J-Bird came first, Q-Bert is just a lame shitty ripoff.

BTW, to kill the snake, you have to jump next to a pair of wings next to the pyramid, and when the snake comes close, jump onto the wings & fly to the top of the pyramid and the snake will die.
You can also eat the blue tomato, it'll freeze time for a few seconds.

J-Bird - 1983.

Q*Bert - 1982.

Sorry, Reactor, Q*Bert won.
