If you have been using mobile phones for a few years now, you will surely remember the iconic snake game, which was seen on some of the classic Nokia phones.
Maybe you didn’t have the classic telephone Nokia and you did not enjoy the original snake game, but subsequently a multitude of these versions have been released that you have been able to enjoy not only on mobile phones, but also even in the browser.
And a developer has managed to create a new version so compact which has managed to compress it to just 56 bytessmall enough to be encoded in a single QR code.
So reducing the snake game to just 56 bytes has required certain sacrifices, something that you will be able to enjoy in the online version that the developer has made available.
The mistake is that the snake game in this compact version, if it reaches a certain length, devours itself.
On the other hand, don’t expect to see any drawing of the snake in the game, since to condense it as little as possible, any design has been dispensed with.
There also seems to be certain problems with the issue of compatibility, since although it works well in the web version that is available, it does not seem to work well in other versions such as the original hardware.
In recent years, there has been a kind of competition on the Internet for developers to create a snake game in QR format as compact as possible.
It started with a first version of 2953 bytes, and even the developer of the current record itself condensed it to 85 bytes in 2023.
But as we said, he was able to beat his own record, and now this new version of the snake game in QR only has a size of 56 bytes.
If you want to enjoy it, simply access this website and you can control the snake with the cursor on your keyboard.
