Your bus gets longer with every passenger you pick up in Snakeybus, forcing you to constantly alter your route to keep from crashing into yourself.
Snakeybus offers a newly-ridiculous look at Snake. Instead of winding your poor serpents around trying to keep them from bumping into themselves, you’ll be guiding an entire line of city buses. Except these ones will be knocking traffic off the road and hurtling through the air as you try to keep yourself from crashing. This only gets harder with each passenger you pick up, too, as these add to your length. Before long, you’ll see your bus stretching out and coiling around the city, with a single accident bringing it all down.
The game features a handful of maps with unique themes and visual styles, as well as a few different kinds of buses depending on what you feel like driving. You can unlock new maps and buses based on how well you can drive without slamming into yourself, which is a nice touch. There’s also some online leaderboards if you want to see how long you can keep this silly thing going.
I wasn’t expecting a super-long bus to be such an entertaining sight, but the humor in driving these colossal transit vehicles is just wonderful. There’s just something about a long bus coiling around a city like a serpent in some superhero movie that’s endlessly entertaining to me. Well, that and the idea of what will happen when you accidentally slam a bus with a few hundred cars into itself.
Snakeybus is available now on Steam.
That sounds rad !
