Professor Snake

Run fast. Think faster.

In Professor Snake, you play as a speedy snake running in a jungle area, collecting letters to form correct words. It’s a 2D top-down endless runner with a fun twist—you're not just dodging, you're also solving word puzzles on the go!

The snake runs automatically, and your job is to guide it toward the right letters in the correct order. Each time you complete a word, you earn points. But be careful:

  • Every 10 seconds, the last letter you collected drops off, and you’ll need to grab it again before continuing.

  • If you pick the wrong letter or collect letters in the wrong order, you’ll lose points.

As you keep running, the game gets harder—faster speed, trickier words. So it’s not just about being quick, it’s about thinking ahead and staying sharp.

This game was REALLY fun! Is the only way to get rid of a letter to wait for the timer to drop it? Sometimes I accidentally collect a letter and have to wait for the timer to drop it again. I like the game idea though, really creative!

Yes, that way i am increasing the difficulty over time as player have to avoid wrong letters and if collected then have to move without collecting anything until wrong letters drop out.
