How does this snake game feel so smooth?
The trick seems to be that the snake has a head that can rotate around a point of its body (let's call it its neck). In early turns, the head starts rotating immediately but will reach a 90ยฐ angle only when its neck is aligned with the grid, as the body of the snake from the neck to the tail continues moving in the same direction. For late turns, it's actually the same. The tip of the head (the mouth) has passed the intersection but not the neck. So, the head can rotate quickly to reach 90ยฐ as the neck reaches the intersection. The animation of the eyes and tongue of the snake also help distracting you from noticing the rotation of the head (the eyes keep a constant direction despite the rotation of the head, and the tongue attracts your attention on a point ahead of the head).

I looked into the speedrun history of Google Snake and it was way more interesting than i thought, a lot of hours were put into this video but it was worth it :)
It causes me physical pain when people think that Nokia invented Snake. Or that people leap straight from Blockade, thinking that nothing came in-between. (And yes, I'm very aware that this is completely irrelevant to point of the video!) Here's just one example from 15 years prior: https://bbcmicro.co.uk/game.php?id=69 What Snake on Nokia did was put gaming on mobile phones. And of course that version of the game has become iconic, but it's not the idea of Snake itself that was revolutionary. More on reddit.com

r/gamedesign on Reddit: How does this snake game feel so smooth?
May 15, 2021 -

Google's Snake game has very instant response time and it's baffling me.

I assume standard snake things. one way or another there is a 0-1 window for input per-square.

Google's Snake is smooth, and it seems as though you get an INSTANT response from the snake regardless of whether you tap early or late. Tapping late seems to snap, though it's hard to observe. Tapping early still feels instant, but you can see the snake animating to reach the center and turn, how on earth does this still feel instant?

If we go back to the drawing board, a late-turn should NOT feel smooth, considering this is what's happening:

https://imgur.com/a/GfhQoTz

How can we get instant response from early turns too? I mean without forcing the entire tail to play instant catchup? Input at either of the following markers seem like they cause problems when you want both smooth-snake movement and instant response like the Google game:

https://imgur.com/a/coFFd7l

Or are they just snapping all the way and using MoveToward() functions to get the image to catchup?

They can play the sound instantly, and they have the eyes on the snake, that provide feedback by rotating. Having those happen right away, even if it takes a moment for the snake's direction to change. It feels like with the late tap snap, it does rotate the eyes instantly, but with the early taps, it rotates over a couple frames. Maybe those are how many frames it takes to reach the centre of the square and so will start moving in the new direction. And of course, the late tap for one square intrudes on the early tap for the next square. So if you extend the window for the late tap, you actually have less early tap to contend with. Extending the window of the late tape might be coyote time for snake games.
