In this repository a C++20 implementation of the popular snake game, using the SFML graphics library is provided. Audio effects are enabled and a few customizable options and scores are available.
During the gameplay some game files will be created in your home directory under the snake-game_files folder. These are files which will save game scores and options.
⚠️ if you are connecting more than one screens in your pc there may be small graphics glitches due to SFML doesn't supporting multiple screens yet.
