Remember spending hours playing Snake on an indestructible Nokia brick?
19 RSVP'd
Remember spending hours playing Snake on an indestructible Nokia brick? We’re bringing the classic game back... but this time, you aren't using your thumbs. You're using code! 🐍💻
GDG on Campus University of Malta has teamed up with ICTSA to bring you an epic Battlesnake Workshop & Tournament series. Whether you are a first-year writing your first lines of code or a seasoned developer looking to test your algorithms, this event is the perfect break from regular coursework.
What is Battlesnake? Battlesnake is a multiplayer programming game where your code controls a snake in a live arena. Instead of using a D-pad, you’ll build a live web server that uses logic, pathfinding, and strategy to keep your snake alive. The goal? Find food, trap your opponents, avoid the walls, and be the last snake slithering on the big screen!
