Snack Scoffer
A downloadable game for macOS and Linux
Snacks and spikes are falling from the sky!
How to Play
You, Aspen, must run around dodging the falling spike balls and scoffing the delectable foodstuffs.
- Eat 5 snacks to clear a round. Try to grab 5 of the same grub in a row for a perfect bonus!
- Keep an eye out for the rare heart and star power-ups. Snag a star to gain temporary invincibility for the round or capture a heart for an extra life!
- Get hurt by the spike balls and you lose a life. Get hit enough times though, and your game is over!

Snack Scoffer was created solely by Niall Chandler in the Pico-8 game engine. I had a lot of fun making the game, learning many things about game development and programming in the process.
If you have any feedback about the game, then by all means give it. I'd love to hear it, and I'd love to thank you so much for playing my game.

Pretty cool! Really nice look and easy to grasp gameplay. Only complaint is that it doesn't seem like it escalates at all - round 10 seemed just as hard as round 1, which isn't interesting.
Can I buy the game or access it through pico-8
You can play the game here in your browser and, if you like it, buy a standalone executable so you can play the game whenever you want.
