Abstract

For our second game we are going to re-create the classic Snake game. Snake has been with us since the late 1970s and, if you had a Nokia phone, you probably had a version of the game on it. You control a snake, and you move around the screen using the cursor keys. You must eat fruit to grow. You are not allowed to touch the outside walls or yourself. Did I mention that you are growing? See Figure 16-1.
