C51 Snakes - A Nokia inspired game built on 8051

Welcome to C51Snakes - The Nokia inspired Sankes game implemented on 8051 platform.
The game is built on AT89S51 MCU operating at 27MHz crystal frequency. The game uses
a 16 * 8 LED dot matrix display and five way keys for user interface. A dedicated
delay settings key provides one touch access to the delay settings mode where the
speed of the Snake can be adjusted. Highlights of the game are,

• As in the original game, the Snake grows in size as it snatches the eggs
  
• Eggs appear periodically on the screen at random pixels and will disappear
  if not snatched within a certain period of time
  
• The snake sees no boundaries at the edges of the display, will propagate
  in to any edge and enter from the opposite edge
  
• The Snake can be accelerated / decelerated on the fly
  
• There is also a separate delay settings mode to adjust the Snake's speed
  
• The game ends when the Snake collides with itself
  
• The total eggs snatched is then displayed as the game score
  
• The gaming console will hibernate if no user event occurs in 25secs! The
  game can be resumed by pressing external interrupt / master reset keys!
  

So, hurry! Build the hardware, burn the code and start gaming...
