This project uses the Capstone project starter repo in the Udacity C++ Nanodegree Program. The code for this repo was inspired by this excellent StackOverflow post and set of responses.
This project adds gameplay functionality for different "food" types for the snake:
- Yellow food ics "regular" food. When eaten by the snake, the snake speeds up the snake slightly.
- Orange food is "speedy" food. When eaten by the snake, the snake speeds up twice as much as it speeds up when it eats yellow food.
- Purple food is "slow" food. When eaten by the snake, the snake slows down slightly.
- Green food is "filling" food. When eaten by the snake, the user gets double points compared to when the snake eats other types of food.
- Red food is "poison" and ends the game when the snake eats it.
