Control the snake to collect fruits and avoid obstacles.

Collecting the fruits will increase your score and make your snake grow.

Watch out for power-ups such as slow motion, don't grow, shrink, score multipliers and extra lives (Easy and Normal difficulty only).

The game can keep track of your high scores using the save features on libfat compatible cards (NDS) and savegame (GBA).

Troubleshooting

Q: The game crash each time i enable the save feature.

Make sure you patched your game if your card doesn't patch it automatically and if the card supports homebrew.

Q: When i start the game, there's no music or the music keeps playing even if I turn it off in the title menu.

It seems to be a problem with Maxmod on some cards, can't solve it, sorry.
