December 13th-16th 2013 :: Theme: You Only Get One
[ Real World Gatherings | Ludum Deals | Warmup Weekend ]
You only get one... body. And since you are a HUNGRY self-eating centipede* your tail wants to eat it! So you need to collect food as fast as you can in order to stay alive.
This is an endless runner - snake type of game in which your body gets smaller and smaller over time and you have to collect power ups to grow it back up for as long as you can.
The game was made in 48 hours by Vaios Kalpias and Vaggelis Gavalakis using PlayCanvas (http://www.playcanvas.com). It works on all browsers that support WebGL.

This is a strange snake. She don't die hitting itself, boxes, walls. To die you need to block the snake in the dead end or let tail eat you ^_^ So strange...
Thank you :) When your body shrinks your speed increases as well so if you have a really small body you go super fast. I don't know if that makes it harder though :D
Lol, pausing rather than dieing when I ran into something made this much easier than the normal snake games!
@DanielVF indeed - if you died when the snake is small and goes really fast it would be really difficult!
I enjoyed playing this fun simple game. Good take on a old classic.
Like the music and sound effects and look... and liked the first minute of the game. Does it get harder? I stopped playing ~300 points because it felt like I could just go on forever.
The camera made me a little motion sick... would like it more if it wasn't so bouncy.
Very nice concept. I find the camera zooming in/out very annoying.
Got me an 680 and corner suicided instead of letting that pesky tail eat my head! Very interesting and nice game :)
Simple but fun. I thought nothing new can be created with old snake idea, I guess I was wrong. Also nice music :)
Thanks for your comments guys, I wish I had more time to make it better :D

IMPORTANT NOTE: If you want to place in the final results, you NEED votes. The easiest way to get votes is by rating other games. Judging lasts for 3 weeks following the end of Ludum Dare. For best effect, rate 20 games as soon as possible. Rating more games is encouraged.
MORE TIPS AND DETAILS AT THE BOTTOM OF THIS PAGE
TEAMS: Teams entering the Jam should pick a single representative to submit your game, or create a team specific account you can share. We currently do not support Team Voting, but sharing an account and together playing and rating games is acceptable.
NOT LOGGED IN?: If you get a message about not being logged in, even though you are, it’s because your web browser cached the non-logged in page. You can fix this by either refreshing your cache or clearing your cache. CTRL+F5 in many browsers. Chrome is a bit more work. Press F12 to enable Developer Mode, then you can right click on the refresh button and select “Empty Cache and Hard Reload”. This option is unavailable if you are not in Developer Mode.
PORTS: Ports to other platforms can be done after the deadline. That said, the sooner you finish your port, the sooner people can play your game, improving your chances of placing in the final results. For best results, provide a Web version of your game, or a Windows version with no dependencies. Also be sure to rate about 20 games to improve your visibility.
MY GAME DOESN’T SHOW UP: If you can’t find your game, it’s usually because the URL to your downloads are missing ‘http://‘. Fix your URLs (http://mysite.com/mygame.zip) and you will show up.
MY GAME CRASHES, IS UNBEATABLE, OR I MADE A TYPO: We allow you to fix crash or win condition bugs after the deadline (in a sense, like “porting” to support more players). We also allow “typo” bugs. I.e. A true that should have been a false, a word that should have been a different word, very tiny changes that you would have caught if you had more sleep. We leave this open to interpretation, but generally speaking your game should be identical to the game you submitted. No new features, just things you messed up last minute. Typos.
Fun game. Would be nice if the challenge somehow improved more over time.
