I liked being able to switch between menus while in a menu, not having to press the "x". Maybe add that sidebar on top of the left side of the individual menus?
When you know all the letters in a word but one when there are like 7 of them still covered up and your hints uncover every single one of the ones you know and only afterwards the one you don't know....
In addition to my previous comment, I guess that that's intentional for some levels, but at least resetting or "getting spiked" should put them all back.
Micromanagement bug: When you reset when there is still the red bar going down (i haven't tested it when it's full just when it's partially full) then the bar stays and locks up that manager. Not a big deal as the red bar goes down fast, but it is "wrong".
When you press the key buttons 1-4, it makes it go to a new website. Also there are quite a few "hard" situations where you can't really do much to survive, there also isn't a description on the weapons/backpack/jumpy thing.
I liked it, a few things though. WASD controls for some people, maybe a start/end screen like you scored ### points click/space to play again, and at the start something like "Snake push to start".
Also, making each bit that you pick up give more to your length would help, I made it to around 140 and got somewhat bored (I'm also pressed for time), there wasn't really a challenge, but if my snake grew more with each one, then maybe by 100 it would be a tough challenge.
I like how you can't go through the walls, I don't see that too often in Snake games.
Another thing I like is how you aren't confined to "boxes" and you can turn and not be directly head on with one of the things in order to pick it up.
I'd suggest just a small graphical improvement for the snake, like maybe a slightly darker color for the head or something, just some variety.
Overall, nice game. 3/5
Alright, but a few things. First, the instructions "wasd", what, you don't use them once in this game. Secondly, can you speed up the animation of the cup moving up and down, or at least allow an option for it, I find that I am waiting for it quite a bit.
Finally, a suggestion, maybe make the three cups "clickable" (like it makes the mouse pointer have the finger pointing, so we know when we are allowed to click (so if the cups are moving and you mouse over one it keeps the pointer the same shape as it normally is).
This game is fine, it's lacking a few things, and I don't feel like playing again too much after I lose once, so I'd suggest trying to add something, I'm not sure what though. 3/5
The game could use a little more "beefing up". It's not very straight forward as to what you are supposed to do. I'd like to know what I am going to get from my research, or at least a pop-up saying what I just unlocked. It's a good start, but if it wants to go anywhere, it needs more. Also, on the top and bottom of the game there is over an inch of "black space", I don't know if anyone else gets this, but it is pretty annoying. 3/5 right now.
added text for upcoming research. I can't figure out why or how the black space is there, it annoys me too. should be a V1.0 on bottom of screen if you are getting the newest version.
For bonus levels, I said "no, I won't tell" just to see what would happen, and it called me honest. :( I was going to tell people, but I guess I can't now. Dang it!
This is the game Herostick, the only difference I see are a few things missing on the front page and the credits have more of the developer of the game then in the original. The "play more games" link also leads somewhere else.

I don't know how copyright works because the original developer that posted the game here is mentioned three times in the credits, but this game is stolen, given the same name, not improved upon at all. nowhere does it say that he was re-uploading or anything. He's trying to pass of another's work as his own. Don't expect updates, don't play this, if you are going to play at least play the original.
