Snake Byte
View File
This is a remake of a game called Snake Byte by Sirius Software Inc. published
in 1982 for, according to Moby Games, the Commodore 64, Vic-20, Apple II &
Atari 8-bit. This remake has minimal audio (added by Frank Bass as a proof of
concept on Oct 25, 2019).
This version is written in "C" using cc65, originally for the Commodore 64 in
2011, and the Commander X16 port was done in 2019.
From Wikipedia: The player controls a snake, crawling into a rectangular area.
The aim is to eat 10 apples per level. If an apple is not eaten during the
given deadline, three extra apples are to be eaten. The snake becomes longer
with each apple eaten. The snake loses a life when crashing a wall or its
tail. Higher levels have more fences, making the game more difficult. An
optional difficulty are the "plums" (one or two pieces), which kill the snake
when hitting its head.
