Introducing Slither (v0.1, Early Access)

I’ve been making a little Snake game as an effort to experiment with hand-drawn, scanned-in graphics in games and to learn how to make games for iOS and Android with DragonRuby GTK.

This v0.1 release is my progress so far—just a basic Snake game with custom graphics. The next release, v0.2, will focus on getting it working nicely on touch devices.

Slither is dedicated to the public domain and is an educational freeware project.

What’s to come:

• More polish
• Grid display
• Tutorial
• Difficulty (speed) setting
• Music & more sfx
• Mobile builds! (will be free)
• Ouroborus mode where you can continue to play if you eat your tail; essentially bonus round!

Anyway, enjoy this little game! I’m having fun making it, and I’m learning, which is what matters most to me right now.
