The snake doesn’t get longer as it eats like in the game
(comment deleted)
Also the snake uses the area outside the grey raster. Unfortunately the "issues" feature is deactivated.
I guess that's not a bug but a feature, it has to do that to be able to handle some situations (e.g. a week where all days have more contributions than the "level" it's currently eating would block it from getting to the other side of the "playfield"). Still, there probably are some situations where it can't reach all the dots?
It looks like it prefers to eat cells in order but it can eat them out of order if going in order is impossible. I assume the timeline under the game is there to show how well it’s doing.
Those are the rules indeed.
It was the plan at some point. But it was a bit too hard to solve. (author here)
It ate my commit!

You could rewind it too.
Could be worked into a Santa delivering presents to houses :)
Is it a coincidence that the username is an anagram of "at plane"...?

yep it uses my github token to retrieve the calendar from the github api.

It seems like the traffic from HN eats my quota pretty fast!

Hi, I am the author. Thanks for submitting!
Very creative project, easy to use, and a great read me. Please don't get discouraged by others' negative comments.
Needs a share button and the animation doesn't play on it's own (I have to drag the scroll bar). Pretty cool though!
