    Fun video - you got nearly all of it right. The puzzle levels started in version 1.1 for Mac, so they were around early, and Armageddon was originally on one of my PC versions, not the deluxe one that was programmed by others. The game was also featured on the TV show Undeclared (they asked for Snood shirts and posters for their dorm rooms), in the movie Surviving Christmas with Ben Affleck, on SNL (Lorne Michaels plays still) and in a couple of commercials. Thanks for the retrospective. Fun to read all the comments also. There was even a Snood TV game (like one of those ones you plugged directly into the TV) sold on QVC for a while - pretty wild.

      The only question remains: What mac model did my dad use in the late 90's Before he switched over to PC and windows 98 in the millenium? I Belive it was a Power mac G1 or G2 of some sort. (It was the non-Tower variant, what was taht called?)

    • @andrewlampart

      This game was driving me crazy a few months ago. My brother and I both played it religiously when we were younger. One day the death song got stuck in my head (Volga Boatman?). He and myself were trying for weeks to remember the name. Spleef? Spoof? We couldn't remember.

    I attended Guilford College where Dave Dobson is a professor. Part of our freshman orientation class included a day in the computer lab playing Snood with Dobson present and talking about the game. I remember committing somewhat of a faux paux because I was unfamilliar with Snood and said to him "Oh, this is like "Dynomyte"...a game obviously ripped from Snood. I feel less bad after this video now that I know he was inspired by Bust A Move

      Did you know that the same song, performed by different artists, used to be in the charts? As companies and some artists wanted to retain more and more of the profits they pressed more heavily on copyright. Before music was a means of income compositions would have their lyrics changed and performed, like Blues Standards, where the tune would be the same but the lyrics would be different.

    • @AndrewTurnier
      @AndrewTurnier 6 років тому +21

      I went to Guilford College and one story I heard from Dave about snood was that he made the game with the idea that perhaps he would make enough money to take his wife out once a year for dinner.

    Oh man. My mom was *addicted* to Snood when I was growing up. She was a teacher and had tons of work to do every evening, and yet she stayed up till like 4 in the morning just so she could play Snood. She even kept a journal where she wrote down high scores.

    This game and Napster were on all the computers in the college lab around 1999-2001, with Elf Bowling during the holidays. Aside from having to clean up from all those ad/mal/spyware crap the students kept installing (like Gator eWallet), it was fun working as a lab assistant...even got paid for playing games like Starcraft & Snood!

    They had Snood installed on the Macs at our Primary School here in Australia. Why they chose to put such an amazingly addictive game on our PCS (Along with Bugdom, Spin Doctor, Bebop 2000 and Deimos Rising) is beyond me but I'm still hooked to this day.

  • @ParappatheRapper

    I haven't ever heard of Snood in particular, but I have seen other clones of Puzzle Bobble/Bust-A-Move. I remember spending quite a few hours playing a version that came on some Galaxy Of Games disc or other shareware compilation disc when I was younger. All I can really say now though is this:
    Flappy Snood

      @@dnkakusei Patents by themselves aren't particularly evidence that they're legally enforceable. As far as I'm aware, there's no precedent here for a gameplay patent being used (successfully) in an infringement lawsuit. Nintendo would have a bit of an uphill battle on this one---other games have done similar things prior to Eternal Darkness (MGS's Psycho Mantis fight, just as one example) so they'd have to prove that these aren't prior art, which would invalidate their patent.
