This is cool, the only issue I have is it seems like my arrow keys have an input latency? Like I press a key and have to wait 500ms until something happens?
Thanks for the feedback! On my work machine I do not have this issue, response time maybe 70ms or so.
But I have seen it working very slowly on not so fast computers or browsers. Could you tell me a bit more about your browser (which + version) and your operating system (Windows, Mac or Linux), and the type of hardware you are running it on. Desktop, Laptop or Tablet, also high end, or old / low end.
If you don't want to to disclose this, this I understand, but any information is appreciated, and gives me clues to what the minimum requirements for the game are. Also as a DM, if you don't want this information here in the chat!
The background here is, that Snake runs on B3, which has run fine so far on plenty of tested devices, but not all of them. I'll work on optimizing it, but also I want to publish what is the minimum requirements, so people do not get disapointed.
Hi! If you won't mind, that would be awesome. I am rather limited with how many machines I have myself to test it on. So any tests on other hardware/browser is very much appreciated :)
Thanks! Ok, I need to figure out how to make it quicker on slower machines. But till then I think the difference seems to be the graphics cards, and windows version. I think it might be the slow graphics card on your older machine. Have you tried to run on Chrome on the older one, and both on Firefox and Chrome, you can enable / disable hardware acceleration. I find that depending on your hardware , the hardware acceleration helps or hinders the browser.

NP. This computer is almost 10 years old now I think. I've swapped PSUs, maxed out RAM, swapped HDs with SSDs, etc.
I have a much faster machine down in the nerd cave, I can test it there too if you like.

NP. Works great on the newer PC.
