Nothing has released a new Android app called Nothing Community Widgets that will highlight home screen tools and games co-created by its users. The first widget it includes is a recreation of Snake which was the most memorable of the three games pre-installed on the Nokia 6110 when it launched 26 years ago.
Although the original game was played by pressing buttons as cellphones lacked touchscreens, the snake in Nothing’s version is steered using directional screen swipes, while a double tap pauses the action, according to Retro Dodo. But the gameplay is the same, with players scoring points by eating red dots while trying to avoid colliding with themselves as the snake grows longer and longer.
10/10!

Note: These are just concepts, The idea of this project was to explore the possibilities, bringing them to life is an incredibly hard job.
Thanks everyone for the support❤️
