I made a Commodore 64 game! It's another remake of a classic!
You can download a .prg file from the "releases" tab.
To play the game on a real C64, you need a joystick plugged into port 2.
Use your favorite means of transferring data to a C64, for instance an IEC2SD.
At the BASIC prompt, enter LOAD"*",8, and then RUN.
At the title screen, press the fire button to start the actual game.
It also works in an emulator.
For instance, using VICE on Linux, you can start it using x64 -joydev2 1 snek.prg. The joydev2 1 configured the numpad to control emulated joystick plugged into the emulated port 2 of you emulated C64.
The keys 2, 4, 6, 8 on your numpad will be mapped to the four directions, and 0 will be the fire button.
