Developer Creates the Nostalgic Nokia Snake Game for Raspberry Pi Pico

While we have seen a lot of Raspberry Pi projects in the by, a programmer named Hari Wiguna has created the cornball Nokia Ophidian game for his Raspberry Pi Pico. He wrote the game in MicroPython and the lawmaking for the game is available on GitHub.

Ophidian Game for Raspberry Pi Pico

Hari Wiguna's Raspberry Pi Pico hardware setup consists of five buttons to control the snake'due south movement and a 128 ten 64-pixel OLED display for seeing the game. The basic premise of the game remains the same – you lot die if you striking the walls or come across yourself. And the snake speeds up every bit it grows longer. What makes this implementation of the Snake game unique is that the snake slithers as it moves during gameplay.

"There are probably easier ways to implement this, only I really relish working within self-imposed constraints. I wanted it to be on the 128×64 pixel OLED that I have, and then I could not beget to waste screen real estate on big sprites. The sprites I use are only 4×4 pixels! I wanted it to exist written in MicroPython because I bask the interactivity and super fast no compile dev cycles," wrote Hari Wiguna in his Hackaday mail service.

If you desire to bank check out a video demonstration of this serpent game, you tin take a look at the YouTube video linked to a higher place. Moreover, the game is available on GitHub if you want to try it out on your device or desire to interact with the developer to add more features to this fun side project.
