I compiled a list of quotations from all reviews and player comments so far to speak for our game's quality and show that it's something a bit different. Take a look:

Well, I thought it will be best to do it like this:
1. Start off the review quotes on a strong note with the one comparing Snakes' storytelling depth to Grim Fandango's.
2. Then, to mess things up, quote from the guy who thought Snakes was completely bonkers, but he loved it for some reason nevertheless.
3. Then put some Gnome Lair's praises about the production values, especially the Jazz soundtrack.
4. Finally, to sum it all up in the best possible manner 2 quotes from YOUR review - one about the game having revolutionary gameplay features, the other about it being laugh-out-loud funny and incredibly well designed.

The graphics are very basic but I found it very entertaining, thoughtful & challenging. To me it was a very good example of what you can achieve on a basic game engine with a good idea! And I loved the music! [smiley=thumbsup.gif]

Big thanks for your impressions from the game, loobiloo. I'm happy you had fun playing it.

No way of getting it on the Ipad sadly, but for a while I planned a Mac version. Unfortunately, the software to do it didn't work out for me, and for now I don't have the time to look into it more closely. And I would really like to move on to another game project as soon as possible too.
I wish making all possible translations and ports wasn't so time-consuming.
