Thanks
The site is build with a royalte free template, and its simplicity made it easy to implement it.
Have you been in holidays for exactly one month?

Hi,
the game is currenly developed for Windows, but the middleware (Python-Ogre) is fully compatible with Linux too. Even Mac OS, IIRC. I'd really like to support these OS's as well in the future.
I need to think about what i could send you. Sending you the .pyc (compiled files) should be possible i guess.
Please let me look into this for a bit

Ok, cool, but note that i have nearly no idea about python, the only thing I did with it was to code a Blender plugin.

Hi all,
i'm happy to let you know that the snake has escaped its cage!
Here's some latest screenies showing Cegui in action:
^^ Login screen (full-game only)
^^ Online highscore access
^^ Quickstart from any unlocked world
^^ A sunny day at the beach
For a free demo and purchase options, please visit my
Snake game homepage.
@pompei: i haven't forgotten about your linux request. Supporting multiple platforms is something for which i now have time to (re)consider.
Thanks for reading

Looks very good! I will dl the demo later today. Please increase the size of the screenshots on the webpage though!
p.s. that snake remindes me of the snake boss in zelda!

Thanks both
@jamarr: the gallery will indeed get an update, which will allow to view full-size images. But getting this game out of the door was our highest prio

Hi all,
This is an update about my own snake game. As of this month, it is optimized to run on netbooks / mini-laptops.
When the game detects this, it will fall back to a low-end mode, to keep the game running with a safe fps.
For the Cegui part it means that i have re-created most screens, because netbooks really have a very low resolution,
which especially makes things difficult to fit vertically.
The update has been tested on two netbooks with N270 Atom processor and Intel 945 chipset.
Here's a two screens:
^^ Acer Aspire One
^^ Samsung NC10
Visit the
Snakeworlds for netbooks homepage for details and a Free Demo.
Thanks for reading!
