Snake Game is an enhanced and modified version of the popular JavaCave game, where players control a snake to eat food and grow longer without colliding with the walls or their own body.
I recently tried out the newest version of the Javacave game and I must say, I am thoroughly impressed. This improved version of the game runs on the QtRuby framework, making the gameplay experience smoother and more enjoyable.
To install the game, all you need to do is download the file and run 'chmod +x snake(gl).rb'. Voila, the game is ready to be played! As for requirements, the game needs Qt3, Ruby and QtRuby bindings. I use the latest versions of these requirements and they work without a hitch. However, if you have an older version that isn't compatible, just let the developers know and they'll resolve the issue.
The only difference between the 'normal' version and the OpenGL version is that the latter doesn't flicker. The code is almost identical and the only change is that the OpenGL version uses a QGLWidget instead of a QWidget. However, it does require a working OpenGL setup. The developers are considering making additional changes to the game in the future to see if there's a noticeable improvement in performance.
Overall, I would highly recommend trying out this game. It's a fun and engaging experience, and the improved framework makes all the difference in terms of gameplay.
