Confetti Snake
Snake, played on a cross-stitch pattern. The food is confetti: the lone stitches scattered through a chart made from a photo. Eat as many as you can before you hit the edge or your own tail.
Arrow keys or WASD on a computer, swipe or the arrows on a phone. Space pauses.

What is confetti?
In cross stitch, confetti are single stitches of a colour with no neighbour of the same colour. Each one means starting a thread, making one cross and finishing the thread again, so a chart full of them is slow and fiddly to stitch.
Photos make lots of confetti, because every fleck of light and shadow becomes its own colour. Knytstudio cleans them up when it converts a photo, and the editor's confetti tool fixes the rest with one click. Or with one game.
Play it on your own pattern
Turn a photo into a cross-stitch pattern, open the confetti tool and press Play Snake. Every confetti stitch the snake eats is removed from your pattern, if you say yes at the end.
