I just released an update for the game. As always, you can download the demo here (love file here) and buy the full version on Desura.

Amazing work! Didn't think I could see something new on an already very known game. Loved the puzzle elements on it. And as the snake isn't so easy to maneuver as i've thought, it's more challenging than i could have imagined!
Very soon I'll be buying this one, you deserve the support. Congrats!
Very nice game but two things annoy me. I like to play a game with a pad, but for snayke only the menu is supported, not the main battle. Moreover, by looking at the code, the shaders you are using are very easy to reproduce for the CPU. Since my graphic card does not support shaders (intel chipset) I would really love to see a lightweight port of these shaders.

You can rebind the in-game (rather than in-menu) controls in the Player Setup menu.

Bloom is not accurately reproducible on the CPU. The background shader has a few components: the "color ripple" aspect is not accurately reproducible without a shader, but the vignette is - and in fact the game falls back to an image-based vignette if shaders are off. Using the image-based vignette with the shader-based background color ripple causes heavy banding. The tile pattern part of the background shader has a shaderless fallback as well, which doesn't look quite as good due to differences in blending methods.
