That game is super addicting. You will need a mouse. You will have fun testing out various bait-and-switch moves you can use to get noobs. Once you get good enough to make it into the top 10, everyone starts trying to kill you and it becomes exponentially more difficult to stay alive. I used to edit the script to increase my event-out rate a little bit to give me an edge, but I'm not sure it worked, seeing as the server could just throttle the events anyway. Once your snake gets long enough, you can enclose other snakes in a loop and torture them as they face their impending demise. Fun times.

We ran a hackday where we attempted to build a multiplayer snake over websockets using Django channels. I don’t think I touched on it in the write up, but websockets/tcp is the wrong choice for this kind of game.

Disclaimer: it’s not very good. It was a one day project.
