  • It offers a simple and straightforward gameplay loop that can be satisfying for fans of idle and incremental games.
  • The game runs smoothly with no lag, and the different snake skins add a fun visual variety.

    The gameplay of the game is visually appealing and features a relaxing synthwave soundtrack, but it suffers from a lack of depth and engaging mechanics. While it offers a unique blend of active and idle gameplay, many players find the mechanics uninspired, with limited upgrades and a quick sense of completion, making it feel more like a chore than an engaging experience. Overall, it may appeal to fans of idle games with aesthetic value, but it lacks substantial gameplay elements and decision-making.

    • “That being said, auto snakes in outer space had more participation involved than expected, which was a nice surprise and I spent much of my total playtime actively partaking in its somewhat hands-off yet still engaging gameplay.”
    • “It's unique in that it has lots of features to incentivize active gameplay while also still being an idle game at its core.”
    • “Snakes looks nice, the synthwave soundtrack fits the gameplay perfectly and it's very relaxing.”
    • “But the game is very, very far from a good idle game in too many aspects - boring upgrades, boring prestige, active gameplay is punished by poor design, excessive active skill cooldown, gameplay being a chore, and so on.”
    • “Lovely idea, but the game itself doesn't contain a lot of gameplay; assume that you will see everything there is to it in about an hour or so.”
    • “No real prestige mechanics, and the game is kind of just beaten in 20 minutes.”
  • music
    10 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The music in the game has received widespread praise for its chill, lo-fi synthwave soundtrack that perfectly complements the gameplay and enhances the overall atmosphere. Reviewers appreciate the nostalgic vibe and relaxing quality of the music, noting that it adds to the game's appeal without requiring micromanagement. Overall, the soundtrack is considered a standout feature, contributing significantly to the game's enjoyment.

    • “Honestly, this game takes me back to some of the early 00s time sinks, has a cool chill soundtrack, and just has that genuine cyber style that scratches an itch.”
    • “Snakes looks nice, the synthwave soundtrack fits the gameplay perfectly and it's very relaxing.”
    • “It demonstrates the heart of what an idle game is supposed to be and also features an excellent original solo lo-fi synthwave soundtrack that fits the ambience of what the game is promoted to be.”
    • “But there's no achievement for playing a certain song either.”
  • graphics
    5 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The graphics are praised for their appealing aesthetic and cool design, particularly the snakes, complemented by enjoyable sound and music. However, while the visuals are engaging, they are often overshadowed by a lack of meaningful mechanics and upgrades, which detracts from the overall experience. Fans of visually appealing idle games may still find enjoyment despite these shortcomings.

    • “The snakes look cool, the graphics are nice, the whole concept is really cool.”
    • “Visuals are great, sound and music are great.”
    • “It's a cute game with a fun visual aesthetic and sound.”
    • “The upgrades don't feel meaningful; the game visuals that look neat and exciting are clearly much later in the game, and there are abilities, but they don't feel meaningful or impactful.”
    • “If you are a fan of idlers, especially those with aesthetic versus mechanical depth, this is the one for you.”
  • optimization
    1 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    Players note that the game's optimization requires careful attention to upgrades, often leading to moments where they must prioritize game mechanics over other activities, such as caring for their child.

    • “This will have you leaving your child in the bouncer for just a little bit longer to ensure your upgrades are optimized.”
