Ouroboros - A snake eating its own tail.

Take control of a ravenous experiment, capable of regrowth but also self-sacrifice. Equipped with nothing but your gun and limited ammo, fight back against whoever stands in your way!

Project Ouroboros is a bullet hell with a unique mechanic: You control a snake in which you devour not only pieces of your enemies but also yourself to keep your arsenal stocked and ready for battle. Avoiding bullet patterns becomes a whole lot more challenging when you have so much 'body' to worry about! Fortunately, you are also equipped with the ability to spin, really really fast and pass right through them!

How to Play:

Avoid bullets and attacks. Shooting at the boss drops meat which you can eat to grow. When you run out of ammo, eat a body segment to reload!

Move mouse cursor to move the snake

Shift - Sprint

Space - Dodge coil

Left click (hold) - Shoot gun

Right click (hold) - Open mouth. Approaching an eatable item will highlight it, at which point letting go will eat it.

This game was developed solo over the period of 30 days for the Boss Rush Jam 2025.
