Load and start the game:
NEW (&5100+1676)
CLOAD M"SNAKE"; &5100
CALL &5100
Keys:
A : turn 90º left
D : turn 90º right
Game: In this fast-paced game, you must guide
a snake to the exit while avoiding obstacles.
The game runs on a PC-1500 +4K RAM and is entirely written in
assembly language.
Launch the program in RUN mode by entering CALL &5100. A
scrolling title screen appears during a few seconds, and the
games starts. The PC-1500 displays the playing field, your points
("P:xxxx"), game level L ("L:x") and the
number of remaining snakes ("S:x"). After a 9-to-0
countdown, the snake appears on the left and advances
automatically. Use "A" to make a 90º counterclockwise
turn, and "D" to make a 90º counterclockwise turn. You
must avoid the obstacles, the snake's tail, and the field limits.
If you succeed, you jump to the next level (more difficult) and
get 100xL points. Have fun....
