Snake

Intro

Get ready for a vibrant and modern twist on an absolute gaming classic! In this sleek version of Snake, your goal is deceptively simple: guide your ever-growing snake around the screen to eat the food that appears. Each piece of food you consume not only increases your score but also makes your snake longer, adding to the challenge. But be warned: the longer your snake gets, the harder it becomes to navigate the board without a catastrophic collision with the walls or, even worse, your own tail!

How to control

Maneuvering your snake is designed to be simple and responsive. If you're playing on a desktop computer, use the four Arrow Keys (Up, Down, Left, Right) to change the snake's direction of travel. If you're on a mobile device or a tablet, control is even more direct—just swipe anywhere on the screen in the direction you want the snake to go. Remember the golden rule of Snake: you cannot reverse direction directly (e.g., from going right to left), so you must plan your path carefully to avoid getting trapped.

Tips

• Patrol the Perimeter: When your snake starts getting long, it's often a safer strategy to move along the edges of the game board. This reduces the risk of accidentally running into your own tail, which is more likely to happen in the crowded open center of the board.
• Think in S-Shapes: Avoid making sharp, tight turns that can quickly box you in. Instead, try to move in wide, sweeping S-curves across the board. This pattern helps to keep your tail organized and ensures you always have plenty of open space to maneuver and escape tight spots.
• Don't Be Greedy: Sometimes the food will appear in a risky or difficult-to-reach location. It's often better to take a longer, safer route to the food rather than making a quick, risky turn that could trap you. Patience is a key virtue for achieving a high score.
• Know Your Limits: The primary challenge of the game is managing your own length. As the snake gets longer, your available space to move shrinks. Always be aware of where your tail is, and more importantly, anticipate where it will be in the next few moves to avoid collisions.
