Interesting side note: Coleco had a version of Slither for their gaming console which shipped with a "Roller Controller" which was pretty innovative at the time. ColecoVision crashed and burned, too, of course.

A relative worked there and so my family had access to many prototype games that never made it into stores. But I know for a fact "Slither" was on the shelves as my copy was a retail package. I enjoyed playing it at the time, especially with the track ball.
