I wouldn't say it 'fresh mechanics', but it is a challenging, fun game (it was difficult to get flawless on every level...)

Very nice game! But still -- the snake feels a little too stiff for me. I'd like to be able to curl up into a ball. The movements of the tail pieces are a little unpredictable, i.e. sometimes you drag your body into a monster just because the movement of the head influences the tail pieces a little too much.

You need to change the control scheme, having the snake stuck to the pointer it terrible. Have a look at Anamorphous+. I like the fact that you need to manage the snake's tail, and the game is visually excellent with a great atmosphere. However is it too easy for my taste, it lacks a bit of increased challenge after the first 3 levels...

I thought it was a beautiful game but it lacked a little in the actual gameplay. It was a decent length and making a good snake game is not easy. I give it a 4/5. Keep up the good work.

4/5 really easy to beat, i tried to lose at one point but theres no punishment for losing. short and to the point with fairly good game play. i liked the boss level except how long you were.
heres a helpful tip: to avoid things flying at you. move much farther then where you were trying to go. then move backwards so that you coil in on yourself. it works well to shrink your area, but make sure that small area isn't under fire. its nearly impossible to move your entire self fast enough

Why is VoidParticle's post "Best"?! Your tail does NOT fall off! If it did it would be so much easier to dodge! Green orbs only cure a little and only the first 2 yellow orbs make you grow. I wonder if he even played it. Anyway I think it's a great game. 5/5!

Oh, and for the boss level, THE SCREEN IS TOO DAMN SMALL!
I had to set my desktop resolution to 1366x768 before I could finish it. (Full HD native here)

The idea that it should trace your mouse's path is a good idea, but the moving enemies or things that spawn when you go to trce the path could cause problems

I like it. Fairly original, good challenge curve. Not super difficult, but the last few levels offered a fair challenge. The interface plays well and the artwork is nice. Short but sweet. 4/5

As for the game itself, I must say I like the art style, the gameplay is fairly unchanged (a good thing in my opinion), but the second to last level is ridiculous. Most of the time, I find it literally impossible to survive, given the fact that the center is off-limits due to the shrapnel from exploding mine things while the edges are off-limits due to the regular enemies.

The maker DIDN'T claim to bring revolutionary new gameplay and ideology to this game. The description begins with the words "Stylish arcade game with fresh mechanics." I simply don't understand why everyone seems to expect it to be more than that.

A good solid original game and very nice artwork and great quotes. As for the game itself it is a bit laking in entertainment, everything else however was great. There just simply wasn't anything motivating me to get flawless on the levels or finish hardcore. Game froze up on me at a certain level, still 4/5 however for originality and artwork.

I had this nightmare the other day that all these kids who grew up only playing all those damned FPS games like Halo suddenly became game developers and started putting out games they called revolutionary and unique, but they were just all the old arcade games like asteroids and tetris and snake given better graphics. They had just *gasp* never played any of the original games.
And then I played this game. Perhaps I have the power of prophecy or something. I believe it would behoove playpanic to play some of these older arcade games before going around claiming to introduce fresh mechanics.
2.5 for a much-needed makeover, but the game itself is prone to lagging, and the mouse sensitivity is apparently on a hair-trigger.

Was anyone else under the impression that those green bubbly things were poison until you accidentally ran into them?

Flawless on 13 of the levels, but it locked up completely on level 14... )= I am saddened... but, 5/5, because it was pretty great, before it froze.

I like the game...but it is too easy...I got flawless all the way until level 12 :/
And it is kinda like snake......And I believe the creator was inspired by snake.
