Links, repository & detailsAbout
URL Snake is a browser-based implementation of the classic Snake game that renders entirely by rewriting the browser's address bar, with no page graphics used at all. The author describes it as 'kind of a joke' project, playable directly at the linked page.
Getting started
It's playable directly at the project's web page with no installation needed, though playability can vary by browser depending on how much of the URL is shown, whether the browser allows rapid URL changes, or whether it escapes the Braille characters used to draw the game.
Known issues & limitations
- compatibility: Game may be unplayable on some browsers due to URL display limitations, character escaping issues, or browser restrictions on URL changes.
