Yet another TINS05 entry - SNAKE

It's quite simple snake game done in about one day (I simply had no idea what to do because of the parody requirement).

  • What went wrong:

- Not having any idea for two days limited time spent on making it.
- Troll modeling (actually weighting) took way too much time.
- It's not 3D. ;)
- Score required to unlock features is probably too high. (but required highscore file is already there)

  • What went right:

+ Big thanks goes to may brother for apple and wall graphics.
+ I think overall game idea is OK.
+ Picking think simple enough to do it on time.
+ Generating mazes seems to be working right.
+ It even is playable (at least for me).

I hope you'll enjoy it. Any comments are welcome. :)

10** requirements:
11- parody - you'll see ;)
12- troll - there are ones, from stage 2 up
13- sine wave - all sound was generated with simple modulated sine waves only
14- hidden features: one you have high score>=100000 (attached state has one)
15 - T+R - change into troll
16 - 1/2 (depending on stage) - jump to next level
17 (note that these features will zero your score)

Three questions:

1. I get a virtual memory low message in XP when exiting the program. Why?

2. What are you supposed to do in this game?

3. Why 4.1.13? ???

It didn't happen for me (XP, too), I'll check it.

Use arrows to move, the snake has to eat all apples but one to advance to the next level.

I had this version installed and haven't updated it for ages. :P

Hey, I have 4.0.3, where did you get that version?

I liked the troll ;D, very well for only 2 days.
I only have to skip the snake and troll? that's all?

Here, but I'm afraid you have to compile any version above 4.0.3 yourself as there is no official binary download for later versions AFAIK.

Well... yes! ;D But on later levels there are more trolls and snakes. ;) Anyway, maybe there aren't many features in this game, but I think it's quite OK for one day of making it. :)

EDIT: As I'm going to make it a bit more interesting (as usual, but time will show what will come out of this), all suggestions on what to add/change are welcome. :)

Simple, but complete, and reasonably playable! And I do like the troll.

And it's the first entry of yours in a while that's actually liked my computer! I approve :)
