Snake Descent 🐍

Classic Snake, but as a turn-based rogue-like with a twist!
You crawl as a Snake through procedurally generated mazes with enemies and upgades that you can collect as long as you have free slots on your body - each upgrade is assigned to one, so if your body gets bitten off - you lose it!
But don't worry - bitten off body parts are your Descent! ⚰️
You will respawn as long as there are descendants on the board. If not - then perma-death! ☠️
