Captain Disaster the Computer Game is the main home of the Captain Disaster adventure games and related projects by Dave Seaman. The site brings together information on the games themselves, along with screenshots, trailers, walkthroughs, media coverage and occasional side projects. Most of the focus is on comedy adventure gaming, with a mixture of freeware releases, commercial titles and experimental smaller works. No generative AI is used in any of the Captain Disaster games. I do experiment with AI in other contexts, and where I've blogged about these, I clearly indicate this.

New game released! - AGSnake: The Last Bite

For reasons beyond my understanding, I've wanted to make a Snake game in AGS for years. Needing a small side-project to help me focus my brain for the last development stint of Captain Disaster 3, I decided now was the time to make it. I had fun working out the game mechanics, how to track snake music and direction, collisions etc - yes you heard me, I found it FUN! - anyway, I added a few features to hopefully make it more fun, like power ups / downs and 2-player cooperative mode. 

 

Hope you enjoy it!


Incidentally, I subtitled it "The Last Bite" because it turns out that another AGS user had the idea of developing a Snake game with the name AGSnake - albeit, 14 years later, that hasn't been released (but don't give up hope, you never know!).



Editor's Note (24.04.26) - the game was nominated for Best Non-Adventure Game and Best Programming in the 2025 AGS Awards. It won neither, but the games that beat it were most definitely worthy winners, so I'm not complaining :-) To see the winners, check out this post.
