Title: Nibbler-Snake
Post by: ztrumpet on November 18, 2009, 04:17:43 pm

I made a snake game in the past 24 hours!  :D

Use right (clockwise) and left (counter-clockwise) to steer.  Press clear for quick quit.

oooh nice that seems pretty fast considering it does that many directions! I wonder what kind of code peopl use in BASIC to calculate the snake direction that quick? I never messed with maths enough to discover myself x.x

Mostly I'm using sin and cosine.  I use two lists and four variables to track where the snake is.

If anybody wants the code, it's yours.  Just post here so I can smile. :)

Great work in a good timing.
Amazing speed. Never underestimate TI-BASIC...

I remembers seeing this as an assembly program "uncle worm" and thinking to myself, this is one of those assembly programs that just can't we converted to basic.  ;D

That's funny how many ASM games thought that way were recently written in BASIC, some without libs

It truly is a proof to the progress Basic has come! :D
