This makes me want to try a version where you control two snakes at once.
The steering interface is much harder than the traditional 4-direction version. (Not saying that's good or bad, just saying it.)
- xojoc 7y agoIt shouldn't be too hard... if you want to try, you can find the source here: https://github.com/xojoc/games2d https://github.com/xojoc/games2d Yeah, the 2-direction version is a little different than usual, but I wanted to try something new.
- bargle0 7y agoThe snake game bundled with DOS 5 let you play with two snakes. It was very difficult to play solo. IIRC the intent was two players on the same keyboard.
- JamesSwift 7y agoI wrote a simultaneous control version a long time ago (very naive game implementation, please forgive the code): https://github.com/J-Swift/clj-multi-snake https://github.com/J-Swift/clj-multi-snake Its pretty difficult to play actually. I find the best method is to control one in a circle while capturing with the other.
- Jeff_Brown 7y agoInteresting. Now I"m wondering how to motivate someone to use both of them. Maybe two different kinds of food, specific to each snake?
- JamesSwift 7y agoIt has that feature already : ) 3/4 of the food are for either snake, 1/4 is for a particular snake.
