What do you get when you combine the arcade classic Snake with the Bullet Hell Vampire Survivors-Like genre?

“Limited Ssssspace”

Limited Ssssspace plays on the Ludum Dare 54 theme: Limited Space, by constraining the player within the walls of the level, avoiding collapsing red enemies, and dodging their own lengthening tail. Is it a fun game? Honestly, I’m not sure how you evaluate that objectively after pouring so much time into something.

Looking forward to feedback - what did you like? what could be improved?

Instructions:

  • Movement Snake Head WASD/Arrows

Avoid:

  • Red Enemies
  • Hitting the Outer Walls
  • Hitting Yourself

Collect:

  • Green Squares (they add to the Snake, make it faster, and shoot)
  • Yellow Circles (they are EXP, give Snake Head new abilities, level up snake tail segments)

Win Condition

  • Last 10 Minute
  • Screenshot your High Score and post it in the comments!

Bonus Info

  • Enemies increase speed, health, spawn rate every minute
  • EXP Meter at top is for the Snake Head
  • Tail Segments gain EXP, and silently auto-upgrade their attack speed and damage
  • Tail Segments that are closer to the snake, have been around longer, will be strongest
  • Critical Hit chance is around 10% for most shots and does either 1.5x or 2x damage
  • Being right next to the Wall is VERY dangerous, enemies can easily pop in and hit you
  • If you get hit in the tail, you lose all segments behind you.
  • If your Head hits an Enemy, a Wall, or a Tail segment - You Lose!
