snakes for OS X dashboard

I wasted about 20 minutes playing the above previewed game of Snake. Yes, you’re looking at an OS X Dashboard version of the popular Snake game popularized by the Nokia mobile handsets. Grab your own copy of the widget directly from VanillaSoap Design. While you’re there, check out the various widgets – BitSticks Dashboard bittorent client, Capture, and miniPatience to name a few. All of the widgets are top notch and feature incredibly detail oriented designs. Not meaning to leave Windows users out of the loop, here’s a version to keep you company. Not as aqualicious, but suitable for the extremely boring portions of your day.

    I don’t get the headline reference.

  2. ME says:

    It’s a reference to the movie “Snakes on a Plane” where Samuel Jackson says something like “I’m sick of these motherf***ing snakes on this motherf***ing plane!”

    Snakes on a Plane… Poor execution mocking the movie. Great Dashboard widget though.

  4. Wash Jones says:

    Never heard of it… except on every blog on the planet. I was being sarcastic, which I now know is very hard to do using a keyboard.

    popularized by nokia phones?

    maybe that was a joke…but if not….there were so many versions of Snake popular on so many platforms… I remember NIBBLES.BAS that I believe came standard with MSDOS 5…and the old windows 3 version of snake…

    fancy widgets though

    The first version I saw was in the early 1980s. It was called Snake then too, and it was on a Commodore PET 4032. I believe it was written by Jim Butterfield.
