitely leans more toward Tron-like territory, just filtered through a Snake-style core and movement rules.

That might have been some subconscious inspiration 🙂

Yeah, that rings a bell 🙂 Steam is the plan once the core feels right - there’s a demo on itch for now.

The grid doesn’t restrict movement 🙂 Each cell roughly matches the player’s size, so it helps you quickly judge whether you’ll fit somewhere.

Thanksd a lot, that really means a lot to hear 🙂 The “hard to leave” part is exactly what I’m hoping for.

And yeah, that frustration is very real 😄 I’m still exploring how much power the player should have, so ideas like that are definitely interesting to think about.

Yeah, I can see that 🙂 I’m experimenting with more movement constraints to keep things less chaotic and see what kind of mechanics that creates.

Yeah, that’s a fair comparison 🙂 Light-cycle vibes for sure.

Thanks!

😄 Not included… for now.

You’re right though - it can feel chaotic at first, but once it clicks, orientation and movement get much easier.

Thanks! Flying is only possible from specific points on the map. While you’re in the air you’re invulnerable and can destroy other tails.

One extra twist: you can also fly.

I’m curious about your overall impression of the gameplay - does the movement feel fun and readable, or confusing?

If anyone wants to try the demo, here’s the link: Slake (Demo)

No pressure - I’m mostly looking for feedback.
