This is the game snake coded for a PyBadge LC. I coded this in CircuitPython version 10.0.3. The version of CircuitPython used is a slightly modified version for slight efficiency increase and fixed stage and ugame library's. I originally was planning on using Stage which is why I contacted adafruit to get them to get it fixed and added it to my circuit python.
This snake game features lots of options. There are 9 backgrounds, 11 customizable snake colors, 10 speed options, shadows, and a face which are all customizable through the built in settings menu which you can access by pressing the select button. When you hold the B button when resetting or plugging in or turning on it puts in to PyBadge mode where the settings and high score are saved after each round. in the terminal when plugged in it prints out a log for debugging:
