How you think, is it a good idea to use Obi Rope to create Snake Pass like character?
I think it can be problems with something like muscles, because Snake is something between rod and rope, because it can try to keep shape, but despite rod - any shape.
Maybe I'm wrong and all these problems can be solved using Obi Rope?
Judging from the videos, you could use a rod to do this. Note that rods do not have to be rigid. You can control their bending, twisting, shearing stiffness and plasticity. Think of them as a "more powerful" rope, however they can also behave like rope.
The "snake-like" behavior in the video probably comes from imposing a custom constraint on particles: they have to follow the path of the previous particle in the body, up to some percentage. At 0% they behave freely, like a rope. At 100%, they follow the exact path taken by the snake's head. You can implement this by adjusting particle velocities.
