Game Classification

Snake Race is a combination between a snake game, and a constant scrolling game (such as a Shoot 'em up game). Unlike other snake games, there is no possible way to turn around, the snake can only be led in two directions; right-up, or left-up. Also unlike other snake games, the snake will not die instantly if it hits rocks blocking it paths. Instead some of it's length will be spent in order to drill through these barriers. In addition to the classic power-up where the snake grows, there are power-ups to speed up, or down the movement, as well as some only for more points. Since growing longer can be compared to getting more health in other types of games, the game actually become easier when getting long.

Unless the player dies by spending all of the snake's length, the game will end after a while, depending on what level is selected. A high score is determined based on how many power-ups the snake was able to eat. The score is also constant granting point as long as the snake is alive. Other bonuses may also grant points.
