Elvis is a snake that eats peanut butter and banana sandwiches. Elvis moves automatically and his direction is changed with the arrow buttons. Elvis grows longer with each sandwich eaten . Game ends when Elvis hits a wall or collides with his body, for example, turns back on himself. As Elvis gets longer it is more and more difficult for his head to avoid his body. How many sandwiches can you make Elvis eat before he collides with himself or a wall? If you get really good, there is a option to make Elvis move faster. I have considered doing this automatically as the score increases, but have not.

Elvis is similar to snakes that have been implemented on other platforms.

I was thinking about having a go at snake last week but you’ve beaten me to it. Looks good, I’m sure The King would be pleased if he saw it!
