Ah, nostalgia
O primeiro jogo jogado na LD 60 só poderia ser do meu amigo @wendel-scardua
Ah! Saudades da época em que os jogos eram mais simples. Esse aqui eu joguei muito. O desafio maior, pelo menos para mim, é colocar o dedo rápido no número certo. Confesso que me saí bem melhor com o "Cheat" :D. Eu não consegui jogar com os número do teclado. O que será que eu estou fazendo de errado? Como sempre um ótimo jogo de NES. Esse funciona no Libretro?
Boa sorte e divirta-se meu amigo!
Obs: Esse ano não tem arte de IA no meu. :D Obs: Eu não entendi por que eu morri aqui. O rabo já tinha passado...

> Esse aqui eu joguei muito
E eu também, mas mesmo assim tive que pesquisar um bocado porque tinha vários detalhes que eu não lembrava (e algumas coisas eu tive que adaptar porque não achei informação sobre o original, e os clones inventam muita moda)
> O que será que eu estou fazendo de errado?
Assim, a ideia era mesmo ser um desafio (acabei adicionando o "cheat" pra que o jogo não fosse puramente uma sessão de tortura), mas os botões diagonais deixam um pouco menos difícil, isso era algo que eu usava bastante quando jogava no meu Nokia 2280 😅 (explicando: você só precisa de, por exemplo, 1 e 9. O "1" funciona como "cima" se você estiver andando na horizontal e "esquerda" na vertical, da mesma forma o 9 é tanto "baixo" quanto "direita")
> Esse funciona no Libretro?
Meus outros não funcionavam? 🤔 Bom, esse jogo é NROM puro, simplesinho, acredito que deve funcionar em qualquer emulador sim (nunca testei mas posso imaginar que os outros jogos, por usarem mappers mais complicados possam ter problema de compatibilidade)
> Esse ano não tem arte de IA no meu
Vou ver depois :)

Acho que é porque eu atualizo a cabeça primeiro e depois o rabo, daí a cabeça bateu no rabo ao mesmo tempo que ele saiu da frente. Talvez eu tente corrigir isso logo mais.
Great twist for the movement, i love that mashing a diagonal button (1, 3, 7 and 9) makes the snake go in diagonal without the hassle of going between two buttons and pressing them.
I also like that this game could be put in a NES cartridge and plays directly on the system.
Good game !
Cute twist on the movement! And the diagonal keysade we wonder of that how it worked back then but I really can't remember 😅
@kultuk the diagonal keys did work like that, yes (at least it used to work on my [Nokia 2280](https://www.nokiamuseum.net/nokia-2280---2003))
The _But Buttons_ game by @euler-moises was a good warm-up for this game. Nice job setting up the game in a way to be modular enough to support multiple level layouts, gameplay speeds, and more.
Having click/touch controls would be really nice I think, just have the thumb jump to the pressed button. Maybe making it NES compatible is why it was not implemented though?
Lastly, the snake swallowing animation was cute, I was pleasantly surprised that the large critters were edible.
@nbumgardner yes, with it being an actual NES game there's little I could do in terms of click/touch. To be honest, there *are* homebrew games that are able to be played with the SNES mouse (with some adapter I suppose?), but I've never implemented such thing before and I don't even know if that JS emulator supports it)
Nice little trip down the memory lane! 🐍 ☎️
Classic!
Memories coming back haha thank you for this small yet really well executed nostalgic game. Everything works perfectly find as intented, and the fact that you added mazes and cheat mode is a really cool plus. Congrats for your work !
Fun and charming entry, and the humor really landed for me. Impressive that it actually runs on NES too. Nice work!
Using the thumb was a great twist to this classic peace!
Hard nostalgia incoming :) Are these critters from a real phone game? Somehow the fat one looks really familiar.
What a clever throwback, I remember when my friends got their "newer" nokia phones with what I called "the weird version of snake with no walls" this took me back to a specific memory of playing that outside a coffee shop in Tallahass Florida 20 years ago. I have not thought about that night in a very long time. I enjoyed all of the mazes, the keypad and finger emulation was a delight to play with.
Thanks for sharing.
also, there is a Nokia specific JAM series on itch if you are interested in making more more Nokia/Nokia likes https://itch.io/jam/nokiajam8

What a fun twist to a classic game. Love the snake design and how it gets bigger where it eats things. Also adding mazes is a very good idea. Overall simple but very good entry, good job!
A good take on snake! I like how the indirect input increases difficulty and also adds a metaphysical layer to the game.
@captandrey yes, the critters exist in the original Nokia Snake II (it took me a while, between looking at old videos of people playing the original and checking other people's reimplementations of it, to figure out details like that 😅)
Really nostalgic! Having to move the thumb manually adds challenge to a game most would already be familiar with, so it's a clever way of increasing difficulty while also staying true to how we experienced it on an old phone.
You nailed the visuals. Looks great. A bit annoying that you have to basically double-press the direction you want to go and then also confirm it, but you can get used to it.
@retrific ... and that's why I had added Cheat Mode, I knew people may want to just play Snake after the novelty wears off 😅
Really impressive entry! A really really close recreation of the original, brought me back so many memories of my first cellphone! So good, such a classic! I really liked how you used the interface to mimic the actual cellphone. Even tho the idea of pressing the button feels really tactile, I feel that the gameplay gets a little annoying with the double input. It could have been amazing as an extra mode and the cheat mode be the default one. That said, Being able to use the corners to play enhanced so much the nostalgia to me! Overall a really impressive work, Thank you for the game! :)
[Thanks for submitting your game to stream!](https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2909045755?t=01h08m13s)
So nostalgic, playing snake like this. 😄 My favorite detail is the bump that the snake gets whenever I eat food. 🍎
Wow, an NES game! The control scheme is an interesting twist, although I found it quite hard to get used to. I had no idea diagonals were even a thing on nokia snake.. I don't have an NES but I played it on my 3DS so I could have a d-pad 😄 IMG_5223.jpg
And thanks for featuring our game on your unusual platforms post ❤️
Ha! A NES game mimicking a finger mimicking playing on a Nokia! A sweet take on the theme. I also really like indirect-control games. Controlling the finger, rather than the snake, was a really cool take on the old-tech theme. You got this right!
