The game (Axon) is a contradiction, its designed so you have to be patient and think about where you’re going or you’ll lose, while at the same time giving a super short time limit so that you have to plow ahead or you’ll lose. I don’t like that, otherwise a decent concept. My idea is that you change the theme to space faring race capturing star systems, remove the time limit (area of reach does not shrink) and make it harder, add enemies instead of just competitors or something. Also add level ups, so you can gain strength over the enemies or speed or wider area of reach. Also add the ability to go backwards and sideways instead of just forward and diagonally forward. Goal could still be ultimate length, but allow enemies to steal your captured pieces if they have a higher strength than the spots defense, in order to reduce your length, and you can do the same to them. Defense of a captured spot could reflect the defense score you had when capturing the spot. You still have the incentive to move fast because otherwise you’ll run out of stars you can reach to conquer or end up surrounded by a more powerful foe. Experience could be gained from captures of course, less from uninhabited planets because they’re easier. You don’t need to add individual space ships or anything, keep it simple with the assumption that all the crafts of your race are outfitted with the best technology at their disposal. It would be more a game of patience and strategy instead of split second decision making. And the power ups could be different kinds of special fuel found on specific planets, fuel runs out after all. Anyway I think it would be more fun. If you’re interested go ahead and take the idea but give me some credit. I’ve done other forms of programming and very basic flash programming before, so anything you can spell out I can assist with if you want. I’m certified in web design and computer graphic design.
