This game was specially made for the GitHub's Game Off 2015 : The Game Has Changed

About

We made a game from the most simple snake game, to the most complicated we can do in 3 weeks, in Tron style (reference to the track "The game has changed" on Tron : Legacy Soundtrack by Daft Punk https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DmKDVvIEhBYtr).
