I don't know If I've ever played a "snake like" before and this was fantastic, basically a reimagination of a classic!
I know this is something most people don't think about, but your color choices were maybe the worst possible choices you could pick for color blind people, I really wish the green one was blue or white or black or purple or literally anything else since the colors you chose blend in together for me, but I understand that it's a problem specific to me.
Gameplay vice I would've loved for either the map to be smaller, or for the train to move faster to begin with. Start of the game was a bit too slow for me. If you wanted to expand the idea further, i'd love to see different maps with different obstacle configurations.
Over all it was really fun to play, graphics were very simple which worked very well for a "snake like", and the idea of putting in a small twist to a classic genre that hasn't been revisited is something I may want to try myself in the future! Great job!

Thanks so much for playing and for your feedback! If I expand this after the jam I will make sure to keep accessibility in mind more and will re-think the colours.
Different obstacles/maps is definitely something else I have in mind, and there's probably some balancing to be done there as you noticed - my only concern with a smaller map would be having it be too difficult at top speeds, but that's where playtesting comes in!
