Hey folks Snake made its way to Ovi Store and it seems to have some sort of "update" to the OS I wonder what is it? :) Any ideas?

Hmmm, everyone who has this, please do let us know if it looks like it's actually better than the Snake games in the repos.

The 3D version of Snake for the N95 was excellent. I bet this isn't as good lol.

I bought it. Simple and fun. That's all I can say. Don't expect mind blowing graphics. But it has a funny cartoopnish style. Kinda suits it. I love it. A real time killer and worth it IMO. Could have done with some animations though :/

No Python applications allowed in the Ovi Store. :/

Eh?

My point is it would not be in the Ovi Store if it required Python.

This is very playable. It is also very basic, not MS-BASIC but very few frills.

If you paid for it once, you can download it for free the next time.

I just changed my avatar a minute ago. The old one was George Clinton. The new one is Steve Mobs, from the 'Mapple' episode of The Simpsons.

done that before, but on my 4th or 5th time downloading, a warning popped out saying "You have reached the maximum downloads allowed. If you received this message in error, contact customer support or repurchase the application"

I contacted NCS but as expected, i get nothing. :D

but this snake app looks awesome!!!!!

There is a Snake game amongst the QML examples: http://doc.qt.nokia.com/4.7-snapshot...ive-snake.html

It looks better than this one and is free. :D

Re: [Ovi Store] Snake is avaiable
 
I already paid too much for the N900 and got way less than i expected from Nokia, i won't be buying that game i should've gotten at no additional cost.

JamesBond@ge 2011-01-04 00:47

Re: [Ovi Store] Snake is avaiable
 
That game looks rubbish anyway lol. The version I had on my S40 Nokia 6288 looks better rofl!

If you know where to look between download and installation you can find the deb file for the app you purchased and copy it somewhere safe. I can't actually remember where it gets saved to, but I did a search of the filesystem after I downloaded the AngryBirds level pack to find the deb for it so I could store it for safe keeping, because you just can't trust these app stores will be around forever to let you download again.

when appman opens and shows "details" and "continue," the .deb file that is downloaded should be on /var/tmp on what i've searched, unfortunately, that option works only on free apps,

When I bought the AngryBirds level packs I think they were on MyDocs, possibly /home/user/MyDocs/.tmp but I'm not sure. I used "find" to search the whole filesystem and find it.

you rock yo!

i totally forgot that on /.osso folder, i edit the hildon-application-manager, setting clear-packages-after-install to 0 and download-packages-on-mmc to 1 so it will definitely go to /home/user/MyDocs/.tmp.

i tried downloading angry birds level pack 3 and its in MyDocs/.tmp

Thanks :)

Downloading Snake :D

this does not look good. if it would look like the dos game nibbles or would emulate the green screen of nokia 3210 then i would consider buying it in this plain 2D style.
