It also has NO ads. NO coins to buy and is not subscription based.

Need to kill some time at the doctor's office? Fire up Snake and see how many apples you can eat. In line at the DMV? Take to the sky and fly Ollie around the world and back in Ollie Soars.

I love the fact that I’m now in 70th place in Snake on #OlliesArcade. The game gets exponentially harder with every apple you eat beyond a certain point so I have deep respect for these top players. Just bravo! 🐍👏😎

@gedeonm I am so close to being dethroned. I need to try to increase my lead!

@rodrigoescobar Dude, you are Batman or something. Totally amazing. If you can record the screen while you play I’m sure we’d all LOVE to see how the heck you’re doing it. Are you playing with the keyboard too or a controller?

@gedeonm Lol. I also don’t know how. I’ve tried again and I’ve made it only to low 50s. I only play with my iPhone or iPad without any external peripherals. I would probably use a controller if it were available on the tv.

This game has some philosophical things going on. Something like short term reward become your own destruction in the future 😂😂

Really fun stuff!

@rodrigoescobar So very glad to hear it, that makes all of us happy. If you have a minute to leave Ollie a rating or review in the store it would be most appreciated. Every bit helps. Thank you.

@gedeonm I've already given it 5 stars but I'll write a review later on :)

@gedeonm two small feature requests for snake, please:

An option to pause the game
The possibility see/save the state of the last game I played, please

Show threadGed MaheuxSep 5, 2023
@rodrigoescobar noted! We had LONG LONG debates about if we should include a pause on all 3 of Ollie’s games. Will make a note to debate it some more :-D
Show threadRodrigo EscobarSep 5, 2023

@gedeonm I figured it was intentional but if it helps the debate I’d say that I would need it only for a couple of minutes tops.

If your collective concern was to pause for a long time maybe you could set that pause to have a limit of X amount of minutes and the game would end when it expires?
