Photography Inspired Snake Game - Capture the Moment - 08 March 2026

I’ve always loved retro games. There’s just something about those pixelated graphics and the clicky buttons. I recently decided to put together a small game with a little help from AI and JavaScript to build a quick tribute to the classics. The result is a game called Capture the Moment, a retro-inspired twist on the legendary Snake game.

Instead of hunting for apples, you have to snap up as many cameras as possible. It’s a simple, fast-paced nod to the games we grew up with. If you've got a few minutes to spare, give it a go and see how high a score you can "capture." Have fun!
