Deluxe Snake | | |
English:
At first this game may look like an ordinary snake clone, with average graphics. But it is the best snake game I ever played. The reason for it is the very polished gameplay.
Like all snake games in Deluxe snake you have to collect the numbers from 1 to 9, you snakes lenght will increase because of them.
The most unique feature which make this game diferent from other snakes is the possibility to cut you snake. All you have to do is to reach your tail with your head or in other words bite in your own tail. This will make your snake 2 times shorter and also few mushrooms (bad items) will appear. It requires some practice to cut you snake easily.
There are many game modes: you can change game speed, lifes, borders or partitial, arena size and other things. All the modes have seperate higscore tables containing the 20 best scores.
Controls:
Default controls are relative, so this means that there are only 2 directions (keys). You may select absolute (4 directions) controls in OPTIONS/INPUT menu
| left | turn left |
| right | turn right |
| left ctrl+direction | double turn |
| Left Shift | Reverse direction travelled in (only works when you have the Reverse bonus item)? |
| Space | Detonate cyan bomb (prioritize destruction of cyan bricks) |
| Alt | Detonate grey bomb (prioritize destruction of grey bricks) |
| A | Buy Antidote bonus item(only in Deluxe Cash mode) |
| D | Buy Diet Pill bonus item(only in Deluxe Cash mode) |
| X | Buy Multiplier bonus item(only in Deluxe Cash mode) |
| Return Buy life | Buy life (only in Deluxe Cash mode) |
Item information
Good items
| Megafood | food item with a plus sign on, it is called a megafood. It is worth more than regular food, and increases snake length quite a bit. (Tip: It is never any easier to bite tail than when you`ve just eaten a megafood) |
| Stone food | Stone food are round and grey, and count upwards from 1 to 9 before turning into grey bricks. Luckily, they only spawn when number of bricks is above three, and you can eat them safely while they`re counting. (appears only later in game) |
| Frogs and gifts | Eating a frog or a gift gives you a bonus item. Frogs move around randomly, so they`re not as easy to catch as gifts, but much more common. |
Bonus items
| Antidote | protects against mushroom effects |
| Candy Canes | eat the candy for bonus points. bonus for eating all candy canes. |
| Diet Pill | food eaten reduces length |
| Doubler | 2x scores, 1.5x lengths |
| Dynamite | collect three sticks to assemble a bomb. Use the bomb to destroy 12 points worth of bricks. A cyan brick is worth one point while a grey is worth 3. A Cyan Bomb will prioritize destruction of cyan bricks while a Grey Bomb will try to destroy any grey bricks first. |
| Reverse | use to reverse direction travelled in (i.e. tail becomes head) |
| Shields | are automatically used to protect you from collisions with bricks. One shield is required to survive a cyan brick collision, while a grey brick collision requires two. |
| Tripler | 3x scores, 2x lengths |
Bad items
| Red mushroom | Eating a will poison the snake causing control keys to be reversed for a short period of time denoted by the poison bar at the bottom right corner of the screen. |
| Blue mushroom | Eating a will cause two cyan bricks to be spawned in random locations. |
| Mushroom generator | When number of mushrooms increases to ten and above a mushroom generator will eventually be spawned. It will spawn red mushrooms at a slow rate until it is removed. You can remove it by eating it, which will spawn 3-6 new mushrooms, or reducing the number of mushrooms to less than ten, which will make it disappear. |
| Cyan bricks | You will lose shield or life if do not have any shield and touch this type of bricks |
| Grey bricks | You will lose life if touch this type of bricks |
There is a 30% chance of food turning into red or blue mushrooms if not eaten quickly enough.
Antidote, Diet Pill, Doubler, Tripler, and mushroom effects last 15 seconds with normal gamespeed.
