The Serpent of Scorhill

My entry for Ludum Dare 47. An ambitious twist on a classic game, Snake.

I wrote all this flowery flavour text about how you control a spiritual being who is attracting the rune stones from within the Earth towards themselves and they can form spiritual bonds by looping the stones around, but honestly it’s all just a little overblown.

I’m pleased with the work I did on this, particularly the visuals, but I managed my time poorly and there are one or two things I never got to finish.
