Snake and Commits
Product signal · 2026-08-09
What it does
Turns your GitHub contribution graph into a real, winnable game of Snake: a pure animated SVG (CSS, no JavaScript, zero dependencies, one Python file) that pathfinds to your commit cells, avoids its own body, grows as it eats, and is added to your GitHub profile via a single GitHub Action.
Who it’s for
GitHub developers and users who want an animated Snake game rendered over their contribution graph and embedded in their profile README.
Why it entered the Feed
A Reddit SideProject post described a working, self-contained weekend project with a concrete GitHub repository, real gameplay (pathfinding, self-collision avoidance, board clearing), zero dependencies, one-file Python implementation, and a single GitHub Action install path, giving a clearly identifiable product.
